It was a fantastic thing to do I am glad we did it - Our morning started in the city with James, who was so friendly and knowledgeable. We visited the War Museum, which was absolutely fascinating, and then had some time to relax and enjoy lunch.
After lunch, Ethan picked us up and took us out to explore the Cu Chi Underground Tunnels — what an incredible experience! The history and stories behind the tunnels were truly eye-opening.
I highly recommend this Small-Group Saigon City & Cu Chi Tunnels Day Trip. Everything was well-organised, and both James and Ethan made the day unforgettable!

Absolutely incredible - James and Ethan made the Small-Group Saigon City & Cu Chi Tunnels Day Trip absolutely incredible! Their deep knowledge, engaging storytelling, and warm personalities made the whole experience so enjoyable and easy to follow. The tour was well-paced, full of fascinating history, and gave just the right mix of adventure and culture. I couldn’t have asked for better guides — I’ll definitely be booking with them again when I return!

First full day in Vietnam and a great start. - On our first full day in Vietnam visiting from the UK, this tour gave us a great opportunity to see the city and learn the history of Vietnam. Manh, our tour guide, was exceptional, giving us a fun but informative tour. We were very well looked after, despite a busy day we never felt rushed. The driver (sorry can't remember the name spelling) gets a mention too for getting us smoothly to all of the sites. Highlights were the Pagoda and tunnels. Highly recommend.

Ho Chi Minh Tour - The tour was amazing — from the hotel pickup to the evening return, everything was perfect.
The stops were all very interesting: we started with the Central Post Office and the Independence Palace, then moved on to something more interactive like the War Museum, and finally the tunnels with their traps.
Everything was truly impressive.
Our guide was fantastic — we had the pleasure of talking a lot throughout the day, and he explained everything we visited with great clarity and attention to detail.
Even with our limited English, we were able to communicate very well thanks to Manh’s skill and professionalism.
Highly recommended tour!

Excellent Tour! - Katie and her team were a blessing for us in Vietnam. We did a ten day trip to Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang and Hanoi, including the Ha Long bay overnight cruise. We were three families with kids. really amazed by the perfect arrangements, the punctuality and the hospitality of the tour guides. Special mention to Mr. Vinh at Ho Chi Minh who was so nice and patiently explained everything about the history of Vietnam. The best guide ever.
We never had the need to check for vehicles or anything required as part of the tour. We had comfortable vans, which were always on time with great drivers. The cruise chosen for us at Ha Long bay was just fantastic! Katie and her team went out of their way to make us all comfortable.
Finally about Katie. She has been the best host ever. Always prompt, going out of her way to help us with everything. This trip wouldn't have been great without her personal touch.
Anyone travelling to Vietnam should just let Katie and her team to handle it. Guaranteed wonderful times.

Amazing tour with Slim Jim to the Củ Chi tunnels - We had a tour with Thông / Slim Jim which was organized by our hotel. We had an amazing time and Thông added a new perspective to every aspect of the tunnel visit. It was very informative, unexpected, funny and you can tell that Thông has a lot of experience. We could not have asked for a better tour guide. Thank you Thông

Fantastic Tour - Must do - We just completed a city tour with Vinh as our tour guide. From the start communication was great in terms of pick up time and the itinerary. Vinh has excellent English skills. His knowledge of each place that we visited was excellent and he really loved sharing the information with us. The tour was well paced and very professional. I highly recommend this tour!
