Phu My Ho Chi Minh City Cruise Terminal Port Tour & Info (4K)

Take a look at the cruise port of Phu My, the gateway into Ho Chi Minh City, aka Saigon, Vietnam. We were there in March 2018 as part of our 14 Day Asia cruise aboard the Princess Cruises Majestic Princess (aka 盛世公主号) cruise ship. Also take a look at the process of docking by cruise ship at the port. The Phy My port terminal area is an industrial port as you can see in the video. We are American citizens, and a Vietnam Visa was required at a cost of $58 USD per person. We did not have to apply for the visa ourselves- the cruise line automatically does this and charges the cost to each guest's onboard account. Getting off the ship required the ship key card and a Landing Card that was also prepared by the cruise line. Once ashore, the buses for the ship ordered excursions into Saigon are parked the closest. If you are on a third party tour like we were, you have to walk a little further to board the bus. At the port a local Vietnamese merchants setup makeshift shops in case you wanted to purchase souvenir and goods. The drive from Phu My to Saigon was about 1.5 hours. Please feel free to comment or ask questions if you have any, and we'd be happy to answer!
