Full description

This is a 4-hour experience in Ho Chi Minh City. It is run by Vintage Vietnam, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

A private day with a driver-guide is the way to see the most of a Japanese city or region in one day, because it removes the transfers between sights that eat a third of the day on public transport. Prices are usually per vehicle for up to a set number of guests rather than per person, and cover the car, fuel, tolls and the guide; entrance fees and lunch are paid as you go unless the listing says otherwise. Japanese guides are licensed for the work and typically punctual to the minute. Give the operator your priorities, and expect them to reorder the day around opening hours and crowds; that is what you are paying for.

The price covers Pick up and drop off at the center of Saigon, tour guide, Bottled water on the car, Light snack with tapioca and tea at Cu Chi tunnel and AC car. It does not cover Tips and personal expenses, Bullet fee at Cu Chi shooting range and Surcharge for the holidays in Vietnam, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

Vintage Vietnam sends the meeting point and time by email as soon as the booking is confirmed. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Vintage Vietnam before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Includes

  • Pick up and drop off at the center of Saigon
  • English-Speaking tour guide (Surcharge for other languages)
  • Bottled water on the car
  • Light snack with tapioca and tea at Cu Chi tunnel
  • AC car

Had the most amazing time with Du going through the Cu chi tunnels. Du was informative, friendly and a great guide throughout the day. The experience was very easy, with a hotel pickup in a nice car and a cruisy ride to the tunnels. We learned a lot and enjoyed the experience so much!

Abbiamo prenotato l’escursione per il sito di Cu Chi (solo tunnel senza Ho Chi Min Coty). Ottimo il Transfer con la guida in italiano (Lily è stata davvero carina e disponibile). La guida in italiano è disponibile con un sovrapprezzo ed è specificato (quella in inglese sarebbe compresa), tuttavia al momento dell’acquisto non avevano specificato che non sarebbero stati compresi i ticket di accesso al sito. Ma a seguito della nostra richiesta di chiarimenti l’agenzia si è scusata e ha provveduto essa stessa al pagamento. Esperienza tutto sommato piacevole ma forse con un prezzo eccessivo. (Consi

Een eyeopener op verschillende vlakken. De boeiende dag begon met een passage/bezoek aan diverse plaatsen in Ho Chi Min stad. De oudste Chinese tempel, de Notre Dame ( in de steigers weliswaar), het postkantoor, het presidentiële paleis, de overdekte markt (voor namaak in t kwadraat 😉) , om dan in het oorlogsmuseum de geschiedenis over o.a. de Vietnam-oorlogsgebied te ervaren. Zeer aangrijpend & ontnuchterend! Gestopt voor een lekkere lunch en dan op weg naar de Cu Chi tunnels. Het leven v de VC zoals t was & waarvan je mond openvalt. De tunnels moet je gedaan hebben (al was ‘t op handen & kni

Nuestra guía fue amigable . Sin embargo, la agencia operadora publicó un tour para visitar los túneles y la ciudad que era imposible de lograr en 6 horas así que finalmente hicimos algo más corto. Deberían publicar con claridad las opciones de itinerario y su costo

Yes. A widened section of 20 to 100 metres is open to crawl through, with exits every 20 metres, so you can leave when you like; it is hot and tight, and anyone claustrophobic can skip it. Children from about six manage it well. The shooting range is optional and paid on site per bullet.
