Reviews

Duong is a knowledgeable guide who explained the facts in great detail. His English is fluent. He patiently answered all our questions and brought the details to life; By example, telling us about actual family stories. We visited the prison, and a black market in rundown housing area away from the tourists spots, and learnt bout the fascinating history of the place.
