We absolutely loved our tour. Jack was friendly, insightful, and knowledgeable. The tunnels were incredibly interesting, and the restaurant they took us to at the end of the tour was delicious. Would 100% recommend!
We did the Small group AM tour. Tuan was amazing! He is a veteran of the war and was so interesting to listen to. He gave us all the knowledge we needed and we got to visit all the tunnels. Would definitely recommend!

Amazing trip and our Tour guide Vimh was brilliant, he made the trip even better! The stop offs on the way there and back were also fantastic. We had a brilliant day.
Good history of the wars from a local perspective and good tour guide, good to experience the tunnels
Mr. Fa was knowledgeable and funny and I had a great time with him! Would 100% recommend this tour for people, whether you have an understanding of the Vietnam War history or not. It’s a unique and harrowing experience. Just make sure to eat before hand as it’s pretty physical!
Wow what a fantastic tour experience with Tuan! Felt very privileged to have a tour guide who had been an Officer in the war and could give first hand experience of the war showing some great images along the way. Thanks Tuan you are an unsung legend we have enjoyed our day very much. From Rachel Rob Sarah & Bryan (son) 😃
