⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Unforgettable Experience Thanks to Bunny!

Our Cu Chi Tunnels tour departing from the Caravelle Hotel was absolutely fantastic, and a huge part of that was thanks to Bunny. From the moment we met her, she was warm, welcoming, and incredibly friendly, making everyone feel comfortable and excited for the day ahead. Bunny's knowledge of Vietnam's history, culture, and the Cu Chi Tunnels was truly impressive. She brought the history to life in a way that was engaging, informative, and easy to understand. Her passion for sharing her country's heritage shone through in every part of the tour and made the experience so much more meaningful. Beyond being knowledgeable, Bunny was exceptionally attentive and thoughtful. She made sure everyone was comfortable, answered every question with patience and enthusiasm, and always had a smile on her face. Her positive energy was contagious and made the entire day enjoyable from start to finish. We thoroughly enjoyed every part of the trip, and Bunny was undoubtedly one of the highlights. She turned what would have been a great excursion into an unforgettable experience. If you're considering a visit to the Cu Chi Tunnels, we can only hope you're lucky enough to have Bunny as your guide. Thank you, Bunny, for a wonderful day and for helping create memories that we'll cherish for years to come. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta - VIP Tour

Samantha_C, Sep 2026

Truly a special experience

Absolutely incredible experience at the Cu Chi tunnels and Mekong Delta! Wasn’t expecting the day to be packed with excursions from start to finish. Very well paced but expect a long day. Loved getting a glimpse into rural Vietnamese life during the long car rides between excursions. Our tour guide Matthew was amazing. He was extremely informative about Vietnam history and the various places we visited. Super down-to-earth, warm and intelligent young man who kept us entertained and comfortable throughout. My husband and I chose the VIP van which was worth the extra cost. It was spacious and extremely comfortable with AC. Huge shoutout to our driver Mr. Dung, he expertly navigated the crazy Vietnam streets in a torrential downpour. Boat rides were so fun and felt very safe. Vietnamese hospitality is on another level. Overall, such a fun day and so worth the money and time. Thanks to all (especially Matthew and Mr. Dung) who helped make the day memorable for me and my husband!

Fantastic day. We went...

Fantastic day. We went as a family of 5 with 3 boys and it was definitely in their top 3 experiences during our travels. I think the AK47s probably helped. However, it really was down to Bac, our amazing tour guide. He was young, enthusiastic and so knowledgeable about his subject. The family love history, particularly military, and poor Bac must have felt at times as if he was on University Challenge. He was well informed and it was fascinating hearing about the politics and history of Vietnam from someone first hand. The boys agreed that the trip would not have been as interesting, or fun, without Bac. Thank you so much for making our trip!

Catherine gave us a wonderful food tour and answered all our questions candidly. I’ve done plenty of food tours all over the world, and this was probably the best. She really helped us understand the Vietnamese culture, and this tour was the highlight of our Vietnam trip.

Amazing day trip from Saigon. The tunnels were fascinating and gave us great insight into Vietnam’s history.

Well organized, personal tour.

Great personal VIP experience. We booked the trip the day before and were contacted by the tour guide on WhatsApp the evening before to confirm pick up time and place, and what to take. Hannah was a very good tour guide and looked after us well. Lunch was included which to our surprise was a large banquet for two at a private table. It was a very enjoyable day.

Ho Chi Minh: Half-Day City Motorbike Tour

Marla_S, Feb 2026

A must-do Ho Chi Minh City experience for people of any age.

Our Motorbike drivers were amazing. My Driver, Ruby, was a delight. She made me (age 77) feel at ease as she maneuvered the streets of the city with bikes, cars, vans, busses, etc going this way and that with ease. She never once made me feel unsafe. The stops that we made as a group were perfect. The Burning Monk monument was something we would have missed on our trip without these guides. Our treats in the market were delicious. Anthony, who was my husband's driver, was a perfect city guide as well as driver. He answered all questions. All of the guides spoke excellent English which made us feel at ease. The traffic in Ho Chi Minh city is truly organized chaos, but even though we were right in the middle of it, our experience was spectacular and truly a highlight of our Southeast Asia trip. Thank you Ruby, Anthony, and our other two drivers for this amazing and fun way to see the city.
