Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta Private Tour

Great day very informative and how these guys managed in these tunnels was unbelievable. Fantastic Max the tour guide was so educational on the Vietnam war and Vietnam in general well worth the money apart from the shooting you can do at the tunnels cost as much for ten bullets than the whole tour but it’s up to you 👍

An excellent tour with a fabulous guide Max. We heard and learned so much about the tunnels and the history of this country. The trip to the Mekong deltas was a contrast to the tunnels & again enjoyable. Its a long day with 2 hrs travel between locations but well worth it. Thank you Max for a great day and sharing your knowledge.

A very fulfilling and interesting day. Our experience commenced with a punctual pick up from our hotel and a journey first to a lacquer ware studio where the works are produced by handicapped people who are victims of Agent Orange. The works are of very high standard and many in our group were tempted to purchase them. From there we headed to the Cu Chi Tunnels, where our excellent guide Max truly set the tone for the day. Knowledgeable, sympathetic and wonderfully friendly, Max brought Vietnam's history to life with depth and passion, sharing detailed facts about the extent, history and varied use of the tunnels across the war years. His warm personality fostered a great group dynamic from the very start. A highlight not to be underestimated was the opportunity to crawl through the tunnels yourself. It is a dense, claustrophobic experience that makes the hardship and human endurance of that era feel viscerally real in a way that words alone simply cannot convey. Lunch was served at a restaurant right at the Cu Chi site and was absolutely delicious, with all dietary requirements catered for. The relaxed setting over a shared meal sparked interesting conversations within the group — a natural and enjoyable extension of the morning's experience. All entry fees and expenses were included in the one fee, which made everything feel effortlessly well organised. Then came the long drive to the Mekong Delta — and what a reward it was. A boat crossing brought us to a typical organic farm where we were welcomed by genuinely lovely people and treated to a traditional dance performance that was both charming and memorable. The farm offered a fascinating glimpse into local production, with chocolate made entirely by hand in the most non-industrial way imaginable, a wonderful variety of coconut products, and the rather adventurous rice wine with snake — not for the faint-hearted, but certainly an experience. We then continued to see the manufacturing of coconut sweets of great variety and flavour before boarding small row boats for a peaceful journey along the river, surrounded by water coconut trees. The Mekong Delta boat trip was simply wonderful. Back across the Mekong to our bus, which transported us quickly and safely back to our accommodation. It was a long day — from 7.10 am to around 5.30 pm — but every hour was filled with something meaningful, beautiful or thought-provoking. A great and truly interesting experience, all round. Can just recommend it!

I’m very grateful to our guide, Tony, for making this experience so special. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a meaningful and well-organized journey. Thank you, Tony, for this wonderful trip.

We had an incredible day with Tony (Tue) as our tour guide! He took us to the Cu Chi Tunnels, where we learned so much about Vietnam’s history and even had the chance to explore parts of the tunnel system ourselves. Tony explained everything clearly, answered all our questions, and kept the experience engaging and meaningful. After that, we headed down to the Mekong Delta, which was such a beautiful and relaxing contrast to the morning. We enjoyed a peaceful rowing boat ride with local villagers, surrounded by lush greenery and calm waterways — it felt authentic and unforgettable. The food was absolutely delicious, and the whole day was filled with laughter, good conversation, and great memories with friends. Tony truly made the experience special. He was knowledgeable, friendly, organized, and made sure we were comfortable and having a great time from start to finish. Highly recommend him to anyone visiting Ho Chi Minh City!
