Enjoy the FIRST AND ONLY Saigon Lotto Tour, where you will have a ton of fun with our lotto show and gun shooting competition. Your night will be completed with local food, and beers, to fulfill the experience you can only find in Ho Chi Minh City.
Lotto shows originated in Southern Vietnam during the mid-20th century as a form of street entertainment. Nowadays, it has become a popular, fun, lively entertainment event featuring drag performances, comedy skits, and audience participation. Performers dress in glamorous costumes, sing, dance, and tell jokes. These shows also include a lottery game where the audience can win small prizes.

*BEFORE YOU DECIDED TO BOOK:
The Saigon Lotto Tour is perhaps the most authentic and uniquely Vietnamese production. However, there are some notes you should keep in mind before booking the tour:
The Lotto Show is mostly in Vietnamese (sometimes the drag queens will have jokes in English if there are foreigners joining). Therefore, you may miss the jokes they are making. However, the experience of playing the lotto games and music/ dance performances will bring you joy in exchange
Lotto Shows in Vietnam has been with LGBT+ performers for a hundred years. As this is the main part of the tour, we kindly ask that all guests join us with an open mind and respect for all participants.
Itinerary
At 5:30 PM, our tour guide will come to your hotel (Districts 1, 3, 4, and 10 only – for hotels outside these areas, please come to our meeting point).
Our tour guide will call for a taxi to take us to our walking point (please pay for the taxi ~ 80,000 – 120,000 VND/ way). If you travel in a group of 6 or more, we will arrange a private car (free of charge).
Our first stop will be the local Sport Gun Shooting Range, located in a park away from the touristy area. Here we will have some snacks and beer (soda for children) before doing some shootings.
You will have 10-20 bullets for each person. For safety, please strictly follow the shooting range instructions.
Next, we will walk along the local street and visit a local restaurant for dinner (the food will be flexible depending on which day it is). However, we will make sure:
It is a 100% authentic Vietnamese dinner
It meets all of the requirements of safety
It is super delicious
It fits with your food allergies/ vegan,… (if you have)
After the meal, we will keep walking (about 1 kilometer) until we reach the location of the Lotto Show. On the way, we will get some take-away Vietnamese snacks for you to enjoy during the show.
When we arrive at the Lotto Show, our tour guide will get you some good seats so that you can play and enjoy it well. Meanwhile, you will be explained How to play the Lotto Show.
Each of you will receive tickets for 5 rounds (which will take 1 – 1.5 hours). If you are lucky, you can win some prizes during the shows.
Between each round, there will be musical and dance performances to boost the fun to the sky! Now enjoy your food, beer, and lotto show!
After 5 rounds, we will say goodbye to the Lotto Show, and return to your hotel at around 9 – 10 PM.
