5.00It was great to listen to the tour guide enthusiastic historical review on the political history of Vietnam. It started with the different types of colonialism to the Vietnam War and ended with independence. The site of the tunnels was well presented and again the tour guide was very informative.
Love a great tour ♡

5.00Our private tour with James was really great. He was punctual and we had a comfortable SUV for the 2 hour ride. He chatted with us the whole way there which made the trip fly by. He is very interesting and gave just right level of information. He loves history and it shows! His English is really good too. We stopped at the lacquer shop in the way which we weren’t as interested in, so we made it a quick stop. We went in the afternoon (11am departure) so it wasn’t too crowded at the tunnels. I think most large tours go in the morning. The Cu Chi tunnels tour was really interesting. I highly recommend this tour and request James if you can!
