The Cu Chi Tunnels were fascinating to see and learn about, especially the history behind them. It was a bit claustrophobic inside the tunnels but the experience was worth it.
The Mekong Delta was a beautiful sight to behold. The boat ride was relaxing and we got to see the floating markets and how the locals live in the area. The fresh fruit we sampled was delicious and the scenery was breathtaking.
Ninh Thuan Province was a great addition to the tour. It was a bit off the beaten path but offered stunning views of the countryside and coastline. Less
