Top Vietnam Day Trips - page 3

A really good trip - but not for those that aren’t steady on their feet. Amazing views over Da Nang and the bay. Lady Buddha and its grounds are a lovely respite from the hustle and bustle of Da Nang. The caves in Marble Mountain are stunning. The steps on the climb up the maintain are steep and tall at times but you get a free workout and a really worthwhile experience so it’s all worth the effort. Our guide Yen was really informative and great fun

If you are looking to visit the Cu Chi Tunnels without spending half your day stuck in Saigon traffic, this speedboat tour is the only way to go. Highlights of the Trip. • The Need for Speed: Leaving from the pier in Ho Chi Minh City, we bypassed the crowded roads and arrived at the tunnels in record time. The breeze on the river was a massive relief compared to the city heat, and the views of the riverbanks were stunning. • Our Guide, Ngoc Thanh: A huge shoutout to Thanh, who was absolutely brilliant. His knowledge wasn't just "textbook"—he provided deep, emotional, and factual context that truly brought the history to life. He kept us engaged the entire time and answered every question with impressive detail. • Expert Perspectives: What really set this tour apart was the insight into the Viet Cong perspective. Thanh explained the ingenious engineering of the tunnels and the strategic use of the environment. Seeing the site through the lens of those who lived there—and understanding the logistics of the river as a supply line—gave us a completely new appreciation for the history. The Verdict: It’s efficient, exhilarating, and educational. If you want a premium experience that respects your time and provides top-tier historical insight, book this tour and ask for Thanh.

We enjoyed our drive from Hue to Hoi An. We made stops along the way at Ghost City, Marble Mountain, a beautiful bay, and a mountain pass fortress. The driver spoke good English, picked us up, and dropped us off at our hotel in Hoi An right on time. I recommend this trip to anyone traveling between Hue and Hoi An.

Our trip to the Mekong Delta was a great experience and definitely worth the day. Levi was our guide, and even though he looks very young, he was incredibly engaging, confident, and knowledgeable with the whole group. He explained everything clearly, kept the energy up throughout the day, and made sure everyone felt included and comfortable. The itinerary was well planned and gave us a really nice overview of the Mekong Delta lifestyle, culture, and scenery. If you only have one day to spare from Saigon and still want a meaningful Mekong Delta experience, this tour is absolutely the way to go.

Excellent communication from the travel agent . I can’t tell you how impressed we were - I booked a private trip for 4 people - we had our own boat and guide just for us and the lunch on board was restaurant quality and so much of it. HaLong Bay is so beautiful and unexpected . I would highly recommend this trip . Unbelievable value for money and the scenery is just breathtaking

Tom and Kong were our guides on this trip, and they were fantastic!! They were both very generous with their knowledge of Ha Long Bay and kept us safe and entertained all day. The kayaking through the caves was a particular highlight, and the food at lunch was plentiful and delicious! Thanks for making our one day on Cat Ba very memorable!

We had a great time visiting the tunnels, learned a lot about the history, guerrilla tactics and survival skills of this brave people. Our guide, An, was very organised and knew a lot about the history and culture of, even got us a great sandwich at the end. Would definitely recommend to anyone willing to learn about the history of the conflict and land as well.

This experience has exceeded our expectations. We were just amazed on how grand the caves are and we are so blessed to be able to see this in person. Pictures are not enough to describe it and our tour guide Chocolate has been wonderful to explain all information both in English and in Vietnamese. Highly recommend it, just fyi, be prepared for long hike. Also, bring cash if you want to buy souvenirs right after the tour and cold drinks, cold coconuts for refreshment!
