The other destinations are Can Gio district, famous for the Vam Sat eco-tourism site and Rung Sac Military Base, and Cu Chi district, which is well known for its underground tunnels. These places tell visitors the history of the city.   
On this occasion, a series of discounts will be introduced to make visiting Ho Chi Minh city even more affordable, including boat and motorcycle rental as well as services like shopping, eating, transportation and dental tourism.
According to Vice Directo of Ho Chi Minh City Department of Tourism, Nguyen Thi Anh Hoa, these tours will be provided at the best prices but still ensure service quality. Especially, all participants will have a chance to visit local museums which will help them learn about the city’s history.
The number of visitors to Ho Chi Minh City in the ten months of 2018 was estimated at 6.1 million, a 20% increase from the same period last year, according to Nguyen Thi Anh Hoa.
