1. Dinner cruise
Take a leisurely evening dinner cruise down the Saigon River, far away from the honking cars of the city. There will be a sumptuous feast, live jazz performances, fire dancing, and gorgeous night views to make the night comfortable and memorable. Check out Bonsai River Cruise, Les Rives, Indochina Junk, Ben Nghe, Saigon Pricess, Queen, King Yatch, to name a few of the most popular and best-rated options.
2. Walking around Ho Chi Minh City
Walking around Ho Chi Minh City is the best way to get around, especially at night. If you head over to the city center, around Nguyen Hue Boulevard, you will have easy access to other spectacular attractions such as the City Hall, Notre Dame Cathedral, Post Office and Opera House. All these buildings are so beautiful at night when the flood lights come on.
Wandering through the maze of alleyways is also fun. You will get to watch as people pack up their daily life and head inside to get a nice night’s sleep, while others come out, ready for their night shifts.

7. Motorbike drive
The freedom of driving a motorbike in Ho Chi Minh City (Sai Gon) is a favorite activity of the locals to drive their motorbikes around at night. Roads are a little less crowded, giving more freedom, which is much better than being stuck in traffic during the day. Plus the wind is much, much cooler. Many parks are open 24 hours too, so you can grab yourself some street snacks, sit at a park and enjoy it by yourself or with a friend. Or you can head over to the riverside where there are plenty of benches for you to sit on and enjoy the breeze. If you head away from the center to the neighboring districts, you will find roads all to yourself to explore.
8. Night street food
Street food vendors in Ho Chi Minh without doubt — they come out at night , if you take street food home with you, it doesn’t taste anywhere near as good. You will find so many individual and groups of stalls scattered around the city. Locals love sitting on the sidewalks and enjoying a hot bowl of soup or dish of rice after a hard day’s work. Check out Co Bac and Co Giang, two of the most popular street food alleyways. Most dishes here will cost you around a dollar.
9. karaoke
Karaoke is a favorite Asian pastime and Vietnam has taken it to a whole new level. In big cities like Ho Chi Minh City, karaoke bars are everywhere, and they bring the best relaxing moments for a night out with singing, drinking Vietnamese beers, eating snacks, and having a great time with friends. The fee is charged per hour and varies depending on the room, date, and the service hour.
10. Cheap beer & street food
Bui Vien and Pham Ngu Lao streets are legendary. This is the backpacker district of Ho Chi Minh City, and it never sleeps, although every morning it looks a little post-apocalyptic after all the crazy partying. Both sides of the street are lined up with bars packed tightly, each offering cheap beer, delicious finger food, loud music and fun, drunk tourist crowds. This street is equivalent to Khao San Road in Bangkok. Besides that, there are plenty of restaurants that offer late-night bites that are so hard to pass on when you are under the influence of all that 30-cent beer.
