Great experience for the family - We had a fantastic trip with Tom, the boat ride to the cu chi tunnels was great and relaxing. Tom was a very friendly guide and gave us a lot of information about the tunnels, the war and Vietnam. Our kids also loved it and we really recommend this experience. The tunnel tour was the highlight of the trip
