4.00Might’ve been 5-stars had we upgraded to include the tour guide or had cell service (our bad) as our driver communicated on the WhatsApp and we weren’t sure exactly where to meet him after each stop. However, we still enjoyed the boat ride, Thien Mu Pagoda and Tu Duc Royal Tomb (serene & beautiful setting) even on a rainy day.
Excellent communication...
