A must to visit when in Hoi Chi Minh - We booked a half day trip here through reviews from TripAdvisor.
Sunny our guide was great. As was our driver. We were picked up and dropped off at our hotel
Traffic was busy but we opted for the smaller mini bus at the non tourist area. There were 10 of us in total once all picked up.
The tunnel site was great. Our guide Sunny very knowledgeable. It's not for the faint hearted. The tunnels are small ( widened for us tourists but still narrow) I managed one my husband three but the young men in our group did everything.
We had lunch on our way back at an extra charge. It was great fast food. Still Vietnamese at a really reasonable price.

Tuan is good - This was a fantastic trip. We had a very sweet guide who had himself been in the war. This made the experience much more exciting. He showed pictures and told about his experiences. His name's Tuan. Now I know a lot more about the Vietnam War. I would recommend this trip to others!!!!

Great Tour - Cu Chi Tunnels - We did the VIP tour with Sunny and had an amazing experience. Sunny speaks really good English, knows everything about her country's history, and is super friendly and funny. The tour was definitely better because we had Sunny as our guide. At the end, we had lunch at a Vietnamese restaurant with delicious food, and the place was really cool too. We highly recommend the tour—10/10!
