If you didn't get the e-mail from Seabourn, here is what I got this morning "Dear Guest, Thank you for booking your upcoming voyage and excursions with Seabourn. We have been notified by our local tour operator that Cai Be Floating Market will be closed due to the Tet Festival on January 25, 2020 for your Journey on the Mekong tour in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. We apologize for any disappointment and look forward to welcoming you on your journey with us. Best regards, Shore Excursion Department, Seabourn"

We will be aboard the Ovation, Jan 18-Feb 1, 2020 stopping in Vietnam Jan 25-30 as it turns out Tet Festival is Jan 25.  From what I have read, most everything shuts down for Tet and at least 3 days after.  I've contacted Seabourn about their tours but wanted to see if anyone on here has done tours during this celebration time in Vietnam?

@sail1658 While I am thankful for all the comments on my question, your very detailed description has been extremely helpful :-)

We will give one day a try and see where we go from there.  I'll report back once we have returned from our trip.

Looking for feedback from anyone who has experienced the Retreat on one of the Seabourn ships.  We are getting mixed information from the cruise line.  We have the option to purchase whole cruise access or individual day access.  Apparently there is a $50 spa certificate - I’m told one per cruise if you buy the whole cruise package, or one per day if you buy individual days.  My friend was told its one per day either way, but you can’t stack them they must be used each day.

Does anyone who has used the Retreat know?
