Tour description

Join us on a journey through the quiet, eerie layers of the city—lanes where legends linger and history refuses to fade. You’ll walk behind the scenes of old Saigon, discovering real ghost stories whispered under dim streetlights, wartime secrets veiled in forgotten shrines, and sacred micro-sites where locals still honor unseen presences. 🕯️

This tour features:

  • A guided walk through shadowed alleys where footsteps once echoed in silence.


  • Stops at little-known shrines and altars, where offerings still burn for mysterious spirits.


  • Tales of war-time insiders and hidden bunkers, preserved only in hushed oral history.


  • Encounters with ghosts of the city—not theatrically staged, but drawn from real experiences of locals who’ve felt the unseen.


  • A peek into Saigon’s collective memory, honoring both its beauty and its darker depths.


🚫 No click-bait, no cheesy effects—just authentic stories, rooted in respect and curiosity.

👣 Walk with a local guide who grew up here, learned from elders, and can show you a Saigon few ever see.

✨ By tour’s end, you won’t just be a visitor—you’ll carry a piece of Saigon’s hidden soul.

🎒 Free walking tour – we work for your tips!
