Reviews
For a deeper dive into Vietnam's history, the Cu Chi Tunnels was absolutely fascinating. It's also an intense but worthwhile experience, especially if you love history. On the same journey, the Cao Dai Temple offered a completely different atmosphere-peaceful, colorful, and spiritually intriguing. Learning about the unique blend of reliaions practiced there added depth to the trip. Plus, the playfu monkeys around the area added o ighthearted touch (just keep an eye on your belongings!). Finally, Sun World Ba Den Mountain was easily one of the highlights. The cable car ride alone is breathtaking, giving you panoramic views as you ascend the mountain. But the real thrill? The alpine coaster. It's fast, fun, and an absolute must-try-ending the trip on such an adrenaline high was the perfect finale. Tour guide Thang is funny and friendly
we had so much fun with this tour, we booked it on a tuesday so it was not crowded and we are surprised to find out we are only a group of 4 going to do the trip. it may have been about 2hrs+ one way to and from the foot of the mountain but reaching there is totally worth it. we paid extra for the cable cars because it was excluded from the package. i wish there was more time for us to spend at the peak because there was so much to go to and the place is HUGE huge. but still we think we made just the right choice of following our tourguide or else we wouldve missed a stop there. i think if we only have more free time of roaming around it will be better. but overall we liked this tour, its totally underrated and this is way better than mekongdelta.
The full day tour was enjoyable! Departed early at ~7am & returned to the city at ~7pm. Our tour guide, Thắng, was very informative & accommodating. He even helped us take pictures & was flexible with our preferences. No other tourmates at that time & so it was as if we booked a private tour. Dropped by a lacquerware production place first where you could see & buy lacquerware products made by handicaps. Thắng was knowledgeable about the details in Cu Chi Tunnels & even sampled to go in & out of the shorter tunnel first. If you're able to go inside the tunnels, it's certainly worth the experience. We then had some snacks & headed to the Cao Đài Temple at Tây Ninh. Lunch was sumptuous & delicious. At Bà Đen Mountain, the structure & area was so huge that we only took one cable car line, the one to the top of the mt. (taking the other one would consume more time but it can also be done on the same day if you like). An educational, entertaining, & memorable activity to try!
Had a great time visiting Cao Dai Temple and Ba Den Mountain with the family. Our tour guide was helpful, knowledgeable and cheerful despite challenging conditions (delay on return from the mountain by cable car due to bad weather). We went midweek and it wasn't crowded, but I think it gets very busy on weekends. Ba Den Mountain is a new modern tourist attraction with spectacular architecture. Would have also liked to visit the pagoda on the mountain but that's via a separate cable car and not included with this tour. Maybe next time.
i really recommend this Tour! The whole package is such a great deal and honestly, it’s worth every penny. They even pick you up and drop you off at your door, which was so convenient. The lunch included in the trip was super tasty and actually healthy too. All the activities were awesome, but our guide, James, made the trip. He was so fun there was never a boring moment with him! He really made sure we were all taken care of and taught us so much about Vietnam’s history and culture
This tour was an amazing day! We saw the unique Cao Dai Temple, took in stunning views from Ba Den Mountain, and had a powerful historical experience at the Cu Chi Tunnels. The highlight was the alpine slide and the ice creams. James was fantastic and made the whole trip fun and engaging. Highly recommend this tour!
The tour agents message us 1 day in advance for the pick up time , 8.55am pick us up to Cu Chi Tunnels to wait for our tour guide to bring us to Ba Den Mountain because we didn’t book the Tunnels trip .Around 11am we board the another bus with our tour guide -James , we brought the cable ticket to the peak around $32.50 .Luckily we didn’t buy the ticket to Pagoda , not enough time to tour at Pagoda.The Lunch provided not to our taste , so we eat a little bit just to fill our stomach.Over all , it a good experience to explore the peaks and enjoy the places so much .
It wasvery good experience to see the amazing tunnels & experienced it by going inside. Ba den alpine coaster was very thrilling experience. our guide khang was taking photos for my family. he & driver thanh are nice person.
The Cao Dai Temple & Ba Den Full Day Tour from Ho Chi Minh City was an excellent experience and definitely worth the money. The itinerary was well-organized, and we had enough time to enjoy the beautiful sights and learn about the local culture. A special thanks to our tour guide, Mark, who was very fun, friendly, and professional throughout the trip. He shared interesting information, kept the group engaged, and made the experience enjoyable from start to finish. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Ho Chi Minh City and looking for a memorable day tour!
