Fantastic Tour Itinerary and Tour Guide (Phong)

Phong was such a knowledgeable, friendly and entertaining tour guide! He shared lots of interesting history about Vietnam and the Vietnam War, and his jokes definitely kept the tour fun 😂 We also really appreciated how kind he and our driver, Hung, were at the end of the tour. We asked if they could drop us at another location instead, and they kindly made a short detour for us even though they could have easily declined. It saved us a lot of unnecessary travelling! Really grateful to have had Phong as our guide. He is definitely an asset to Kim Travel! ❤️

20 September 2026: Kuchi Tunnel and Mekong Delta Tour: Wonderful Memories

It was a fascinating tour. At the Cu Chi Tunnels, we learnt about the horrors of the Vietnam War through real experience. On the Mekong Delta tour, even though it was heavy rain, we gained an insight into the culture and customs of the Mekong region in Vietnam through interactions with local people and the cruise. I was also deeply moved by today’s guide Mr. Phong and driver Mr. Hung, who were exceptionally clear in their explanations and who, whilst showing great respect for the local people, were also very attentive to us as tourists. As the driving was quite powerful, it might be a good idea to make an announcement beforehand asking tourists to fasten their seatbelts on the high-way Once again, we would like to thank you for arranging such a wonderful tour.

Cu Chi Cu Chi Coo … and the Mekong Delta

What a day! Mr. Phong (aka Mr. Handsome) and Mr. H, our legendary driver, took us from the Củ Chi Tunnels to the Mekong Delta. We crawled through tunnels, inspected booby traps, and somehow survived with our dignity mostly intact. Then came the truly terrifying part: holding an anaconda! 🐍 Luckily, there was plenty of honey, tropical fruit, coconut candy, and a delicious lunch to restore our courage. Mr. Phong was informative, funny, and full of stories, while Mr. H navigated like a pro. Fantastic tour, great food, plenty of laughs, and unforgettable experiences. Highly recommended—just watch your head underground!…
