5.00Hung Le, our tour guide, was knowledgeable about the history of Vietnam and was enthusiastic about sharing this information with us. Hung Le was patient with us in learning more and taking precious photographs to remember these moments. Hung Le was also determined in assisting us in fulfilling a dream to experience some of things similar to that of our family for when they were here 56 years ago. Mr. Phillip, our driver, was very helpful, friendly and kept us safe in transport from one location to another. On the first day of the trip they graciously took us to a plethora of locations: A Bunker used by Viet Cong, the American Radar Station, Spanish Tombs, The USA Landing Zone, Lady Buddha, Marble Mountain, Ho Chi Minh Museum and Fifth Military Zone Museum. We enjoyed and appreciated their dedication and services so much we asked for a second trip. On this second day, Hung Le and Mr. Phillip helped in finding the specific place of where our father/ father-in-law’s military base was located. That meant the world to us and our family. ❤️ We sincerely recommend them for future trips in the country of Vietnam. They are amazing at what they do and are wonderful human beings. Much peace and love to you all and your families.
