Shore excursion: Phu My port to Saigon city
Saigon, a dynamic city marked by many historical upheavals.
From the 1954 to 1975, Saigon was the capital of South Vietnam. Since July, 1976, Saigon was renamed Ho Chi Minh city. I have completed many different ships such as Princess Cruises, Holland America Line, Cunard Line, Celebrity Cruises, Norwegian Cruise Lines and Royal Caribbean... that dock at Phu My port. I also pick up at Hiep Phuoc port as well if your ship docks here.
