According to Mr. Nguyen Van Dung, right after the Covid-19 pandemic, tourism in Ho Chi Minh City introduced helicopter tours as a package to explore Ho Chi Minh City and nearby provinces. This was an initially attractive tourism package, but due to certain conditions and mechanisms, this product has not been fully exploited until now.
“The tourism industry continues to think about how to make helicopter sightseeing tours an activity, a tourism product of Ho Chi Minh City in the future. Whether helicopters are dedicated to tourism, where to visit, the flight area, landing points, and subsequent planning should be clear, and then provide advice to the city. The tourism industry needs to calculate the product that has been surveyed and tested, and I believe that this is a very interesting product for Ho Chi Minh City,” commented Deputy Chairman Nguyen Van Dung.
