Cu chi tunnel review

5.00Our tour guide was amazing. Exceptional story telling abilities matched the setting that we were in for an authentic experience. The tour of a lifetime. The youngest in our group was my son who was 10 and my mum joined us also who is 70. Although she didn’t go down the tunnel it didn’t deter her experience. We weren’t rushed and the lunch was amazing.
Excellent Tour Guide

5.00An informative and fascinating day out. Great speedboat transfers which made things so much more fun than a bus or car. But the highlight was our guide Danny who was so knowledgeable and humorous. There was no question he couldn’t answer, and he was a delight to be with. Thank you so much
