Enjoyed the scenic boat trip to the site. Moon was a great host, so informative in a very respectful way. We beat the crowds by fast travel on boat, much better than bus trip (have done that previously). Important to learn about Vietnam War history and impact it had on peoples lives. Very nice lunch and relaxing boat ride home. Highly recommend this trip, and definitely go by boat 👌

Awesome tour! The speed boat made what would have otherwise been a boring road trip interesting. Our guide Khr was extremely knowledgeable of the war and life in the tunnels. It was a small group of 9 people and the speed boat was in great condition and provided life vests for everyone. DC Saigon Tours made booking and communication extremely easy.

Great tour on a speed boat to the tunnels, our guide Danny was fantastic and walked to our hotel to get us and take us to the dock. Great day, learning so much from Danny and his insights on what happened there, lunch was good and I even got to fire an AK47. Highly recommended!
