This was our second personal tour with Thien after spending a fantastic day with her yesterday at Mekong Delta.
Today Thien started the day with a trip to the oldest local coffee shop, even though this was not part of the tour where we enjoyed the best coffee and were shown how they make it in clay pots over a wood burner stove. Again it was clear that Thien is highly regarded by the locals who happily open up their homes and businesses willingly to give us the tourist a beautiful experience.
The drive out to the tunnels was so engaging with Thien sharing many stories about her town, it’s obvious she loves it and she was super willing to answer all our questions.
Thien took us to a less touristy part of the Cu Chi tunnels, it was a bit further to drive but well worth it to avoid the big crowds.
Cannot recommend this tour highly enough and you MUST go with Thien, she’s amazing
