LizbethMcQ Posted November 12, 2019 #1 Share Posted November 12, 2019 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieO2019 Posted November 13, 2019 #2 Share Posted November 13, 2019 We will be on the same cruise and I had a slight panic when I read your post. I have also emailed our contact at Seabourn after reading that the floating market in the Mekong will be closed as I really wanted to see that. I’ll let you know what they say. Trip Advisor has a few threads with some positive comments from people saying that HCM is a good place to visit during Tet https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/ShowTopic-g293925-i8433-k13012003-Tet_2020-Ho_Chi_Minh_City.html hopefully someone else will be able to help.....

LizbethMcQ Posted November 19, 2019 Author #3 Share Posted November 19, 2019 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" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
