Artisans hidden within a cabin control the puppets using a sophisticated system of poles and ropes, arranged outside or beneath the water’s surface. They perform each pole, rope,… puppets with the system of ropes arranged outside or under the water. The stage is adorned with flags, fans, and parasols enhancing the overall visual appeal.

A Must See Show

We went to see this show as a family. Highly recommend going to see this, it’s something special and the way it is constructed is amazing. The live musical makes it even more spectacular. We went to see the 9:15pm show we turned up at 5pm to get tickets. We queued for 30 minutes and luckily we got the last set of tickets. I would say if you are visiting then go early get tickets for the same day of another day. They have 4 shows I believe.

A magical performance at the water puppet show - both my father in law and my young son were enthralled by the music and movement. It was captivating!!! Afterwards the set menu for dinner was a perfect mix of a wide variety of cultural dishes but delicious and tailored for western tastes.
Very unique and well worth a visit

We were unable to get booked in to dinner but decided to see the show. Although it was all in Vietnamese (which we were aware of) it was very easy to understand the story. It was very funny at times and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The theatre is a little tired but it really didn't matter (lady in front fell through her seat.....so glad it wasn't me). This is very unique and definitely worth a visit.
Puppet show, yes, tour-bus restaurant, no

The tour guide and driver did a great job of picking us up and getting us to the front door of the theater in a driving rain storm. The show was interesting. After the show, we were driven across town to a tourist restaurant. (The same one another tour company brought us to the day before.). The restaurant was ‘ok’ but it had a fixed menu for everyone and this was my second time there in two days. You could only choose drinks—at your own expense. We booked a private tour. This restaurant was packed with multiple tour buses. The room was so loud that no one could be heard over the noise—like leaf blower loud. If I had wanted a bus tour, that’s what I would have booked. For this reason, I would not recommend this particular tour. Too bad, because the guide and driver were very nice.
Perfect for children

I watched the show with the kids. They seem to love the puppets dancing in the water! The language of course is in Vietnamese, kids and the family just tried to figure out what is it about. The kids started to feel a bit sleepy though when the story started to slow down and the music sounds like a lullaby for them. hahaha The venue is nice, clean and cool. And, just a little FYI for tourists who are so used to swiping everything (like me!), the ticket office doesn't accept credit cards or USD. better prepare you VND ;)

Very enjoyable and interesting night out. Originally dinner was supposed to be on a small riverboat, but the boat needed repairing so they had dinner at a different restaurant after the show.

The pickup service was timely and we were provided with great seats. Dinner was especially nice and there was plenty to eat and we were allowed to eat at our own pace. Would definitely recommend this tour for anyone in Ho Chi Minh City.
