“Overall this was a good tour - our guide Long was great. He did an excellent job presenting the tunnels from all points of view as well an over view of Viet Nam and how it has developed over time. The only negative and this is not Long's issue are the number of visitors at the same time trying to look at the exhibits and get into the tunnels which provide for long periods of standing out in the hot sun. It would be great if the tour companies could work together to stagger the arrivals to better manage the crowds. Also, not sure the stop at the lacquer factory…”

Peter was hard to understand and we felt rushed. Peter had started talking before our party had caught up. At the end there was a short film on the tunnels. The film had already started when we got there, and the audio was hard to hear. On the whole we were slightly disappointed.”
