Unforgettable experience and friendly tour guide - Our tour guide was Desmond, who was very attentive and sent me a message the day before the trip to tell me the pick-up time for the next day and what I needed to prepare for. We were picked up on time that morning and some of the history of Ho Chi Minh was explained in the car. I am also very satisfied with the experience and explanation of the tunnel. I also have question and answer interactions with tourists from time to time instead of just one-sided explanation.
