It’s advertised as the Australian base but really not worth the money I paid. Guide kept giving me books to look at. Referring to a map. Tunnels were ok. Very disappointing to pay for a personal tour only to have him double book.

Our tour guide Chien was just lovely. He has a great wealth of
knowledge and he cares. His stories about the Vietnam war and especially the battle at
Lon Tan. It was really touching experience that Chien gave us all 2 roses one to place on each memorial. Thank you Chien.
Highly recommend.

Well worth the tour, some say there is not much to see so not worth it. But if you are passionate about our countries service it is a surreal experience to be among fields around where the battle was fought and pay respects at the memorials. Guide was amazing and very passionate about the battle with incredible amoumt of knowledge about our involvement and does not take a vietnamese bias.
