Personally, I think the itinerary is well-arranged, except for a part where there are some sales pitches. But I can understand it, as day tours often include these types of sales pitches.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 – Unforgettable Private Tour Experience! Our Private Tour to Explore Mekong Delta was absolutely outstanding from start to finish. Jason, our tour guide, delivered an exceptional experience — attentive, knowledgeable, and incredibly adaptable to our group’s preferences. He truly made the day special and personal. The travel arrangements were luxurious and seamless, and the tour itself exceeded all expectations — culturally rich, vibrant, and full of energy. The food was delicious, the service impeccable, and every detail was thoughtfully planned. The highlight was definitely the Mekong River, it was breathtakingly beautiful and an unforgettable part of the trip. We highly recommend this private tour experience to anyone visiting Vietnam. Huge thanks to Jason and the entire team for creating such a memorable and enjoyable day for Dance With Me Sydney family!

We had an amazing experience on my tour with Hái! He was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and made the entire experience enjoyable. His passion for the local culture really stood out, and he shared fascinating stories and facts that made the tour so much more interesting. Hái was attentive to everyone in the group, always ready to answer questions and personalize the experience. We left with a deeper understanding and appreciation of the area. I highly recommend booking a tour with Hái – you won’t be disappointed!

We had a fantastic day exploring the Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta as a family of five! Our guide, Nick, was absolutely brilliant, friendly, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable. He made the whole experience engaging and enjoyable for everyone. Boo Boo, our driver, was excellent too - safe, smooth driving and always ready with a smile and a dance. The VIP tour bus was super comfortable and made the journey really relaxing between stops. Everything ran perfectly on time, and we got to see and do so much without ever feeling rushed. Highly recommend this tour — it was one of the highlights of our Vietnam trip!

I was pleased that the guide was always attentive to each participant. They also provided polite explanations during the journey and kept things interesting with stories unrelated to the tour. The reasonable price for this quality is the most recommended thing. If I had to point out a drawback, it would be good if the tour schedule included approximate times before applying.

When you explore the Cu Chi Tunnels Vietnam, you’re not just walking through history—you’re crawling through it. You’ll learn how the tunnels were cleverly designed to protect against enemy forces and get a close-up look at wartime tools, booby traps, and even taste survival food like boiled tapioca. It’s a mix of hands-on discovery and serious reflection that travelers say is “super super interesting” and completely worth your time.
