Tour guide Nicole 🌟

A great half day at the Cu Chi tunnels. Really felt like you got more for your money with this trip. Nicole our guide was so informative, and honestly probably explained the American war clearer than in some of the museums. A must do in Ho Chi Minh!

The Amazing Tunnel of Vietnam

Amazing day again at the Tunnels - this was my third visit to explore the history of the tunnels - I'm travelling with my cousin who is travelling Vietnam for the first time - BUT this was my first time to this location - The day was superb led by our tour guide "Amy" - what a wonderful lady (soon to be a Mum) her summary of the history of the tunnels was first class and visiting the site where the disabled (some descendants from Agent Orange) make arts to sell was inspiring as always. Lunch later was delightful and our driver was very careful - Thank you for a great day Dave - Canberra Australia
