Itinerary

Your guide and driver will pick you up at your hotel and drive about 2 hours to Vũng Tàu. Enjoy scenic landscapes en route. On arrival, drive to visit

●   Thích Ca Phật Đài Pagoda: This is a hillside park of monumental Buddhist statuary built in the early 1960s. It is a must-see site for domestic tourists.

●   Lighthouse: The 360 degree view of the entire hammer-head-shape peninsula from the lighthouse is truly spectacular, especially at sunset.

●   Giant Jesus: This 32m-high giant Jesus statue was constructed in 1974. The statue can be reached on foot by a path that heads up the hill to enjoy gorgeous views of this beautiful beach city.

●   White Villa: The Villa Blanche is a former royal residence set on a lushly forested hillside overlooking the sea. It was built in 1909 as a retreat for French governor Paul Doumer. It later became a summer palace for Vietnamese royalty: King Thanh Thai, the reigning monarch of the Nguyen Dynasty at the time. From the late 1960s to the early 1970s, the building was a part-time playground for South Vietnam President Thieu.

Lunch is served at a local restaurant, followed by relaxing time on the Vung Tau beach, before we drive back to Saigon in the afternoon. Drop you at your hotel or somewhere in District 1 on request. End of services.

HAVE A GREAT TRIP!
