Although the drive was long and the roads leading to the destination were a little bit rough, the visit to the Cao Dai Temple was simply worth it. The afternoon ceremony which we were able to witness was something I have never seen before. Also, the temple itself is really beautiful with its intricate architecture and the symbolism painted on the walls. It was such an awesome and somewhat surreal experience. As for the Cu Chi Tunnels, seeing the actual methods which the guerrilla fighters used in the war was also a great experience. It is definitely something visitors of the country should never miss. One point which this tour can improve on was the lunch which was included in the package.

Amazing experience! Didn’t know we had an extra stopover where we got to see the amazing artwork by locals. The tour guide was extremely friendly. Wish our cu chi tunnel experience wasn’t too rushed though...

Great learning experience. Tour guide was very knowledgeable about the vietnamese war. The temple was quite boring, only the sculptures were pretty. We also had to make 1 stop on the way to the temple where the tour guide showed us how the Vietnamese people do shell paintings. He said it was a “toilet stop” but i think its more of getting commission from tourists.

Temple visit was quite unique..it was timed nicely to witness the prayer ceremony. Colorful temple. Proceeded to Cu Chi tunnels after lunch. Our guide enlightened us about the battle strategies of the locals during the war. Going through the tunnels was a "scary" but fun experience...all had a good laugh too. Cu Chi tunnels is a must visit.

Very informative tour. Our tour guide surely knows a lot about the history and culture of Saigon. He is also very funny which makes the tour very lively and interactive. He also recommended some good spots to visit and good food to eat while still on the city. It was a very good experience overall.
