Fantastic tour! Our tour guide was excellent at communicating with us prior to pick up which made us feel at ease. Very small group so it felt like a private tour as we could ask lots of questions and take our time. Knowledge guide with great English skills.

Our guide 'Tom Cruise' was great, he is a 5-Star guide and very knowledgeable. He was entertaining and very polite. The tour itself was underwhelming. Lots of 'relax' breaks. I personally believe this is due to there being lots of people in zones we wanted to go to at the tunnels. On the way to the tunnel you stop somewhere for longer than needed. Our bus was suppose to return by 3pm. We didn't arrive back in Ho Chi Minh until 3:50pm which made us late for our afternoon plans. I'm a little unsure of the VIP aspect? Perhaps if we had luxury transport but the transport was a standard bus.
A ***** tour not to be missed

Our guide Hau was phenomenal and is a 5-Star guide. His communication, care for each of us on his tour, knowledge and informative dialogue provide the best tour of our two week stay in Vietnam. This tour is an excellent price and we would highly recommend to all visitors. Also the bus was very comfortable and provided rest stop on way to the tunnels and bottled water.

The Tunnels to Freedom

A great tour of the Viet Cong freedom fighter tunnel's used during their war against America's occupation of Vietnam. You can go down into a tunnel to experience the claustrophobic condition the freedom fighters lived in. There's a stop on the way to visit an artisan's workshop who produces and sells artifacts. The artisans were born with serious birth defects caused by America's use of Agent Orange, a highly toxic chemical defoliant. This tour is well worth it, and our guide Dominic made it even a better experience.
