Best tour and transfer company!!! - I highly recommend booking a tour and transfer service with this company. I messaged them through WhatsApp and they were quick and efficient in accommodating my needs. We had a private tour of the Vinh Moc tunnels with Ms. Thach who was extremely prepared in answering all our questions and her English was perfect. She was also extremely kind with me since I am a bit claustrophobic. Our driver, Mr. Luyen, was professional and very nice. We had a last minute change of plans and the company and driver helped us out by bringing us to our new destination which was an extra 2-hour drive. Highly recommend!!!

Fantastic day out would recommend - My family visiting from the UK and my 8 year old daughter and I who live in Singapore had a wonderful day with our driver Mr. Hao and our tour guide Ms. Thach on a full day tour of the DMZ and the vinh moc tunnels and would recommend this tour along with our driver and tour guide. Mr. Hao was an excellent driver making his was skillfully through the 3.5-4 hour journey from Da Nang where we were staying. Ms. Thach deep knowledge on the history leading up to the Vietnam war, war itself and post war was impressive. I learnt so much about led to the US involvement despite thinking I knew a lot I actually knew very little and is very interesting whilst being incredibly sad about the Vietnamese people endured. I was a little apprehensive about the tunnels being narrow and small, yet despite being over 6ft (I did have to crouch) but not any point did I or my 70 year old mum feel paniced or claustrophobic. Compared to other tunnel systems in Vietnam these were comfortable to navigate and Ms. Thach did an excellent job to ensure that we were only the ones in a certain part of the tunnel at any given point in time. During our visit to Vietnam we did many tourist activities and my 8 year old daughter said this was her favourite, even over sun world and all the rides. Per my earlier comment I would recommend this tour and request Mr. Hao and Ms. Thach.

Fantastic tour of DMZ and tunnels - The whole family, including 2 teenagers, really enjoyed this drive and tour of the DMZ and tunnels with Mr Tai (driver) and Mr Tam (guide). We learned a great deal about Vietnam's history from Mr Tam, along with many fascinating personal insights from his experiences of the American Vietnam war. He was so knowledgeable and friendly, it was a highlight of our trip to Vietnam. Mr Tai was an excellent driver and helpful too. Many thanks. We highly recommend this activity.

Fun and educational time at DMZ - We had a great time! We only had time for a half day tour, next time the Base. The trip was highly educational for both me and my nephews, who are 6 and 10 years old. Our driver, Mr. Tried, was excellent—both skilled behind the wheel and very knowledgeable about the area. Though he speaks little English, I was able to communicate with him in Vietnamese, which was helpful. He was incredibly patient, attentive, and kind. Our tour guide, Ms. Hair, spoke perfect English and was extremely knowledgeable, patient, and friendly. We had fun walking the bridge, museum, going through the Vinh Moc Tunnel, The boys and I learned so much and genuinely enjoyed our visit to the DMZ. I highly recommend this tour guide.

Great tour! We learned a lot - We booked a half-day tour spontaneously. The agency was super helpful and organized everything short notice. Because it was a half-day tour we had a private driver and private tour guide. Everything was really smooth. The driver Mr. Nam was helpful, friendly and explained the locations as we passed them. He drove not aggressively like some other drivers Our guide Mr. Tam was very knowledgeable. His English was great to understand. He grew up during the war and shared first hand experience.

Great Christmas Day visit to the DMZ! - Mrs. Teach did a fantastic job explaining the history of the decades long battle for independence in Vietnam. The tour was exceptional. Hue is also an excellent city for a multi-day visit.

Great recommendation for this tour. - Great trip with Ms Thach as a guide and Mr Hao as the driver. We had a long trip because they had adapted it so we could be picked up at Da Nang Airport. That was a great help. We saw the Khe Sanh War Museum and Vinh Moc tunnels. Both things were very interesting and thoughtful. Ms Thach’s knowledge is incredible, she knows everything about Vietnam’s history! Mr Hao was a good driver and often offered us to stop for food or drinks.

Smooth ride with interesting stops. - Not really a DMZ tour, but we had a transfer from PhongNha to Hue, and stopped at Vinh Moc tunnel museum, the DMZ (at Ben Hai river bridge) and a church. Tunnels and bridge were impressive. Our driver, mr Luyen was a very friendly young man and an excellent, calm driver. He gave us enough time for at our stops and was really one of the easiest drivers I had so far in Vietnam. We used google translate for our communication, which worked fine. Spacious and clean car. All in all I would highly recommend this service (and mr Luyen as your driver!).
