Excellent in every respect. Ethan the guide was great and everything went According to plan from the pickup to the boat ride, tunnels and lunch. Ethan passed on masses of knowledge and was a great guide. If you only do one trip out of Saigon, do this one with Kim Travel.

We got what we booked. Our two tour guides Trung and Nim were very easy to understand and tried very hard. On the return trip by speedboat, we were even allowed to sit in the front. You have to know that there are currently a lot of tourists in this place. And unfortunately we couldn't understand the documentary at the start of the tour. However, the organizer cannot help.

Interesting tour, but a lot of tourists on site. The return trip by boat could be saved with a view to the price difference, since you can already see everything from the water on the outward journey and the boat trip (1.5 h) is certainly not a great time saver compared to the bus.
