5.00We had a wonderful time with (Captain) Bruno and have learned many more new things about the history of Vietnam and the war. We got to see the tunnel system, try foods the Guerilla fighters were eating and many more impressive things from back then. The pace of the trip was great for everyone and Bruno explained everything very well. Precise in detail and with very visible passion for his work. Would recommend him for sure! Small group tour has been our best choice!
The best tour guide in Vietnam!

5.00Emily was a fantastic tour guide and Tranh a great driver! Tranh was a real master driving through all the motored bikes and got us safely to the Cu Chi Tunnels. Emily explained to us the history behind the tunnels and it was quite interesting. We had bathroom breaks. Lunch was really delicious. Definitely request Emily as your tour guide and Tranh as your driver.
