Helen_T, Feb 2024

a must do trip if you go to Ho Chi Minh. Our guide slim Jim (today??) was so informative and one of the better guides we have had. A little bit apprehensive about going into the tunnels but so glad I was convinced to do it. The trip we had included lunch in a lovely restaurant overlooking the Saigon river very relaxing.

Our tour guide, "Slim Jim" was top notch. He added a lot of information based on personal experience to the tour which made it all the more interesting. The tunnels and booby traps are quite ingenious and a must see while in HCM City.

Ben Duoc Tunnels

mariiannalpz, Oct 2019

The description of this activity is not completely true. We didn't watch the video, didn't visit the memorial temple & didn't drink tea. At the tunnels there were some aircrafts that we wanted to see but "there was no time for that", nevertheless there was time to make an unnecessary stop where of course they expected us to buy some souvenirs. We were suggested to tip.. twice. Our guide Laughing was really friendly and knowledgeable. Talking about the tunnels itself, it is a good and worth experience.

Response from Host, May 2023

Xin Chào! Thank you for sharing your feedback on the activity. We apologize if the description did not match the actual experience you had. We appreciate your honest input regarding the missed video, memorial temple visit, and tea drinking. We will review and update the activity description to ensure accuracy. Regarding the visit to the tunnels, we regret that there wasn't enough time to see the aircrafts you were interested in. We understand your disappointment and will address this matter with our team to improve the itinerary in the future. We apologize if the stop for souvenirs felt unnecessary. We aim to provide a well-rounded experience, but we understand that different preferences exist among our guests. Your feedback will help us refine the itinerary and ensure a more enjoyable experience for future travelers. We appreciate your kind words about our guide, Laughing. We will pass along your compliments to him for his friendly and knowledgeable service. Thank you for choosing our tour and sharing your thoughts. We value your feedback, and we hope to have the opportunity to serve you better in the future. Best regards, Kelvin Luong Mr
