Saigon Culinary Experience

Bánh Mì , Bún Bò and More Sample a range of authentic Vietnamese dishes as you travel through Ho Chi Minh City. Transfer from the port to the city center and head first to sample a bánh mì , a snack-size serving of meat, pickled vegetables and herbs in a mini baguette. Next, sample Vietnamese coffee at a local café; its unique brewing method and distinctive flavor profile result in a strong, concentrated brew. Pass by iconic buildings including the Reunification Palace and the Central Post Office en route to taste bánh xèo , a sizzling pancake stuffed with meat and vegetables. Finally, continue to another restaurant for a serving of bún bò , a spicy beef noodle soup, followed by a traditional Vietnamese dessert. Your culinary journey concludes with a visit to Ben Thanh Market, where you may purchase a cherished memento of your trip before returning to your ship. * Moderate - Walking portions may be long and somewhat challenging with occasional step-ups, stairs and inclines. Total time walking or standing normally ranges from 1.5 to 3 hours.
