Unforgettable - We had a great time on this tour. Our guide was Tuan and he made it unforgettable. He shared his personal experiences during the war which provided additional context and emotional weight, coming from someone who lived through this time. The booking process, pick up and drop-off were all easy and there was great communication with the tour company. Definitely recommended.

Excellent guide, highly recommend - Great tour and tour guide! Highly recommend! Tuan is an excellent guide, he is very knowledge, friendly and answered all of the many questions I had about the war. What made this tour special was Tuan's personal stories about the war as a veteran. His stories made this tour special for me. I learned a lot about how the VC fought and survived the Americans. Thank you, Tuan!

Fantastic guide for learning this part of history - Mr Tuan gave us a tour that we would never forgot, I have been to the Cu Chi Tunnel many times and never heard such detailed and realistic explaination about what really happened during the war. Mr. Tuan joined the war when he was 20 years old , he served his country till the war finished then another 8 years he was in the jail. He answers all our questions and our teens have had a good understanding for this part of history from his stories. I would like to thank him very much for gave us a really pleasant and acknowledgeable trip for the Cu Chi Tunnel. Hope we will have Mr. Tuan to our guide again when we visit next.

Amazing tour guide and lovely environment. - We had a lovely tour guide Tuan and he provided a great tour with excellent stories. He encouraged questions about his own experiences and was very informative. The area was rich in history and well set up as you walked through the jungle to each spot.

Cu Chi Tunnels Half Day Tour - We had the best tour all thanks to our tour guide Sunny! She was very insightful about all the tunnels and traps, the North/Viet Cong vs South Vietnam/Americans, and all the political nuances of the time. We also had the best tour group members who chatted with us the whole time so there was never a dull moment. Bus was comfy, people were great - We will be booking again when we come back with our family!

Very Good Experience - It was a very well organised tour, Tom(Cruise) our tour guide kept reminding us the schedule from the previous day and picked up us from our hotel on time. After boarding all the tourists, Tom explained what we are going to do in tour and covered the whole history of Vietnam. The van was very neat and clean and the driver was professional.Snacks in cu chi tunnels and Mekong islands was good. The ambience of the hotel where had the lunch was beautiful. If you have one day to have a tour of cu chi tunnels and Mekong delta , all you need is to book this tour and a good guide like Tom will take care of the rest of the work for you.
