5.00Alex, our tour guide, was brilliant. He was incredibly knowledgeable, funny, and witty, which made the whole experience even better. He turned the tour into a 10/10 for me. He’s a real credit to his company.

5.00The tunnels were a definite experience yo walk in and I liked that you could exit if you didn’t want to walk the entire length of the tunnel. The shooting range was fun if you like to do that sort of thing. It’s run by the military. Combining these into one your allowed us to do things that we could never have organized on our own. Phu (Phil) was a wonderful tour guide. He explained everything thing, was very knowledgeable, and funny. Kept a good energy during the tour. I highly recommend taking this tour with him.
Great trip

5.00Myself and my wife had the excellent experience of going on this trip today. From the moment our tour guide Theo collected us outside our hotel at 7.40am until we got back 6.45pm it was a totally wonderful day. I think the expertise,the knowledge, the professionalism, the sense of humour shown to us throughout the day by our guide Theo made it what it was. If I was to rate our tour out of 10 I would give it 11. I would totally 1000% recommend it to anyone coming to Ho Chi Min. That you so much Theo and also a mention to your driver. Both true professionals.
