Our half-day speedboat trip of the Mekong Delta with Fisheye Tours was amazing. It was an easy and enjoyable way to go by boat. The itinerary gave us fascinating looks into local life by taking us to less touristy, real delta locations. Our tour guide was friendly and well-informed. Strongly recommended!

We went on a private speedboat Saigon River sunset sightseeing tour with Fisheye Travel. This was our last day in Vietnam after a wonderful three-week tour, and it was an ideal way to finish our holiday. Our Tour guide, Ha, met us at our hotel and took us to the boat. The tour lasted for one and a half hours and included a stop at a lovely riverside bar and restaurant for a drink. Ha was friendly, welcoming, enthusiastic, and full of information during our trip. It was beautiful to see the sunset as we returned. It was a great way to finish off what has been a superb holiday.

We had the best tour ever. Our guide was very accommodating and cheerful from the beginning to the end. There were 6 of us and another energetic couple on the tour. We visited the Mekong Delta, where much fun awaited us. We then had a beautiful lunch with so much food at a riverside spot. After that, we went to the Cu Chi Tunnels to learn about the history and even had the opportunity to fire an AK47, a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We were totally in love with all actitivies. If you are in Ho Chi Minh, this tour is a must-do. Well worth the money and highly recommend Fisheye Tours!

We did the half day trip to the tunnels last week. Highly recommended! Our guide was excellent and very knowledgable. The journey to the tunnels via speedboat was a great way to see the city from a different perspective and lunch was good and a lovely location.

Our one-day speedboat tour with Fisheye was an absolute blast! The tour perfectly balanced exploration and relaxation. The speedboat trip through the Mekong Delta was exhilarating. The pastries and fruit onboard were a delicious touch. Lunch at a beautiful resort was the perfect pitstop before exploring the amazing Cu Chi tnnels. Our amazing guide and excellent service made the entire day a breeze. We can't recommend Fisheye Tours highly enough!

We did the Mekong delta and cu chi tunnel full day tour . We were a group of 6 and we all absolutely loved it. From booking to pickup everything was easy . Our tour guide Cain was just wonderful.

“Tips to Beat the crowds”

Cu Chi Tunnels is always very busy and often crowded every day of the week! The crowds increase weekend and during Vietnam’s holiday periods. There can be long morning-queues at every stops with overcrowding on any day you visit.

Here are our tips for enjoying this tour with us:

For Private Tour :  we make an early start ( at 7:30 AM ) to arrive at the tunnel before the long unruly queues that build-up with the arrival of the large group tours. Finish your day mid-afternoon means you miss homewards rush too. This is important advice for families traveling with elders and young children ( you will be back to the city on time for lunch).

WHAT SHOULD WE DO

  • See a self-contained underground city at Cu Chi War Tunnels.
  • Learn all about the ingenious techniques of living underground for days, months and years from the first day that the tunnel formed to the end of Vietnam War.
  • You can look for firing real wartime rifles and machine guns.

WHAT TO EXPECT

  • Learn the struggles of life in wartime Vietnam firsthand when you go below ground in the notorious Cu Chi Tunnels. See how soldiers and civilians lived through the conflicts and the ingenious methods used to conceal themselves.
  • An extremely complex tunnel system, the Cu Chi network covers a wide area of countryside near to Ho Chi Minh city and was an excellent way for the Viet Cong to move underground, undetected by American forces.
  • The Cu Chi tour starts with an introductory video detailing its long 25-year construction. Then it is time to go underground in the infamous 120-mile Cu Chi tunnel system which offered a safe haven for soldiers and thousands of Vietnamese people during the Vietnam War.
  • On display are booby traps, the remains of an US army tank and huge craters left by American B52 bombs. You will be able to admire lots of compelling photos and personal effects left behind.
  • There is also the chance to take part in your own  “ HUNGER GAMES” and fire an authentic AK rifle used during the war (magazines’s fee is on your own).

WHAT TO BRING

  • Mosquito repellent
