Wonderful full day tour... - Wonderful full day tour of the Cu Chi tunnels and Mekong Delta. Great value! Lucy was an excellent guide! He picked us up on time at our hotel and tailored the day to our wishes. He stopped for coffee when we asked and we learned a lot of history of Vietnam. He answered our many questions and was easy to talk to the whole day. Luc was personable and made our day memorable!

Recommend private tour, lots of learning, long day, great guide. - We had a great day visiting the must do Cu Chi tunnels, and Mekong Delta with Casey. Appreciated the early morning pick up so we beat the crowds. Casey was fantastic and enhancing our experience with all kinds of information and was lovely and funny to spend the day with. Car was clean and the AC worked great. It is a lot of car time but think it’s best to knock out both in one day. Being on a private tour allowed lots of engagement with Casey and flexibility to move at our own pace. The Mekong Delta portion does get a little touristy, but we learned a lot.

“Exceptional Tour of Chu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta – A Must-Do Experience!” - We had an incredible experience exploring the Chu Chi Tunnels and the Mekong Delta, thanks to our amazing tour guide Luna. Her knowledge of the history, culture, and local traditions was outstanding, and she shared fascinating stories that brought each location to life. At the Chu Chi Tunnels, Luna provided detailed explanations about the historical significance of the site, making the visit both educational and moving. We truly appreciated the way she made history so accessible and engaging. The Mekong Delta portion was equally unforgettable. From the serene boat ride to visiting the local villages, everything was well-organized, and we felt immersed in the beauty and culture of the region. Our guide ensured we were comfortable and even helped us try local delicacies, which added a special touch to the experience. Overall, the tour was seamless, enjoyable, and informative. Our guide’s enthusiasm and professionalism made the trip a highlight of our visit to Vietnam. Highly recommend!

Private Tour to Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta - This private tour to the Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta was amazing. Our guide, Sonia, was knowledgeable and made the history of the tunnels come alive. The Mekong Delta part was beautiful, with a peaceful boat ride and visits to local villages. Highly recommended for a rich and immersive experience in Vietnam. Ps: We were offered extra time and visits to more destinations for free. For example, the tour guide drove us to a newly development part on District 2 to have a closer look of the city from across the river. He spent the free extra 30’ to explain the history of Districts 1 and 2!!
