Ho Chi Minh Flight Guide

Ho Chi Minh is the largest city in Vietnam and is home to 7.1 million people. It is situated north of the Mekong Delta on the west bank of the River Saigon. In fact, the city was called Saigon until 1945 and was the former capital of the Republic of Vietnam.

Just a stroll through the city is an amazing experience for every visitor. Enjoy the impressive architecture of both religious and secular buildings, as well as the magnificent temples and interesting museums. For an exciting day, jump into the hustle and bustle of Chinatown with its traditional shops and numerous restaurants. Visitors who would like to see a floating market should make their way to Cai Be which is definitely worth a visit. Ho Chi Minh is also surrounded by a fascinating landscape which is perfect for a nice day trip into the countryside.

The weather in Ho Chi Minh is warm throughout the year and is a great place to visit all year round. Temperatures rarely fall below 20°C and can rise up to 30+ in summer.
Vietman Airlines and Qantas offer direct flights from several Australian airports to Ho Chi Minh with an average journey time of 9 hours. If departing from an airport that has no direct services, passengers may travel around 13 hours.
