Cu Chi tunnels tour - Another great tour by tour guide Luc. A follow on from the informative tour yesterday as we travelled to Cu Chi in comfort in an air conditioned vehicle with bottled water supplied. The timing was great as we dodged some big crowds and gained some good insights into the Vietnam history.

Private Tour to Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta - This private tour to the Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta was amazing. Our guide was knowledgeable and made the history of the tunnels come alive. The Mekong Delta part was beautiful, with a peaceful boat ride and visits to local villages. Highly recommended for a rich and immersive experience in Vietnam. The tour-guide gave us extra time and destinations on the tour! Highly satisfied!

Cu C hi Tunnels with Luc - Luv was awesome! Very knowledgeable and accommodating. He showed up on time, taught me so much on our ride to Cu Chi Tunnels. Once there is was able to give a a great understanding of how the tunnels were made and how they were used. I’d recommend Luc on any of the Ho. Hi Minh tours Rusty

Excellent Tour and Guide - We were picked up from our hotel and were offered bottles of water. The car was air-conditioned and comfortable. The driver was fairly safe to Vietnamese standards. The drive to Cu Chi is about an hour. Our guide Luc, had excellent communication skills, and was very social and informative. It was very easy to communicate, and he answered all questions about the history of Vietnam not just about the Cu Chi tunnels, but about all of Vietnam history. Luc was able to offer local knowledge on different things we were interested in and was very helpful. The tour is self was very interesting and has a lot of areas where you can walk through the small tunnels and see what it was like. There is a firing range, when you can select a gun to fire. The bullets are quite expensive you have to have a minimum of 10 bullets. each bullet is around 60,000.VND One of the staff will take you down to the pit area where you need to wear ear protection. The guns are mounted however, you are able to move them around and aim for the target. The staff will load the bullets for you. It is extremely loud in this area and in the gift shop. There is a gift shop located at the firing range, and also at the beginning of the tour. I would recommend doing this tour as it is private and you can have a good one on one experience.
