Tour guide would message via WhatsApp the day before activity to inform you what time is the pickup. Pickup is on point, arrive 5mins before pickup time. Move on to pickup the rest who is part of the tour. Anthony the tour guide assigned to us gave us a detailed history class on why is saigon called saigon and some other historical information and how to pronounce Cuchi. Journey to Cuchi take about 2hr and after an hour there is a bio break where there is also a gift shop supporting orange agent victims. We went for shooting range first followed by tunnel tour, if you are up for the "duck walk" within the tunnel give it a try or you can choose to walk forward with the guide. Warning, sore thighs the next day. Haha. All in all, the tour is fun because of the informative details that Anthony Vo shared. Highly recommended to purchase this tour

It was a very interesting tour made even more enjoyable by the excellent sense of humour of our tour guide Dan. Not easy to showcase this difficult Vietnamese history. Cu Chi tunnels are a must see to appreciate the resilience of the Vietnamese people and intelligence to survive heavy bombings.
