Great, efficient service. Lovely to cruise up river in a boat as opposed to a minivan. Being able to arrive before the majority of the day tourists was a huge plus! Quite quiet at the tunnels when we started but packed when we were leaving. Guide was friendly and informative. Highly recommend this as a much better option than taking a minivan tour!

Highly recommend this tour. Was a nice way to see the sights on the way from the river. Fresh air and not to be stuck in traffic on a bus. Plenty of fresh fruit and drinks on way and return. Nice lunch at a restaurant included. Very informative guide.

A must do if visiting Saigon for the first time. A harrowing, confronting and authentic look into the not so distant past.

This is the 2nd time I have done this tour, the first being 14 years ago. Just as great the second time around. For a family with young kids, the 1 hour boat ride is much preferred over the 2.5 hours on a bus. Open air, flat and fast! Back home before the heat of the day. The tour itself is amazing and eye opening and highly recommended for anyone visiting HCMC.
