My partner and I booked a half day tour for Cu Chi Tunnels and were looking forward to it as it holds a significant place in the history of Vietnam. Our day started with an on-time pick up from Quan 1 and then with several other pick ups from around. Once everyone was onboard, our super friendly, highly informative and welcoming host Tu first briefed us about the itinerary and then gave an elaborated insight of Cu Chi Tunnels, the war, the aftermath of the war etc. While he explained us the whole scenario he ensured that it was narrated in a tasteful manner. Tu is an extremely warm person, eager to answer all your questions and didn't rush into the process of explaining anything or showing around the place. He ensured we all were safe at all times, were well behaved amongst each other and had a good time as a group. I would highly recommend everyone to book a tour with them and if you are lucky, you would have To as your host!

We had one of the most memorable nights during our time in Vietnam with Lisa and Robert on the tour. They did an awesome job in introducing us to the street food scene in Saigon but what we enjoyed the most was their amazing company and their willingness to share their stories with us. You will have one of the best nights in your life if you go on a tour with Lisa and Robert! Will highly recommend, not only for the introduction to Saigon’s food scene but also to get under the skin of the people and the culture of Vietnam.

Chau, our tour guide was absolutely fantastic and very informative. quite a lot of the trip was spent traveling to the attractions but that was expected. If you wanted more time at each attraction then it may be worth booking the Cu Chi and Mekong delta on separate days but if you have little time in HCMC then it's worth doing.

Amazing experience with a professional guide girl with a perfect sense of humor. Unfortunately I cannot recall her name, we were on the tour on 12.3. I fully recommend this tour. The only small problem was the waiting time at the shooting range because it was a little loudly for those who did not want to shoot.

It was a great chance to learn about vietnam side during the war.
