This full day trip is a perfect choice for those who want a deeper insight into the 20th century history of Việt Nam. It’s a combined tour, half day city and half day Củ Chi tunnels, which has been suggested by many tourists. You not only gain more information about the Việt Nam War, but you can also witness what was once one of the biggest battlefields in the world, to understand more about a small country whose endurance through many wars during its 4000-year history has given us a peaceful day like today.

Dana Duyên's small group Cu Chi Tunnels tour was an absolute delight! From start to finish, her passion for sharing the history and culture of Vietnam shone through. The intimate group size allowed for personalized attention and a deeper connection to the experience. Dana's knowledge and enthusiasm made every moment engaging and unforgettable. I highly recommend her tour for anyone looking to explore the Cu Chi Tunnels with a knowledgeable guide who truly cares about their guests' experience.

The first half of the tour included a visit to attractions in the Saigon city followed by a shopping break at the Ben Thanh market. The War Museum is a very enlightening place to learn more about the US Vietnam war. We got to have pho for lunch (was okay) and then we left on a 1.5hr drive to the Cu-Chi tunnels. Duyen was a good and entertaining guide and provided lots of good info at the tunnels. The vehicle provided for the tour was also comfortable and air conditioned, which was a must for the hot weather we’re travelling in. Overall, definitely recommend this tour.

It was good, and Mr. Phat guided us so kindly. It needed sometime to get there, around 2 hours to go.

A great tour for such a short amount of time! We got to see all the highlights of Saigon like Independence Palace, Post Office, War Remnants Museum, and Cu Chi. A few downside were that the Notre Dam was closed for construction and that we had only less than an hour at the War Museum. Our tour guide Tom was very informative and friendly. I would definitely recommend if you plan to be in the city for only a few days but want to see all the top spots.

The Cu Chi tunnels were good. Worth visiting. Don’t go in the tunnels if you get claustrophobic! Wear lots of mosquito repellent. The tunnels are located in dense foliage (jungle).

We had a good day in general but we did the city tour in the morning. We stopped at the Norte Dame cathedral but as it’s being renovated it’s completely covered in scaffolding so would have been better for the tour operator to provide an alternative. We then went to Independence Palace. We spent around an hour here which we feel was too long. Essentially it’s a 1960’s interior with lots of furnished rooms and not much information. However the palace has quite a lot of historical significance relating to the Vietnam war. We then went to the War Museum where we were only given 30 minutes to look around three floors of history. We only managed one floor in this time. Even an hour wouldn’t have been long enough. We then went to a temple. We also stopped off at a factory where they make hand made paintings with crushed egg shells. Beautiful, but pricey. We then stopped for lunch. The restaurant was a bit disappointing, given all the incredible places to eat. The food was average. I’m not saying I wouldn’t recommend the city tour, our guide was pleasant and knowledgeable, but we feel he could have given more information. For example, at each place he just let us wander around but he could have shown us some of the more interesting artefacts and elaborated further. Which would have enriched the experience. It’s not bad value but note that all the stops are within a short distance of each other and are easily walkable. Although it’s apparently not customary to tip here, if you don’t tip people, they will ask you to tip them. We’ve spent a small fortune tipping since we’ve been here. So you need to tip the driver and the guide separately.
