Going by boat was great fun, to enjoy the Saigon River/HCM skyline. Get to the tunnels before a lot of bus tourists. Back in HCM so have the afternoon free to do other things.

The tour was great! Our guide was professional and knowledgeable and the boat ride was so nice and peaceful. You’ll get there nice and early and beat the crowds (7am option).
An insensitive tour worth avoiding

As an American this tour is difficult and treated with a lack of sensitivity for our military. Anyone choosing to take this tour needs to know this and I did prior to booking. You’ll be shown the different traps which were set and view the mural which depicts military falling to their deaths or mutilation. The guide shouted “Good morning, Vietnam!” before spinning a trap door on the one active trap for tourists to photograph. The real attraction here is the shooting gallery at the end. Most people seemed to purchase ammunition and go to the firing range. Save your money and visit the War Remnants Museum in zone one (HCMC). It was the most compassionate view of the war from all sides and treats the material with sensitivity.
Excellent experience
