Where will Quest dock in Saigon

[fritokc]

On the ports section of CC there is a discussion of where the Quest will dock. The poster says they will tender at Vung Tau. This is a couple hours drive from Ho Chi Minh City. (Saigon). Does anyone have the correct info on where the Quest will dock this season or does it depend on which cruise you are taking?

Thanks

On our SE Asia Quest cruise last year we docked in Saigon at an industrial port. Be careful, though, as it's a confusing port with more than one entrance. At one entrance tour drivers could do pick-ups outside the gate. To get in the gate the tour company had to get info. from you and pay to get a pass to get inside. Shore ex, of course, picked up ship side. A few people tried walking from port to town. Distance wise not awful but very difficult walking through port and then construction along road. Hope this helps.
