Informative with a great guide - Booked this tour before arriving in Vietnam and all contact with the organiser was efficient and easy. We were messaged the day before by our guide, Justin, who confirmed our pick up time and stayed in touch on the morning to ensure we had everything we needed to make the most of the tour. The tour started with a stop off to see rice paper being made and have a go for ourselves. This in itself was evidfence of the small details which make for the overall experience. The stop was a nondesript dwelling by the side of the road, but once inside we were treated to friendly vietnamese hospitality by the lady who shared her house with us to demonstrate the work she did. The fact this was so low key and not some tourist centred operation gave us a real insight into how these small, family businesses operate. Then on to the tunnels and a well paced, informative tour by Justin who was articulate and enthusiastic, happy to talk about all aspects of the war and the consequences for the vietnamese people and coutry. A great balance of information and exploration as we tried the tunnels for ourselves. My son and i were happy to go through every tunnel, though some were quite challenging, especially in the heat. The site of the tunnels wasn't busy, we were never rushed and we got to see everything at our own pace. This tour advertises itself specifically as more personal than the more popular alternative site as a little further away but much quieter and while i can't say how it compared to that other site, i was glad i chose this tour. Recommended.

Chris was our tour guide - he was knowledgeable, fun & spoke excellent English He answered our endless questions and always ensured everyone was happy and enjoying themselves.

Awesome morning at cu chi tunnels - We had a great day today with Kain as our guide and Mr Hill the most excellent driver to the cu chi tunnels at Ben duoc. Kains knowledge on the history of how the Vietnam conflict started was by far the best I have had (including the war remnants museum in HCMC) so thanks so much for that! Great morning and stopping at the laquer workshop and rice paper making was a real bonus! Thanks again team AN tours!

Unique experience and amazing your - We decided to take the private tour to the cu chi tunnels with AN tour after doing a little research as they had a good value for money! We decided to pay a bit more to have a private tour as we have a little one and wanted to spend the time needed to immerse ourselves into the experience. Visiting this place was in our bucket list and we truly enjoyed every second. Our guide, Justin, was so knowledgeable and friendly. He made our tour truly unique and filled with so much facts about the Viet Cong history. To began with we had a little stop at the handicapped workshop (nice little stop but we didn’t end up buying anything as the price is a bit steep). After that, we stopped at the rice paper maker and it was such an amazing experience, the lady was so friendly and made every effort to communicate with us in English, we bought some snacks which my toddler devoured quickly. Following that, straight to the cu chi tunnels were we had the chance to learn more about all the clever tactics used by the Viet congs, it is mind blowing how smart they were, also we got to try the tapioca (cassava) which was the main food source for the Viet Congs. To finish our tour we stopped at the shooting range where my husband was so excited to shoot a few rounds. Our experience was amazing and unforgettable! Thank you AN tour and Justin.

Cu Chi Tunnel Private Tour. - We had a great trip to Cu Chi Tunnels at Ben Duoc, we were picked up from our hotel in a private car with our guide and also a driver. First stop was a rice paper making experience which was great and then a quick stop at the rifle range to have a go at shooting. Next we went to Ben Duoc tunnels which were very interesting and much quieter than the other main Cu Chi tunnels site we visited a year previously. This was a much more in depth experience with much more to see. Our guide was very informative and friendly and the driver was very safe.......I would definitely recommend AN Tours.

A fulfilling and exciting tour a great day out - We had a terrific day out with bin who was very welcoming and knowledgeable for everything we started off at the lamphat painting that was a great experience to see the local paintings and craftsmanship behind it. Then headed off to the rice paper village to be filled in on what they make and how to make it with a hands on experience in making them ourselves. Bin then gave us a full tour around the cu chi tunnels explaining everything and making the history come alive around the whole tour and did fantastic to explain everything. An exciting addition was to be able to go to the shooting range to let off some rounds.

Good day out showing more than just the CuChi Tunnels - Our tour guide was Bin, met at our hotel and took us out to lamphat where they created paintings out of sea shells and egg shells to create beautiful portraits. Followed by a rice paper field workshop where we got to try our hand at making rice paper rolls. A lot of fun! Cu Chi tunnels were quite an experience and a lot more knowledgeable with Bin. And got to finish off the day at the shooting range by the tunnels. Thanks heaps Bin!

Great tour of cu chi - Amazing half day tour of the Cu Chi tunnels today with our lovely tour guide Bin. He was very knowledgable and gave us lots of information before we arrived at the tunnels. Highly recommend this tour as we only saw a hand full of other tourists the whole day and it felt like a personable experience. Thank you again Bin.
