Sach was an amazing tour guide, he gave us an in depth knowledge of Vietnam history from early on. We would be more than happy to do another tour with Sach, he was very helpful in every aspect of our tour today.

Hawey was an awesome guide and took excellent care of us! The driver was great too and got us to and from safely. Monkeys were so fun to see and definitely a must do!! I highly recommend wearing a backpack to keep your belongings because the monkeys can def take your stuff when you least expect it! Overall wonderful experience!!
Hawey has given us a great experience; I highly recommend it.
Went to see the monkeys, our tour guide was Sach, he was fantastic! Very engaging and had thorough knowledge of the Vietnam and it's history. Lovely food for lunch, couldn't of asked for a better experience.
Just a 2 hour drive from Saigon sits a undisturbed hidden gem. A beautiful mangrove forest filled with 3 different monkey species, crocodiles. Our tour guide was Tinh. He was very knowledgeable about the area and has great energy. He has experience with the tour and knows how to joke with his customers. He showed the differences of each monkey and the historical significance of the forest. Very affordable, with super fresh seafood market and Vietnamese home style feast included after the tour. Would highly recommend as it isn't as sort out like the usual ones in Saigon. The whole tour is about 8 hours long, but well worth the time. Best for small parties or families, as it is a nice and peaceful escape away from civilisation
Tinh was super friendly as a tour guide! He was detailed in explanation and we had so much fun with the monkeys!
The day was so fun! Tinh was a wonderful tour guide, he was fun and interesting the whole time. Would recommend!
Our tour guide JACK went over and above in not only showing us thru Monkey Island but provided us with well detailed info on the Vietnam war and the effects it had on the country and it's courageous people. Highlights for me were of course the history lesson, sharing the walk with monkeys and definitely witnessing the crocodiles up front. The Lunch provided topped it off. I highly recommend this tour for sure. Thanks Jack 😁
It was fantastic I throughly enjoyed it and learnt plenty
