5.00Had a brilliant day. Our tour guide Tuan was incredible, funny and engaging. He was a veteran with the South Vietnamese Army so a great experience with him as our guide. Picked up in bus, given water, given freezing wet towel for after tour and taken to a lunch spot, it was nice to have time to chat with our group. Great day especially for price!
Fun, informative

5.00Tuan was an amazing guide! What an honour it was to visit the tunnels with an actual veteran from the war... The minute he pulled out his dog tags I nearly s*** my pants, and feeling the shrapnel still stuck in his body was a chilling experience, if you do this tour, make sure you book Tuan as your guide !
Amazing tour led by a actual vietnam war veteran
