About Tour Guide Binh T.
It's great to meet you, I'm Binh
I founded a local guide team with well-trained, knowledgeable, passionate co-hosts Emmie, Hani, Lily, Urri, Den, Bob, Daniel, and others
I first discovered Saigon while studying at University after leaving our hometown in rural Vietnam. I immediately became fascinated by the city's unique blend of culture, history, and delicious cuisine. My education focused on tourism. I finally decided it was time to bring my custom-tailored experiences to my guests.
Our interest is that we like to show people around our city and share our perspectives and stories. We know the hidden gems and have a very deep passion and love for our city, which we like to share.
Great experiences for our guests are never accomplished by one person but by a team. Thanks for our team’s dedication to providing exceptional hospitality.
We are looking forward to connecting with you more!!
Best regards,
Ben

The location of the tunnels was of significant strategic importance: they are at the end of the infamous Ho Chi Minh Trail, and within striking distance of the southern Vietnam capital. Initial construction started in 1948 when the Viet Minh required somewhere to hide from French air attacks, and by 1965, the tunnel complex was estimated to consist of 200 km of tunnels. It included, hospitals, schools, meeting rooms, kitchens, and sleeping quarters.
