A very kind and knowledgeable guide named Tu - Our trip was very good thanks to our sweet guide named Tu, She picked us up on time and in the car on the way there gave us a brief Vietnam history lesson. We talked almost the entire way and she answered a lot of questions. We had a good discussion about many things related to the tragedy and Vietnam history in general.

The tragedy of My Lai - If a person wants to really know what happened at My Lai during the Vietnam War, this is where to find it! Excellent photos, displays and actual remnants of houses are all found here. My guide, Emily, was very knowledgeable and professional in her narratives. A must see in Vietnam.

A Must Trip for All - Everyone should visit and learn about the story of the My Lai Massacre. It was a horrible atrocity committed by the U.S. Army during the Vietnam war. We must not forget the past so these kinds of things never happen again. Guide Emily was amazing, very knowledgeable about the subject.

Educational and memorable experience - Well worth the 1-day visit. My guide, Thai, was very helpful in searching for other massacre sites outside of My Lai village, and we were successful in locating several. Even more fortunate, he found a survivor of the massacre, an elderly woman, who had been shot in the leg and back. She is now unable to walk. Unforgettable visit.
