1.00All though the guide was in a good mood, it could not cover the fact that we ran with full speed through the guided tour of Cu Chi. It took us 1,5 hours by boat to get there and we spend less time seing the place. Someone from the group, has visited Cu Chi before, and therefore could tell us everything we missed on the tour. We paid for a full day tour (8.30-15.30) but we arrived back in HCMC at 13.30. The tour should only be described as a half day tour, and the price should be cut in half! The total experience is that we were scammed. I know that Cu Chi could have been an amazing experience, however - choose another tour than this!
Great way to see Cu Chi!

5.00Had an amazing and relaxed trip to cu chi via speedboat after being picked up from hotel in an air conditioned van. About 90 mins on the boat up the river with amazing views where we arrive and kick off our tour. Our guide was friendly, enthusiastic and very passionate about the area and its history and did an amazing job as our guide. There is an opportunity to shoot real weapons whilst there also so take some cash of that is your thing! I think the option of the boat both ways over a bus both ways for a little extra is extremely well worth it! Have and will recommend to others - thanks again guys!
