Overview

Private shopping tour in Saigon: Ben Thanh Market for souvenirs, Dong Khoi boutiques, Takashimaya mall, and tailoring services for ao dai, suit, or dress. A shopping assistant helps with translation, bargaining, and quality checks.

Introduction

Saigon is a shopping paradise — from bustling traditional markets to luxurious designer boutiques, from silk ao dai to handcrafted suits. But shopping in an unfamiliar city, without knowing the language, prices, or where to find genuine goods, can turn joy into a nightmare.

The Saigon Shopping & Tailoring Tour is the solution: a shopping assistant/guide accompanies you, helping with translation, price inquiries, bargaining, checking materials, sizes, stitching, and scheduling fittings for custom-made items. You just focus on choosing — everything else is taken care of.

Flexible Itinerary

Morning: Ben Thanh Market — buy coffee, tea, cashews, handicrafts, bags, silk scarves as gifts. Then stroll along Dong Khoi — the oldest shopping street in Saigon with local boutiques, local designers, silk and linen shops, resort wear.

Afternoon: Visit Saigon Centre/Takashimaya for upscale mall shopping, gourmet supermarket, cosmetics, international fashion. If you want custom tailoring — ao dai, suit, shirt, dress, linen outfit — the guide will take you to a reputable tailor, help you choose fabric, take measurements, and schedule fittings.
