Great tour for the whole family - We booked a private tour to better suit our elderly parents and David from intrepid was amazing. He never made us feel rushed and really catered for the parents. It was so special to share the rich history with more of the family and it was great to have a guide that was a clear communicator who patiently answered all our questions.

Immersive Cu Chi Experience with Tea - Touring the Cu Chi Tunnels with Tea was great and fully of fun! Her engaging storytelling brought history to life as we navigated narrow passages and explored hidden relics. The hands-on experience was both educational and thrilling. Highly recommended for history enthusiasts!

Worthwhile unearthing of painful history - Tan was an excellent tour guide! He was very informative and engaging - especially with his family stories. His overall perspective & knowledge of Vietnamese history brought great value to what could have been a grim experience.

Marvelous guide! Highly recommend! - Tan is a marvelous guide! During our bus ride to the tunnels, he set the stage in such a helpful way—explaining the tunnels in historical context and augmenting w/ personal & family stories. He is an excellent communicator, knowledgeable, personable & also has a terrific sense of humor. Highly recommend!
