When we got there it was great but very busy - So we got a message at midnight the night before to say our pick up was at 8.05am from a hotel we were not staying at- despite booking a pick up from our hotel. So we walked to the new pick up location and were there for 45 mins before we were collected. At the first stop on the way we visited the disabled art centre - which was amazing to see!! We were then transferred to a different tour group to go onto our next stop the Ci Chi tunnels. This experience was good, you get to see the tunnels and how they operated. It does get very busy though, which is to be expected, but with small paths and areas to listen to your guides, sometimes there were just too many people and noise to take everything in. With regards to the pick up - It later transpired that we were transferred to a different group as our company didn’t fill the spaces to take us. But we were not informed. But you know what, despite the mess over pick up and changing tours - we ended up with Theo from Sun tourist - and she was amazing- she was hugely knowledgable, informative, helpful and so friendly with a great sense of humour!! Can not recommend her highly enough. My advice is to make contact with your booking operator in advance and make sure you know where you are being picked up and dropped off so you have no surprises at 7am and have to rush to where you need to get to - hotel pick up does not always mean your collected and dropped off at your own hotel.

Really good experience. - The tour was really enjoyable and informative, definitely worth the money. I have not given 5* because it ran over by nearly 2 hours. Normally this would not be an issue but I had a flight to catch so it was very stressful situation for me. I cannot fault the guide or the experience though. I would recommend.

Great tour guide. Lots of enthusiasm. - Great tour guide. Lots of good information. Too pushy trying to get us to rate her a 5. Maybe pressure from corporate to blame?
