Ho Chi Minh City Ao Dai Try-On Photoshoot Experience

Explore Ho Chi Minh City in a traditional ao dai on a guided photo tour with included transportation and key landmark stops.

Getting started

Meet your guide at the designated starting point in Ho Chi Minh City and get introduced to the plan for your small-group or private guided tour in English, depending on the option you selected. Change into your chosen ao dai rental with access to multiple styles and sizes. Once everyone is ready, you will board the included transportation and set off toward the museum for your first photo session.

What to expect

Museum heritage architecture

This first stop centers on your ao dai look set against museum heritage architecture in Saigon. You begin your photo journey here before heading out to the city’s streets and landmarks.

Features

• A professional guide with photography skills helps you pose, frames each shot, and adjusts locations on-site so you can focus on the experience.
• Ao dai rental in multiple styles and sizes is included, so you can select a fit and color that suits you before your photos are taken.

Notre Dame Cathedral and Central Post Office

Next, your transportation takes you to two of Ho Chi Minh City’s most recognizable sites, Notre Dame Cathedral and the Central Post Office. These consecutive stops give you contrasting architectural backdrops for your ao dai photos.
