“The Best Tour Guide Ever!”
My family took the Da Nang City tour with Tony. I booked with Tony because of his 5 star reviews. My family was astonished to have Tony as our guide. He spoke fluent english, with a ver light accent, which we could clearly understand. He told us about everything we saw and added the history behind it! He was such an awesome guide! He recommended restaurants to go to for the remaining time in DaNang, took pictures with us. Provided water on the long tours. Answered all of our questions, and stayed with us the whole time! He was extremely patient as we roamed she shopping area. We were pleased with him and his driver. There were only 8 of us and we had a 15 seat van! If you want a good experience in Da Nang or Hoi An he is the person to take you and you won’t regret it!

“Personalized tour to find military battlefields”
Tony was an extremely professional, responsive, and helpful guide. I reached out requesting his help to find a little known location of a battle that occurred in 1965. There is very little documentation available on the exact location of the battle so we had very little to work from. Still, Tony took what I had and contacted others to help narrow down the location we were seeking. Tony was persistent, and committed to finding the location - even hiking through mud and knee hide water to compare what he saw to an old photo I had. In the end, we didn’t find the exact location, but through Tony, I was still able to see a few locations where battles had taken place, meet locals in the villages, and learn a bit more about Vietnam. Also of note, I was traveling alone and felt very safe with Tony at all times.
