Unforgettable day complete to our wishes with Lee! - Great private tour done with Lee EN driver who took us safely everywhere. In DE morning we went to DE tunnels. DE Lee tells us all about DE war history, not only from the books but also from his father. We arrived before DE big crowds EN the visit was very impressive. The two DE part of the day was slightly adjusted at our request; for example EN Vietnamese EN Buddhist temple (where monks also live) was added and ride with horse and cart changed to tuk tuk. We skipped DE honey where many tours stop. Lee had arranged a private boat that took us to several stops in DE Mekong. All in all had a really great day. A private tour is DAN a bit more expensive but we really liked it. We booked Lee through tours with locals.

A must if you are visiting Vietnam - A great day out. Penny was a fantastic guide, very knowledgeable about the tunnels and the history of the Vietnamese war. We learnt so much from her. It is a long day so be prepared for that. We also want to say how great the driver was.

A great 5* day - Penny is an absolutely fantastic tour guide. She is extremely knowledgeable and completely made the trip for us. Her English is exceptional. Apart from seeing the the Cu Chi Tunnels, which was quite an eye opening experience, we had a lovely trip along the Mekong Delta, stopping for lunch and going to a couple of small islands which was really interesting. All in all a great day.

Fantastic experience with a knowledgeble and caring guide - I had the pleasure of having Miss Linh as my tour guide, and I couldn't be more grateful for the experience. From the start, she was incredibly thoughtful and even gave my son a lovely gift, which was a very kind gesture. Throughout the tour, she took excellent care of my son, ensuring we were all comfortable and well taken care of. She showed us some truly amazing places and made the entire experience unforgettable. The Muslim-friendly package was fantastic – she took us to places where we could pray and ensured that all the food was halal. This attention to detail really made the trip special and stress-free for us. Even though my English isn’t perfect, she was so patient and understanding, making sure I felt comfortable and fully enjoyed the tour. Her professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail made this trip extra special. I highly recommend Miss Linh to anyone visiting Chi Chi Tunnel and Mekong River, especially for those looking for a Muslim-friendly experience. Thank you again for such a wonderful experience!

Amazing and super positive tour - We had an amazing tour with Lee. Everything was great - we arrived quite early and avoided the crowds (which we saw when we were leaving tunnels site). He told us so many interesting facts about the war and the history of Vietnam, showed us wonderful sights and also was very positive and good-mooded, which definitely contributed to us being even happier on that day! We visited sights in his home town on Mekong Delta, he knew many people around and he was also tipping them, which also made us feel that he cares a lot about that region. This, and the fascinating tour with wonderful experiences made us very happy on that day! He is the best tour guide we had, we enjoyed it with our whole heart!
