    A Memorable and Moving Experience

    Had a fantastic experience on a private tour to Bien Hoa with our guide, Michael. Booked the Long Tan / Nui Dat tour as it was the only one that mentioned the former American airbase at Bien Hoa in the description. My father was stationed there during the war and I was interested in seeing the area. Can’t comment on Long Tran / Nui Dat, as we only went to Bien Hoa by choice. And I wouldn’t recommend a visit to the Bien Hoa base unless you have a personal reason. Given it’s now a Vietnamese Airforce training facility, there’s no access and really nothing at all to see. We knew that beforehand, yet it was still a hugely memorable and moving experience, thanks to our excellent guide, Michael, and our driver, who easily accommodated our custom itinerary and worked to deliver a great experience for us. I’m very grateful to them both. Michael is a fluent English speaker and very experienced guide. He is extremely knowledgeable about Vietnamese history, culture, the area, and the war. He’s guided many vets over the years. He shared his own personal stories of the war’s aftermath, and had a good sense of humor. A highlight of the experience was Michael stopping at a coffee spot just outside the base’s gate, where he engaged the owner, translated for us, and shared some local intel. It was a lovely moment. I certainly recommend Michael and the tour company for any sort of private, expertly guided experience you’re interested in.

    Perfect guide to take me to pay my respects

    Thank you Sgt Tony Dao. Your first hand knowledge of the Núi Đất Australian Military Base and the topography of Long Tan and surrounding areas cannot be undervalued. To be able to pay my respects to those who lost their lives at Long Tan and be shown around the surrounding area with you was an honour. Tony did not rush the tour and took me to various places of interest in the area.

    Retrace the Foot Steps of AUS & NZ Troops

    An experience for anyone who has a keen interest in Australian Military history of the Vietnam War. The Long Tan memorial site is definatley worth visiting to pay your respects to the fallen, and the Long Phouc Tunnels were worth a look. The other areas of Nui Dat have returned back to its natural environment, with the exception of the abandoned hospital, only reminants of the sites remain.

    Great experience

    Toni is a great tour guide. We learned so much about his time with the Australian forces. The sites we were able to view were quite moving.

    Excellent experience

    Tony is a real character, and wove his own story into the day which made this a special experience. Here’s to you, Sgt Tony. Time to reflect on our own at Long Tan was very important and we appreciated the space Tony gave us to do this.

    Private Long Tan Tour and Nui Dat Battle Field: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ho Chi Minh City.

    How much does Private Long Tan Tour and Nui Dat Battle Field cost?

    +

    Prices start at $119 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Ho Chi Minh City usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Private Long Tan Tour and Nui Dat Battle Field take?

    +

    Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Ho Chi Minh City is not rushed.

    Is Private Long Tan Tour and Nui Dat Battle Field worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 51 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 19 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Ho Chi Minh City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private Long Tan Tour and Nui Dat Battle Field?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Private Long Tan Tour and Nui Dat Battle Field suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Long Tan Tour and Nui Dat Battle Field?

    +

    Around 7 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Ho Chi Minh City can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Ho Chi Minh City and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Long Tan Tour and Nui Dat Battle Field start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Ho Chi Minh City within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Ho Chi Minh City?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Ho Chi Minh City experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Adventure Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta Tour From HCM, Cu Chi Tunnels Small-Group Tour: Vietnam War Underground Network, Cu Chi underground tour - Learn Vietnam war with others. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Ho Chi Minh City?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Ho Chi Minh City?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
