5.00I recommend the private tour. We did the full day with both cu chi and Mekong delta. Harry our host was excellent. His knowledge of the two areas was extensive but he also shared a lot about Vietnam history and culture. He was very accommodating and offered options to shorten or add stops. He even shared tips and recommendations for outside of the tour and other areas we are traveling to. My only critique would be the food offering at Mekong restaurant. We found it to be mostly deep fried and bland in flavour. I still give a 5 star review because everything else was exceptional. Request Harry.
Best experience!

5.00This tour was absolutely fantastic — a solid 10 out of 10! The Cu Chi Tunnels are a must-see, and having a private tour made the experience even more personal and engaging. Our guide, Sunny, was truly exceptional. From the moment the tour began, Sunny brought an incredible energy, deep knowledge, and a great sense of humor. He explained the history of the tunnels in a way that was both informative and captivating, blending historical facts with local stories and personal insights. He answered every question with clarity and enthusiasm, and made sure we were comfortable throughout the trip. The entire experience was well-organized, smooth, and immersive. Whether you’re a history buff or just curious about Vietnam’s past, this tour will leave a lasting impression — especially with a guide like Sunny. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Ho Chi Minh City. Ask for Sunny — he’s the best!
Good morning Vietnam

5.00We want to thank Giang and Mr Sim for giving this tour of Cu Chi Tunnel, I have actually been here before on another Tour. But going with Mr Sim gave so much additional information and insight that I really enjoyed this more than when I went previously. Mr Sim is genuinely interested in the history and gave so much respect to former veterans. Mr Sim is very conscious of time and traffic so we arrived early before the crowds and got back with plenty of time and didn’t feel rushed throughout the day. Thanks again - I would like to visit again with Mr Sim soon
