We took an unforgettable tour with our guide Hoa! He is a fully informed guide who was able to give us a lot of important information from the past as well as up-to-date information about all places. The day flew by and was very entertaining. We recommend it 100%! Hoa is the best guide we had in Vietnam.
Very easy and straightforward booking experience. Clear instructions provided. Was able to suit your around our preferences and very efficient pre departure communication. Punctual and we immediately connected with Hoa. Lots of information, very good English, knowledgeable and very safe driver. Discussed all topics of interest to us. Thank you for the day. Happy to recommend
Mr Trung and Mr Minh's tour was very interesting, we also just felt comfortable in the company throughout the day. Mr Trung was able to tell us a lot about everyday life in Vietnam and the aftermath of the war, and Mr Minh provided us with a lot of information about the DMZ in a short time. Thank you so much!
Hien and Tam were great tour guides. Hien drove us very safely to all the various locations and Tam gave us lots of personal insight into the various locations and their history. It was really informative to hear from someone who experienced the war first hand, and he was willing to answer any question we had. Highly recommended!
10 out of10 was excellent tien was an excellent driver and we had an excellent trip. Hai was a great guide very funny and we enjoyed our experience extremely well.
I love my history, I read and watched a lot about the American/Vietnam war before coming here (from the UK). I enjoyed the tour with Hua, it was a long day and on reflection I probably would have been better doing the half day tour. Khe Sanh was such a key part of the war but there really isn't a great deal to see there now, the C130 was cool but I'd seen the other exhibits at other museums. The tour guide Hua(?) was very knowledgeable. To improve I would have liked the tour to be a little more interactive; asking the people questions, asking us if we have questions, having us introduce ourselves at the start of the tour. The lunch was a let down, for a 'delux' tour my expectations were higher (speaking as someone having recently had amazing food in the middle of the jungle for 3 days on an Oxalis tour). Overall, a good tour with some room for improvements)
Thank You for Your Feedback! Thank you so much for your kind review. We truly appreciate your support and are happy you had a good experience. Your feedback helps us improve, and we’ll keep working hard to earn a full 5-star rating next time! Hope to see you again soon!
We had an amazing day trip visiting the vinh moc tunnels. Our guide Tam gave us great insight into the history of the area and his experiences during his younger years. I also want to thank our driver Thinh who looked after us for the day. Very friendly, considerate and knowledgeable plus an excellent driver. This is the second time I have done this tour and would definitely recommend the Stop Go Cafe and their staff.
What a great experience to go driving from Hue to DMZ. The company booking went good and Mr, Trung drove me and my wife like a pro-driver trough the heavy traffic - thanks once again Mr, Trung. At the DMZ Mr. Minh introduced us very well to area and historic site, that every one that visit Vietnam should experience. After DMZ we visited the tunnels and again Mr. Minh was our guide, and did it very well again 👍 Thanks to Stop and Go - and Mr. Trung and Mr. Minh.
Thanks Hue what a great day we appreciate all your knowledge regarding the history of the war and villages lives on our trip today.
The driver of our vehicle, Mr Trung & Thach , was particularly polite, and answered our questions in an always interesting way. As for the French interpreter, she made the visit very informative about the experiences of the Vietnamese people during the war.
