Cu Chi Tunnels Ben Dinh: Exclusive Small Group War History Tour

Great trip with an excellent guide, James (Hung) The journey was long but very comfortable with a convenient stop at a craft workshop for people with disabilities. James gave us an interesting background talk during the journey. The tunnel area is well set up for tours and can be pretty busy but James led us to quieter spots and gave excellent explanations of everything. The crawl thru the tiny tunnels was pretty daunting but a worthwhile experience. We didn't try the shooting, seemed very inappropriate, but lots of visitors seemed very keen on this and posing with various military hardware......not sure they really felt the impact of what we were seeing in the same way. We found it pretty emotional overall especially having visited the museum yesterday.

A must do experience when in Ho Chi Minh. Fascinating to see the tunnels and to experience crawling through a small section, even though it has since been widened. Tour guide Loi was very informative and spoke fantastic English. His knowledge is fantastic and he was able to answer all the groups questions. Given that the tunnels are located a distance away from the city you have to travel 2 hours each way by van. However Loi made this enjoyable with some context about Vietnamese language and culture. It is worth noting that on the half day tour you only spend 2 hours at the tunnels but I felt this was enough. He was very friendly and easy to engage with. The tour was great. I'd definitely recommend it.

The Small-Group Cu Chi Tunnel Half-day Tour was a tour not to be missed, despite the lengthy drive from the central Saigon which was an hour and a half each way. We were picked up on time at our hotel, by our excellent tour guide Nam and his driver, in a very comfortable air conditioned minivan. We stopped for one further pick up and a comfort break along the way combined with a visit to a Lacquered art studio run to support disabled war veterans. We then went on to the Cu chi tunnels where Nam took us firstly to some exhibits and then out into the forested area where we were shown the hides and tunnels which we could enter. There were many exhibits along the way including various booby traps, mannequin displays and armoury. Nam was an excellent guide, explaining how well organized, and ruthless the Viet Cong were in their defense and how the tunnels were key to their victory. It clarified for us how impossible it was for the US Army to combat against them despite superior firepower. There was also an opportunity to purchase rounds of ammunition to try out various machine guns (AK47, RPD etc.) on a weapons range. We were then driven back to our hotels. A great informative tour and well worth the long drive. Many thanks

We all had an amazing experience. Vinh our tour guide was extremely insightful. We would definitely recommend this experience.

Viet is the most knowledgeable and helpful guide, his dialogue of the history of Vietnam and the American war was interesting and informative. I would definitely recommend this tour
