HCM City’s Travel Firms Restart Tourism Services

In 2025, travel firms in Ho Chi Minh City have fully resumed their tour services, reflecting the continuing recovery of tourism after the challenges posed by the pandemic. Various tour operators have now established a range of exciting experiences for travelers eager to explore the beautiful attractions of southern Vietnam.

Building on previous successful initiatives, Saigontourist Travel Service Company remains a major player in the tourism sector. They have introduced new package tours to eco-friendly destinations like Can Gio and Cu Chi, which cater to both locals and international visitors. These tours are designed with safety protocols in mind, ensuring a secure experience for all participants. The cost of tours to Can Gio currently starts at approximately VND1.6 million per person, while the Cu Chi tours are available for around VND680,000 per person. These tours operate primarily on weekends.

As of 2025, Vietravel has also rejuvenated its offerings, featuring tours that adhere to enhanced safety guidelines, with a maximum capacity for transportation and tourism services capped at 50% to ensure visitor comfort. A representative from Vietravel noted that this incremental approach not only aids in the revival of the local economy but also helps gauge the interests and preferences of travelers. This insight will facilitate the development of more tailored tourism products in the future.

Travel firms are actively encouraged to collaborate with relevant governmental and tourism agencies to implement the “travel bubble” concept, thus designing tours that emphasize eco-tourism and responsible travel practices in green zones. These efforts aim to create sustainable and enjoyable experiences for future visitors while fostering a robust recovery in the tourism industry.
