5.00Phat is the nicest tour guide I've ever been with. He explained everything so well and was able to answer all of my questions. He even shared extra information/stories about the places we went to that not a lot of people know about. It's so easy to approach him and just enjoyable to be with as we learn about the history and culture of Vietnam. Thanks again Phat! :)

5.00Phat is a really nice and friendly tour guide and we get to know and learn a lot of histories from Vietnamese culture, origins and religion. He made sure to give us a new perspective of Ho Chi Minh. The food they prepared for us is also so good! 😊

5.00Take a cable car ride to Baden Mountain to see several temples halfway up and the golden Buddha statue with Guanyin on top. I enjoy the opulence and novelty of the temple. Visiting the Kaoden Noon Service is also an unfamiliar experience. The Kuchi Tunnel is also hands-on and you can learn about the Vietnam War! Trying to get into the narrow entrance of the tunnel, crouching down in the tunnel, shooting with a real carbine rifle, it's all very special and the day's tour will be over in no time!!
What a great day out.

5.00The whole trip was amazing, we would never be able to see all those thing if we went on our own. The tunnels were very special and the Black virgin mountain temple is truly spectacular. Out tour guide Vincent was really awsome, he is very knowledgeable, fun and great company. He navigated us through crowded places with ease :)
Overwhelming but totally worth it!
