Ho Chi Minh Vespa Adventure Tours with Kids

Traveling with your family is fun but planning where to go and what to do is never an easy task. You want to explore Ho Chi Minh’s streets on a motorbike, but that might be too dangerous for your kids? Then this guide to Ho Chi Minh Vespa adventure tours with kids is for you.

Is it safe to join Ho Chi Minh Vespa adventure tours with kids?

The motorbike madness in Ho Chi Minh City may refrain you from taking your kids on a Vespa adventure. The drivers on the streets sometimes disregard of the law, and the constant traffic jam may cause scratches between vehicles and causes you small injuries.

For safety reasons, you should only let your kids sit at the back of a bike alone with the driver in front when their legs can reach the footpegs, and always tell your kids to wear helmets properly (the strap is fastened securely and the kid’s head fits the helmet). The kids should also grab the frames at the back seats of motorbikes or put their arms around the drivers before the journey starts. You can also sit at the back, putting your child between the driver and you, with a soft pillow or something in between to protect your children if the drivers need to stop suddenly.

Visiting famous landmarks and local markets with our local guide

You can choose to skip some places such as:

  • the War Remnants Museum if you find the collection here too disturbing and dark for your kids
  • Ben Thanh Market as it is quite crowded and your kids might get lost in the flows of people, and
  • coffee because there is a high amount of caffeine in Vietnamese coffee.

But that is not all Ho Chi Minh City can offer you and your kids. The water puppet shows with fun music and colorful puppets dancing on water might be a wonder to both adults and kids alike. The Saigon Zoo and Botanical Gardens with many green spaces and performances on weekends can be really amusing.
