Experience Details

Water Puppet Show & Saigon River Dinner Cruise


Your journey begins with the famous Water Puppet Show, a unique and centuries-old Vietnamese art form. Watch as skilled puppeteers bring traditional legends and folklore to life over water, using hidden rods and accompanied by live music and narration. It’s an enchanting performance that offers a vivid look into Vietnam’s cultural soul.


After the show, step aboard a beautiful ship for a relaxing dinner cruise along the Saigon River. Glide past the city’s glittering skyline and enjoy a delicious buffet or à la carte Vietnamese dinner. Soak in the atmosphere with live music, scenic views, and a peaceful night on the water.


Return to your hotel by 22:00 with beautiful memories and a full heart.


Note: If water puppet tickets are sold out, we’ll offer a city tour by motorbike with dinner cruise as an exciting alternative, or refund the ticket fee in cash. Please contact us in advance to check availability and confirm your schedule.
