Amazing experience! Highly rexommended! - We had an amazing tour with Linh! She shared so much knowledge with us as she took us all around Saigon! Since I was traveling with my mother on a private tour, they were able to customize our tour to exactly what we wanted’ furthermore, we changed our minds last minute to go to Saigon instead of the Mekong Delta because the drive was far and we didn’t have the time, so Henry from the sales department was easy to get in touch with and helped to rearrange our trip for us right before! We really had an amazing experience and highly recommend this tour and this company!

Great Tour in Vietnam! - If you go to Vietnam, request Khang! He was excellent and fun to be with. Great history knowledge and outstanding photographer, he took so many excellent pictures of my wife and I. I cannot say enough good things about Khang and how he took care of us …. He is 5 Star!

Five ***** - We knew we had picked the right guide when Lee greeted us with his warm smile! His father had been a Viet Cong soldier and he was passionate about the war. He was very knowledgeable, funny, interesting and above all refreshing in his approach. My husband had balance problems and Lee never left his side. We toured in a comfortable air conditioned car with a driver who efficiently negotiated the chaotic traffic. Five ***** for them both!

Good experience with Lee, a knowledgeable, funny, tour guide - Lee has been our favorite guide so far. He speaks good English and is very funny. He taught us so much about Viet Nam and Saigon and showed us his home "Mekong Delta". We really enjoyed our day and wished we had more time to explore Viet Nam with Lee as our guide.

highly recommend - Henry wase great. he replied to all of my emails quickly and professionally. We will book with Vietnam Shore Excursion in the future, when we get a chance to visit Vietnam.Unfortunately we had to cancel our tour, because our cruise was not able to stop there due to Coronavirus fears. I regret not being able to meet them in person.
