The first half of the tour was perfect. I was picked up at my hotel and had a delightfully scenic trip around Ho Chi Minh City. Then to the Puppet show which was charming.
The big disappointment was the dinner cruise. Very touristy. I entered the ship and was seated at 7:40. It took forever to get service. By 9 pm I was given my check and no dessert. I asked for dessert and it was a small piece of pineapple and a thin, small piece of watermelon. The food was ok. Too much of it truthfully. Entertainment cheesy. The problem was the timing.
Basically we could have stayed docked for all I saw as we exited the ship at 9:15. The was no opportunity to see the skyline which is why I did the cruise instead of just go to a restaurant.
So, if it could have ended after the puppet show I would have been happier.
