Cu Chi Tunnel Tour with Tom - The entire experience was one I will never forget. Tom was so accommodating in various ways to our entire group. He made sure we understood the history of Vietnam and clearly answered all of our questions while making it a fun interactive experience. Tom was one of the best tour guides I have had and I will definitely be recommending him and this tour to anyone who comes this way.

Ms. Sunny (guide) brought us into the War Era. We imagine the situation, see stuffs and feel thier pain/grief - Booked our tour with Joy Journey (Mr. Po). Our whole trip was guided by Ms. Sunny. We had a wonderful "war experience" in Cu Chi Tunnel with tour guide Ms. Sunny. We made an early start to arrive at the tunnel, finished mid-afternoon. At the tunnels, we could : ✓ Watch documentary video. ✓ Experience the thrill of crawling into the tunnels ✓ Visit their underground bunkers (Meeting Rooms, Hospitals, Ammunitions, Etc.) ✓ See the collection of guns and traps, enormous size of bomb crater ✓ See hoang cam smokeless kitchen where you can understand how vietnam soldiers hide smoke ✓ Play firing range (Bullets Fee Is Not Included) ✓ Try tapioca (The Food Vietnamese Ate During The War)

Amazing Cu Chi Tunnel Tour experience - Our guide Alex was so knowledgeable that it was difficult for us to believe that he just an undergrad student right now. It was a private tour with Alex and all of us were left impressed with the maturity, calmness and the perspective that Alex shared with us throughout the tour. Would highly recommend Alex and this tour to anyone interested in not only an adventure outing but also keen on understanding the Vietnam war and the circumstances closely

Amazing experience with the best guide! - I had an amazing experience visiting the Cu Chi tunnels with our guide Safa. From the moment I hopped on to the van with two other solo travelers, we all became instant friends where Safa explained to us the complex, sad history about the war. We got to go through the tunnels from beginning to end (140 meters) which Safa mentioned we were his only group to do so since most folks stop much sooner since it's compact, dark, and hot down there. Visiting the center for people with disabilities was amazing to see the great products they create by hand and how each piece is made.
