5.00Excellent tour. Justin was brilliant. Informative, friendly and helpful. Everything was taken care of and there was nothing to worry about, a safe pair of hands. The tunnels were interesting and the second part of the tour gave you a glimpse into a different part of Vietnam.

5.00Great experience. Our tour guide James was really good. He had a lot of knowledge about the wars. He created a good atmosphere around an otherwise tragical history.
Great Tour !

5.00This trip was amazing. Our Guide Tuan made sure we got to know everything there is to know about the Tunnels and the War. He is a Veteran who himself survived during the American attacks and we really enjoyed the hands on experience we had. Even the "touristy" option felt totally cool and not too crowded. We got a bottle of water aswell and the Bus had good airconditioning. Nothing to complain about at all. Tuan is a great guy
