Die Tour mit Cory war super und für uns perfekt organisiert. Leckeres Essen auch für uns als Vegetarier. Cory vermittelt einen guten Einblick in das Lebens der Mekong Menschen:)

We found this tour very informative. James was a great guide and took us through the area making sure we always had a quieter spot so that we weren’t waiting long anywhere. Going into the tunnels was quite daunting but because we kept moving I never felt too claustrophobic! You are in and out in a few minutes.

Onze gids “Harry” van Ace Travel was geweldig. Hij legde goed uit hoe listig de Vietcong zich verdedigden tegen de Amerikanen. Ook was hij heel betrokken doordat zijn grootvader had meegevochten en zowel hij als zijn vader nu nog altijd de gevolgen dragen van het ontbladeringsmiddel “agent orange” dat de Amerikanen gebruikten.

The your guide had good humor and shared his knowledge of the history of Vietnam (Harry was his name, awesome guide). The trip by bus was nice also because we got to see some of the city on the way. The museum has tunnels enlarged for tourists to get a feel for what it was like to crawl through and duck into some of the entrances and crawl spaces and it really gives you a quick glimpse into what the participants of the war were up against. Quite a humbling experience. The shooting is a cool add on, it's a little expensive but worth a few rounds as some of those guns are not legal in many count

Harry fut un super guide pour cette excursion ! Sans chichi ni blabla, Harry nous raconte l'histoire et va droit au but. Si vous recherchez une excursion non commerciale et riche en expérience, je vous la conseille ! Le trajet en bus fut lui parfait avec une conduite attentionnée et sécuritaire. Merci à vous

La explicación de Harry, nuestro guía, sobre la historia de Vietnam y la importancia de los túneles durante la guerra fue super completa, muy recomendable. La experiencia de estar dentro de los túneles y recorrerlos por algunos minutos fue increíble.

We left Saigon an hour later than written, so it already felt we woke up unnecessarily early. Our guide was friendly and spoke good English, but while we were there, other guides presented in a more entertaining way and shared more facts that we wanted to listen to more. Also guiding was not loud enough, our group scattered sometimes and the guide was hard to find (no flag or umbrella, etc) so they would not wait with explaining and we missed parts. It is rather stupid of the location that the shooting range is right next to the little buffet (the only one inside where you can get drinks, food

La visite était top ! Merci à Harry qui a été le guide. Il est très disponible et chaleureux. Au retour nous avions eu le choix d’être déposé au musée de la guerre, ce qui était bien pratique. Nous avons visité une fabrique artisanale d’objets en bois très intéréssante également.
