We had a fantastic private Cu Chi Tunnel tour with Tea from Saigon Adventure. She was professional, friendly, patient and very knowledgeable throughout the tour. Tea explained the history of the Vietnam War in a clear and engaging way, making it easy for our family to understand the significance of the Cu Chi Tunnels. She also gave detailed explanations of the different tunnel features, hidden entrances, underground living conditions and wartime strategies. She encouraged us to participate in the experience by helping us try the original narrow tunnel entrance and guiding us safely through the 100-metre tunnel section. Her explanations made the visit much more meaningful and enjoyable. We especially appreciated that Tea kept the tour interactive by asking interesting questions and sharing many fascinating facts along the way. She was always polite, cheerful and attentive to our family’s needs. The driver was also punctual, safe and courteous throughout the journey. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour and would highly recommend Tea and Saigon Adventure to anyone visiting the Cu Chi Tunnels. Thank you, Tea, for making our visit such a memorable experience!
We did the Chu Chi tunnels tour to Ben Dinh with Ryan as a tour guide. We are a family of 5 with 3 older teenage children. Tour ran like clockwork. Tour guide, Ryan, arrived early so we knew he was there while we gathered bags and finished breakfast. WhatsApp communication prior to tour with Saigon Adventures and Ryan himself were helpful, informative and clear. On the way to the tunnels Ryan was able to talk us through extensive history about Vietnam - his attention to detail was amazing. The drive went quickly because it was a fascinating discussion. On arrival at the tunnels Ryan swiftly organised everything for us behind the scenes and was equally knowledgable about the history of the area, tunnels and people. It was an excellent private tour and I would thoroughly recommend Ryan and Saigon Adventures.
It was excellent! A very enjoyable morning learning about a fascinating topic. Amazing experience to crawl through the narrow tunnels. The guide, Như Ý, was very knowledgeable. Taking the speedboat is definitely the way to do it, as you arrive before the crowds and have place to yourself.
Sang (Steven) was a fantastic tour guide. Full of information and took his time with us to explain everything very well. We highly recommend him. It was nice to go to the tunnels that were less busy. It was very quiet there! And the driver was excellent too as he had to cope with the very busy morning traffic.
Sang the tour guide was amazing full of knowledge and very friendly, fast the driver was great too. We had a lovely hasell free tour would recommend.
We had a great experience going to the tunnels. We just wanted to do the Tunnels without the gun experience and the other stops so we booked a private tour which was great. Our guide was very professional and knowledgeable. It was a powerful and humbling experience. I wold definitely recommend this.
We had a fantastic day on the tunnels tour. Very very enjoyable. I expected it to be very good and it exceeded my expectations. I would put it largely down to Sang. He is an amazing guide and a lovely person. Learning about this country's incredible history through his brilliant explanation was so good.
This was our second trip with the same tour operator and can honestly say it was amazing, so well organised. Steve out guide was warm, friendly, enthusiastic, knowledgeable and just a genuinely happy person. His knowledge was so thorough, he gave us so many insights into the war. We also went on a street food tour with Nana and Happi by bike which was fun and exhilarating and the food is as so good. Definitely recommend this operator
Wonderful experience. We left early and had a very peaceful visit. Luan (Ryan) was really good and well informed. Will highly recommend this trip.
We had an excellent experience visiting the Cu Chi Tunnels with Brandon as our guide. From the start, he was friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. Brandon explained the history of the tunnels in a way that was both engaging and easy to understand.
