It was so interesting and our guide was so nice and funny. He explained everything so good. And it was fun to learn and see everything. I can’t explain the feeling but how you could see everything and got the information made you feel something. Just crazy that people thought about everything and to know how they acted in the war.
Good Experience

The entire experience was pretty good. Our guide Dat was really good and was well informed. The shooting is something you should skip unless you want to fire a gun.
Fascinating dive into Vietnam's War History!

Thank you to our tour guide (known as Number 3) for guiding us through the Cu Chi Tunnels and sharing his knowledge and family stories with us. His insights brought history to life and gave us a much deeper understanding of the site and its significance. We truly appreciated your his patience, enthusiasm, and the way he made the experience both educational and engaging. It has been a highlight of our trip.

Boa was a great tour guide. Good attitude and gave a lot of great historical context on our way to the site. We were however told our pickup time would be 0800-0815, and at 0745 I got a call saying they were outside—which we were okay with because we weren’t doing anything and were ready—but do take note because they were early to pick up most groups in our tour asking them to come down early. We made a stop at the firing range, which honestly I would have skipped next time. You have to pay for bullets, but what they don’t advertise is that they’re all blanks, and they list the bullet price per 1 bullet-but then make you get a minimum of 15-20. We ended up spending around $57 USD per individual for a kind of cool moment, but again they were blanks so you couldn’t even see where you were shooting. The tunnels were amazing! Boa was great leading us through that and it was neat to see the different traps they would create as well-that part was awesome and well worth it. Afterwards we stopped at a restaurant on the way back to town which was super cute, we didn’t get any food but loved the time to sit and chat with the group. Overall a good experience-just skip the guns lol
