Great experience visiting Chu Chi Tunnels - During my first time visit to Vietnam and Ho Chi Minh City I booked a solo trip to see the historical Cu Chi Tunnels. It was a great experience being guided by my professional guide, Kate. I learnt many facts about the Vietnam war. The hardships and the ingenuity of the fighters were amazing! We also had interesting conversation about Vietnam in general, its people, religion and how it has developed since the war ended in 1975. The tour also included a visit to a handicraft center where people suffering from disabilities caused by the chemical warfare during the war are showing off impressive skills creating the most beautiful products. The trip facilities - the car, the driver etc also contributed to a great experience! I can warmly recommend VN Bike Tours when visiting Ho Chi Minh!

Cu Chi Tunnels - I really enjoyed the trip to the cu chi tunnels. The guide Linda was brilliant and very accommodating for everyone. It was great to learn about the "American war" and to visit a local disability art centre - they are amazing crafts people! Highly recommended!

Great Cu Chi Tunnels Tour with Kate! - I had an excellent private tour of the Cu Chi Tunnels, and it was everything I had hoped for. This experience had been on my bucket list for a long time, and it did not disappoint. The history and ingenuity behind the tunnels were fascinating, and seeing them firsthand was incredible. Our guide, Kate, was outstanding—friendly, knowledgeable, and engaging. She provided insightful information throughout the tour, making the experience even more enjoyable. Her enthusiasm and expertise added so much value to the day. I highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in history and culture. A must-do experience, especially with a great guide like Kate!

Eye Opening Tour! - Our hotel concierge booked a last minute private Cu Chi Tunnels Tour with VN Bike Tour and we couldn't have been more pleased. We were picked up in a comfortable and clean car with a safe driver who's been with the company for many years. Our guide was a young lady named Kate who was very pleasant, fun and knowledgeable. On our way we stopped by at the Handicapped Handicrafts where handicapped artisans create beautiful art which are sold in the gift shop. The sales help support these artisans who many are second and third generation Vietnamese affected by agent orange exposure. After that we headed to the tunnels with Kate giving us insight into the history of the country, the tunnels and the perseverance of the soldiers. The location is well organized with props to show how the soldiers lived and sustained themselves in that environment. You can experience the tunnels which were a little claustrophobic. It was an eye opening experience and a tour we won't forget. Thank you Kate! Highly recommended!

Memorable experience - Our visit to the Cu Chi Tunnels was absolutely unforgettable, thanks to our incredible guide, Huong. From the moment we met her, it was clear she was not only knowledgeable but also passionate about sharing the fascinating history of this site. Huong brought the stories of the tunnels to life with her engaging storytelling, offering both historical context and personal insights that added so much depth to the experience. Her ability to balance the somber history of the site with moments of humor and warmth was truly remarkable. Huong’s enthusiasm and professionalism made this tour stand out as one of the highlights of our trip to Vietnam. Her dedication to sharing the story of the Cu Chi Tunnels left a lasting impression on all of us. If you’re planning a visit, I highly recommend requesting Huong as your guide—you won’t be disappointed! Thank you, Huong, for making this experience so memorable.

Excellent tour guide - We had limited time in Ho Chi Minh City so decided to book a private tour with Jacky Hieu which was fantastic. He is incredibly knowledgeable and great fun. He went out of his way to help us find things that we wanted to do. We would highly recommend him and his lovely driver.
