Incredible experience!!!! Must see!! - It was truly an amazing day! The black virgin mountain was absolutely breathtaking. Superbly fantastic to see. The cable car ride was cool and the view was stunning. The gardens and architecture of the temple was extraordinary. The water show at the Buddha was a sight to see. The Cao Dai temple was very impressive the architecture and paint was so surreal. The colors were so vibrant and almost seemed as if my eyes were deceiving me. The Cu Chi tunnels was a freaking awesome experience. It truly gave a very great appreciation for what soldiers on both sides of the war had to go through. The Vietnamese soldiers were extremely resilient, resourceful and tactical. As a history major in undergrad it was an incredible learning experience. I will never forget this.
What made the entire experience 100% better was the absolutely fantastic tour guide we had! Bin was extremely knowledgeable and had answers to every single question we asked. He even gave us background to things we didn’t ask and would explain the history of different parts of HCMC as we drove through to our various stops. He is a very very very good tour guide. If you have the chance to go on a tour, I highly recommend requesting him. He was exceptional and he added considerable value to the tour and our experience.
Last but not least was our driver, Lucky! He was awesome! He drove so well and we never felt in any danger. He was very good driver and navigated the busy streets of HCMC like a true driving professional. Both were so patient as they waited and never rushed us through the tour. We were lucky to have Lucky and Bin as our driver and tour guide!
10 out of 10. 5 stars would recommend to anyone.

Good tour to spend a day outside of Ho Chi Ming city. - It was a long drive and a long day for this tour. We left the hotel around 7:30 AM and didn’t return to the hotel around 6:45 PM.
The black virgin peak is interesting place with cable car ride up the peak. It is a special place with magnificent view.
The Cao Dai temple is so so and the Cu Chi tunnel is interesting.

Amazing experience - The tour was outstanding. Very well organized. The tour guide, Bin and the driver Lucky were very friendly, professional and accommodating. Bin was patient, knowledgeable , friendly and was able to answer all my questions about history, culture, politics etc about Vietnam. The black mountain area was stunning with amazing enormous Buddha statute and also a beautiful Bodisatva statue. Cao dang temple was sp beautiful and colorful in a peaceful setting. The Cui chi tunnels were so interesting and tragic at the same time. be careful in the tunnels because some are very cramped and low. I recommend highly this tour with Bin and Lucky .

Incredible Experience - This tour was filled with highlights! We were picked up right on time from our hotel and headed out to the Black Virgin Peak. It was a bit of drive but absolutely worth it. The views were breathtaking, we could see all the way into Cambodia. Next we stopped for a yummy lunch and a quick stop to see the beautiful Cao Dai temple. To round off the day we visited the Cu Chi Tunnels, our guide timed this perfectly as we missed the morning crowds. Throughout the tour our guide Kevin shared his impressive knowledge of the areas we were in and kept us entertained throughout the day. I’d highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting HCM!

Very fun solo tour - Excellent experience! Tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable, and transportation was very comfortable. Really interesting itinerary that takes you outside the city- trip between Saigon and Black Virgin mountain almost as scenic as the destinations themselves. Would definitely recommend for solo travelers.
