Three things the message is for
The written confirmation carries the exact map pin, how to reach the guide, and whether the shared departure is going ahead. The public meeting name is Starbucks Waterbus at Bach Dang Wharf, 10B Ton Duc Thang. The pin is the precise point for your date.
Enquire for landmarks on Saigon City Highlights and for the evening tastings on the Saigon Street Food Walking Tour. Day-of packing and pace are in what to expect, not in the confirmation itself.
What the message is not
It is not an automatic email from the form. It is not a ticket with a seat number. It is not permission to bring a large suitcase. It does not add hotel pickup to a shared walk.
If a language other than English was requested, the confirmation is also where that request is either accepted or not. If the reply does not mention the language, ask again before you travel.
When it usually arrives
Shared departures are normally confirmed about one day before, once four guests are reached. Same-day confirmation happens only when someone writes it explicitly. Read last-minute bookings if you are inside that window.
Keep the message until you have met the guide. Arrive about 10 minutes early.
If plans change
There is no monetary cancellation charge on a direct shared tip-based booking. For cancelling a direct shared booking, tell us as early as you can. Light rain normally means the walk continues. Heavy rain near departure is a case-by-case reply, not a rule you apply yourself.
This article cannot look up your date. Use the tour page or the contact already in your confirmation.
