A great 5* day - Penny is an absolutely fantastic tour guide. She is extremely knowledgeable and completely made the trip for us. Her English is exceptional. Apart from seeing the the Cu Chi Tunnels, which was quite an eye opening experience, we had a lovely trip along the Mekong Delta, stopping for lunch and going to a couple of small islands which was really interesting. All in all a great day.

Fantastic experience with a knowledgeble and caring guide - I had the pleasure of having Miss Linh as my tour guide, and I couldn't be more grateful for the experience. From the start, she was incredibly thoughtful and even gave my son a lovely gift, which was a very kind gesture. Throughout the tour, she took excellent care of my son, ensuring we were all comfortable and well taken care of. She showed us some truly amazing places and made the entire experience unforgettable. The Muslim-friendly package was fantastic – she took us to places where we could pray and ensured that all the food was halal. This attention to detail really made the trip special and stress-free for us. Even though my English isn’t perfect, she was so patient and understanding, making sure I felt comfortable and fully enjoyed the tour. Her professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail made this trip extra special. I highly recommend Miss Linh to anyone visiting Chi Chi Tunnel and Mekong River, especially for those looking for a Muslim-friendly experience. Thank you again for such a wonderful experience!

Amazing and super positive tour - We had an amazing tour with Lee. Everything was great - we arrived quite early and avoided the crowds (which we saw when we were leaving tunnels site). He told us so many interesting facts about the war and the history of Vietnam, showed us wonderful sights and also was very positive and good-mooded, which definitely contributed to us being even happier on that day! We visited sights in his home town on Mekong Delta, he knew many people around and he was also tipping them, which also made us feel that he cares a lot about that region. This, and the fascinating tour with wonderful experiences made us very happy on that day! He is the best tour guide we had, we enjoyed it with our whole heart!

Great guide, excursions & fun. - We had an amazing time with Li, he is very knowledgeable, friendly and professional. We Ended up booking another 2 additional trips than planned due to how much we enjoyed the first. We did the Mekong Delta, City Sights, Cuchi tunnels and Monkey island. In this time I think we discovered most everything in south Vietnam. The lunches provided were in beautiful places, comprehensive in quality and quantity. Our driver was also brilliant, professional and courteous. Don’t hesitate book now!

Lee is an awesome tour guide! - Lee is a very dedicated, fun and humble tour guide. Our family started with the Cu Chi tunnels and Saigon tour. Lee provided us with comfortable and safe ground transportation. Along the way he educated us about the history and culture of the area. He is a walking encyclopedia and we learned so much from him. His light-hearted and good natured manner endeared him to our family quickly. At the end of the day, we were convinced to book another tour with Lee the next day to his hometown area of the Mekong River Delta. We were able to explore the river and many islands to learn about the region’s deep agricultural experience and work ethic. Both tours exceeded our expectations, as did Lee. We strongly recommend his tour services.

Fantastic and rich tour with an entertaining and knowledgeable local guide - Fantastic tour with our wonderfully entertaining and knowledgeable guide Lee. Lee really brought Vietnam’s history to life, often referencing his own family experiences and upbringing to give tremendous context to the tunnels and delta. Comfortable transport, great food and drink, and really interesting side trips to visit artisans, beekeepers, candy makers and a taste of local fruits accompanied by traditional music really helped make this a rich experience from start to finish. Highly recommended!!

Wonderful 2-day trip to the Chu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta - We went on a 2-day trip (on separate days) to the Chu Chi Tunnels and the Mekong Delta. It was wonderful 2 days and very educational as we learnt about historical facts, I was not aware of before. The first day was spent at the Chu Chi Tunnels and we had a private guide called Lee, who walked us through the tunnels. He was a very humorous guide and really kept the trip interesting and entertaining. Lee’s relative had fought in the war, so was able to provide valuable insights into the traps and history of the place. We got plenty of time to visit the site and managed to try out the activities (eg. Actually go under the Chu Chi Tunnels). The timing and pacing of the tour were excellent and we returned to Ho Chi Minh in good time to visit the War Museum. Lee was a fantastic guide and I would highly recommend him. Day 2 was spent at the Mekong Delta with the lovely guide Mia, who was just starting out her tour guide career. We visited various islands and at each destination, we ate different types of food, which was great and interesting to learn the making of such things as chocolate bars. We went on a boat ride and did some cycling through the villages. The lunch was fantastic as well just like all the food in the country. It was Mia’s first tour and I felt she did very well. She was very friendly and tried her best to answer all our questions. She made sure we were always safe and pleased to take pictures on our behalf. We really enjoyed our 2 days at the sites and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.
