I just got back from a solo trip to the Chu Chi Tunnels in Vietnam, and wow, what a cool experience! The whole thing was super well organized and gave me a real feel for Vietnam’s history. My tour guide, Jack, was awesome, super knowledgeable, chill, and made sure I got the most out of the day. He was always ready to chat, share fun facts, and help me navigate the tunnels without feeling overwhelmed.

Had a wonderful afternoon with Ms. Sunny from Vietnam Adventure Tour, booked via the Viator app. Choosing a non-touristy small group was a great decision — minimal queue for the Cu Chi Tunnels and even for the ladies' washroom! Ms. Sunny was engaging, always smiling, and spoke excellent English. She, along with the very capable driver, made the experience smooth and enjoyable. Despite being briefly stopped by the police (for the usual “coffee money”), the driver kept everything efficient and got us back to Ho Chi Minh City on time for dinner — which I really appreciated! The afternoon tour was an excellent choice — the weather was cooler and more comfortable. I even had the unique experience of firing an AK-47 — half a magazine cost 1.3 million VND, and it was totally worth it for the adrenaline rush. A well-organized and memorable tour. Highly recommended!
