Excellent trip out to the coast, with an amazing approachable tour guide. Unfortunately it was a long drive from HMC, we were given toilet breaks and the mini bus was very comfortable, was worth it for a fantastic day out. It was nice to have a break from the city and breath some fresh air. I would 100 % recommend the trip for all the family.

Both Kha and the driver were excellent. The day was organised so well. The highlight was definitely Tha Christ statue. A lot of steps but definitely worth it. My husband’s shorts weren’t the correct length and Kha came to the rescue. Thanks again!

This activity was good if you want to experience some sights of coastal Vietnam. The Jesus statue guards are very strict on clothing so ensure you are covered from your knees/shoulders onwards. The white palace is nice, and the beach is peaceful with an hour to relax. The lunch they provided was excellent, even though it was the set menu, the variety of food given was plentiful. The tour guide, Anthony was polite, helpful and knowledgeable. On the journey back we were desperate for a restroom and Anthony kindly obliged even though it was not on the schedule.

Enjoyed the 1 day trip to Vung Tau but didn't get time to enjoy the beach. The guide was fantastic and very funny making it an enjoyable day out. Oh, yes the lunch was worth going on this trip, excellent.

Definitely a recommended tour if you’re looking for relaxing day away from HCMC to visit the seaside city of Vung Tau. Davis is an enthusiastic guide and will fill you in on the history of the city’s most prominent points.

Our guide, Dan made our day from start to finish. His command of English and knowledge not only of Vietnamese history but the world generally was a bonus. We loved our time on the beach, the great restaurant for lunch and even the 1,000 steps to Jesus Christ Statue. The White Palace (Villa Blance) was an interesting part of the French history in this country to visit. Seeing some of the new expressway infrastructure was a plus.

The guide was great, I was disappointed we didn’t spend more time at the beach or have the option of staying longer and not seeing others things, the food was horrible.. sorry, I would of loved a local restaurant with local food. And if someone doesn’t come back to the car and we have to wait 45 minutes, leave them there..

The tour guide was friendly, but the information wasn't very detailed, and the delivery could have been more engaging. The weather was bad this morning, so we couldn't climb up the Jesus Statue. In my opinion, if it's terrible, we should visit the villa first and then go to the statue later. The lunch was decent. Considering it's a seafood restaurant, there were four vegetarian options.
