Itinerary

  • Bai Biển Vung Tau

    Vung Tau has four known beaches—Front Beach, Back Beach, Pineapple Beach, and Paradise Beach. Front Beach (Bãi Trước) is the most popular, which for many others is enough reason to stay away. In addition to the crowds, the water is rather polluted and doesn’t offer the best beach setup. However, you can still enjoy some fresh seafood at the many stalls and restaurants that have set up shop—they serve some of the most delicious seafood in the south of Vietnam. For a better beach experience, head to any of the other three. Back Beach (Bãi Sau) is much less dirty, and perfect for surfing. As the beach gets some wonderful wind swells, kitesurfing shops have appeared over the years, offering rentals and classes for all levels.

    1 hour

  • Jesus Christ Statue

    Statue of Christ the King is an unforgettable Vung Tau day tours. You can see the statue of Christ the King, one of the important symbols of Vung Tau, from all directions in the city. But the best is still climbing to the top of Little Mountain and admire the statue. Then, climb the observatory in the statue and watch the panorama of the city and the surrounding sea The statue of Christ the King was built in the early 1970 s but not until more than 20 years after its completion. The arms are 18 m wide, 32 m high, two meters higher than the Redemptories statue in Rio de Janeiro.

    1 hour

  • White Palace

    Bach Dinh, or the White Palace of Vung Tau City is located at 4 Tran Phu Street, on the slop of Big Mountain. Standing 50 meter above the sea level, White Palace has its French name which is La Villa Blanche. Tracing back to the year of 1898, it was considered as a summer holiday villa of French Governor General Paul Doumer. This palace was named after his lovely daughter. Unfortunately, while the structure was being built, Doumer had to come back to France and became the President of France later. It was not until 1916 that it was officially used for holiday resting of some Indochina-French Governors. Once visiting the White Palace, you will be attracted by its all white appearance, which is the reason why people here call it “Bach Dinh†(“Bach†means white color in Vietnamese).

    45 minutes

  • Thich Ca Phat Dai

    Thich Ca Phat Dai (Platform of Shakyamuni Buddha) is a notable Theravada Buddhist temple in the coastal city of Vung Tau in southern Vietnam. It lies to the northwest of the Lá»›n mountain and was built between 1961 and 1963 when it was opened. It is set on a plot of around five hectares, with a Zen Buddhist monastery at the foot of the plot and the Thích Ca Phật Äài at the top. The Zen monastery is a small brick temple built by a government official from Vung Tau in 1957. In 1961, the Buddhist association organised for a renovation of the monastery and decided to build the Thich Ca Phat Dai further up the mountain. Additional lodgings were built to cater to Buddhist pilgrims who come and visit the site.

    45 minutes

  • The Whale Temple Vung Tau

    Lying on the right of the Thang Tam’s Holy Temple, the Whale Tomb was built at the same time as the Temple of the Five Eliments at the end of the 19th century. The Tomb presently displays a huge skeleton of a whale collected by the local fishermen over a hundred years ago . In the story about the whale, it was rumoured that in the mid 19th century, there was a very big head of a whale drifting onto the Tam Duong Beach. The whale head was so big that local villagers had to fence it with bamboo sticks and waited several days for the whale flesh to become rotten enough to leave the bones. Then they carried the bones to the temple and people have worshipped until today. Over recent years, more whale bones have been collected and preserved at the temple.

    30 minutes

Wonderful tour…wonderful guide!

Published on Jan, 2025

Sang, our tour guide was the best! He took us to so many wonderful sights and being on a private tour in an air conditioned vehicle is a huge bonus! If you request Sang as your guide you definitely won’t regret it.

A must see

A greatest hits tour of the Vung Tau City Area.....

Published on Dec, 2024

My wife and I toured the Vung Tau City area with Maximus Travel Vietnam as part of our Celebrity Solstice cruise from Hong Kong to Singapore - Phu My Port was one of the stops. At this port you are required to take a bus from the ship out to the port entrance to meet up with tours you have privately scheduled (i.e. tours not booked thru the cruise line), which is only 400-500 yards away. Our guide Tippy and his driver met us at the port entrance exactly as stated, and at the time we had agreed upon. Disclosure for visitors: Be aware that my wife and I intentionally booked this tour because we had no interest in visiting Ho Chi Minh City or the area of the Cu Chi Tunnels. As nice as the Vung Tau City area is, it isn't what I would call a "must see travel destination" - it's pretty basic. Our tour guide Tippy did a great job of showing us everything of note there is to see in the Vung Tau area, but it simply can't compare to Bangkok, for example. OK.....now that I've set the stage...... We certainly visited a number of locations in the Vung Tau area: Christ the King Statue, the lighthouse, the White Palace, the Chon Khong Monastery, the beach area, and the Upside Down House. And, we had a very nice lunch. In summary, Tippy was a great guide and we had a fun day. I believe we saw "the greatest hits" of the Vung Tau City area. Our thanks to Maximus Travel Vietnam for setting up a thorough tour, and providing an excellent guide and driver for us.

Very good; exactly as advertised!

Published on Mar, 2024

This was a private tour for just the two of us. We had a very good English speaking guide and a separate driver in a nice new vehicle. Pickup was right on time and we were able to modify the tour to meet our interests. All went very smooth. We recommend visiting this specific area of Vietnam as it is totally different from the chaos you will find in Ho Chi Min City!

Best tour guide
