Cu Chi Tunnel tours

The tour was changed from Japanese to English the day before. The Cu Chi Tunnel was a very good tour. There was a detailed explanation of the traps at each location. I had heard on another tour that it was difficult to go all the way through the tunnel because it was narrow, so I left from the exit one step before. I wondered what would happen when I entered the second basement floor, but the guide was waiting for me near the exit, and it was a very good experience. As I walked through the narrow tunnel, thinking about what they were thinking when they made this tunnel and what they were thinking when they were inside the tunnel, tears came to my eyes. I vowed to protect peace. I did not do the optional shooting, but if you have the courage, I think it is better to experience the three options of shooting + 100m of Cu Chi Tunnel + entering the hole in the dead leaf cover. (About 5 people in a tour of 25 people were experiencing it) I applied for the Japanese tour because I wanted to see it well while studying history, but the Japanese tour was canceled the day before due to a lack of participants. I received a notification on LINE and was asked whether I wanted to join the English tour at the same price or pay the difference for a private tour. A private tour seemed quite expensive, so I arranged an English tour. Information about the meeting place for the alternative tour was slow to come, so I inquired before going to bed at night, and they immediately confirmed the alternative tour and contacted me with the meeting time and the name of the tour guide. The response to my questions and inquiries was very quick, which was very helpful. The English tour is a large group trip, and there are many other tour participants at the site, so it is necessary to remember the guide in charge and to listen and understand the precautions and meeting time in English each time. I think it is a good thing that people from all over the world go to the Cu Chi Tunnels and think about war and peace.

My Cu Chi Tunnels tour booked through Klook was exceptional. The tour was well-organized, and our guide was knowledgeable, offering fascinating insights into Vietnam’s history. Walking through the tunnels was eye-opening, showcasing the resilience of the Vietnamese people. Additionally, visits to sites like the Ben Duoc Memorial Temple enriched our understanding of the region’s history and culture.

very educational and fascinating trip. our tour guide was Travis–who was also helpful, friendly, and accommodating all the time! my only concern was the quality of travel, the driving made me a bit dizzy. other than that, I enjoyed everything! 😊 thank you

The tour guide is enthusiastic and energetic, the explanation is clear, the guidance is efficient, and the service attitude is excellent. Relevant matters and reminders will be contacted by e-mail after ordering, which is reassuring. Hotel pick-up and drop-off must conform to a specific section, not all in the first district. The Chinese description is confusing.

We booked the privat tour because we wanted some privacy and the whole tour on our pace and also to our prefered time. Our Tour guide was so passionate and told us the whole historicak backround into detail and even had good discussions above the pure local War related to the topic. She was always caring and attentive and making sure it is to our full satisfaction. Our driver was always very nice and the car was comfy. We loved the experience and i would probably again book a privat tour then u can really let everything sink in.1

It was a great tour. If you go to Ho Chi Minh City, I recommend you join this tour. The pick-up time was also accurate, and the time was decided by WhatsApp the day before, and we were picked up at 7:50 at the hotel where we were staying in the city center. There were about 10 to 12 people in the van, and Andy immediately started talking about the current situation in Vietnam with great enthusiasm. Unfortunately, I don't understand English, so I couldn't understand the details at all, but since it was an English tour, there were no other Japanese participants, so it was a fresh experience, and I was able to feel Andy's passion. It was a truly memorable tour. We also stopped at a traditional craft workshop to take a toilet break, and I was glad to learn about the background of how the crafts were made. I was already tired of converting prices into yen, so I felt that if there were a few tables where you could convert prices to other currencies than Vietnamese dong, it would be easier to make a decision in a short time. I would have liked to buy a nice paper knife as a souvenir. The most challenging part was going through the tunnel, but I managed to do the shortest course, even though it had been exactly six months since I broke my knee and I have claustrophobia. (My backpack hit the upper wall inside the tunnel (^.^;)) This experience was very meaningful and I was able to get a more real feel for the Vietnam War, which I had only known about from television. I can't imagine traveling to a place 15 kilometers away through that tunnel. It was a truly valuable experience, and it made me want to know more about war. I hadn't intended for the gun experience to be limited to those who wanted to, but my daughter and I shared 10 bullets, 5 each. This is also an important experience to have. You don't know the impact it will have on your body until you experience it. Earmuffs were provided during the experience. It's okay because you can get a gun shot (if you're nervous, it's a good idea to bring wet tissues), but there are quite a few gunshots around, so I recommend bringing earplugs to protect your ears. It was early in the morning, but it was also great to get out of the hustle and bustle of the city and into the forest, and I'm really glad I participated in this tour, which was satisfying enough for about a day. I missed the chance to thank Andy because I couldn't understand English, but it was a really good memory of my trip to Vietnam, as I was able to participate in the No. 1 tour that I couldn't experience anywhere else. Thank you very much.

Pick up was on for at 06:40am and our guide Ben was a kind and customer centric person. The itinerary had a list of items and everything was bundled up carefully. Cu chi tunnels are a witness to the war and intelligence of Vietnam soldiers. They stop at a factory where differently abled people do art work from egg shells and mother of pearl. While the effort is appreciated, it is too expensive to buy. We bought such art at a fraction of price in Ben Thanh market. Mekong delta visit and lunch was awesome, especially the fish and moon rice. We loved feeding fishes and crocodiles, cycling around the village, eating exotic fruits and listening to folk music. This is a must go activity in Ho Chi Minh and it gives you the comfort to cover Cu Chi and Mekong delta in a single day.

Thank you to my guide Hayley for making this trip even better. Not only did she provide detailed introductions to each attraction, but she also included fun interactions and thoroughly answered all questions. Next time, be sure to choose Klook's Cu Chi Tunnels tour!
