The half day large group...

3.00The half day large group tour was ok. The fact you’re spending more time driving than at the tunnels is probably the main detractor (the tour operator is fully transparent about this so not an issue). We felt a bit rushed through every stop at the tunnels and there wasn’t a lot of information given behind the history of it. When it came to going into the actual tunnel this wasn’t explained very well and felt more like a “off you go” so some of us didn’t really know how far we’d be crawling for, or what tunnel we were even in. I’d recommend a full day tour of the area with a smaller group.
A special thanks to our...

5.00A special thanks to our tour guide Harry who has made this trip so memorable. Harry is from local but his command of English is so good, hence all the history he explained is so informative, educational and interesting. It’s value for money. I highly recommend this tour and I hope you will be lucky to get Harry as the tour guide!

1.00This was the worst tour I have ever been on. Complete tourist trap. The guide and driver were rude and made unplanned stops at a souvenir factory where veterans of war are exploited and added another stop at the end for lunch. The actual tour of the tunnels took 1.5 hours. We were gone 8 hours! The tour promised a “storytelling experience” - the guide’s stories were limited to “here’s a tunnel”. The history behind this site is fascinating but I wish I had booked a different tour. The entire group could not get off the bus fast enough.
