Our guide, “Hillbilly Jack,” was exceptional. His knowledge of the Battle of Long Tan and Vietnam War history in general was fantastic, and he told the story with real passion and detail. Being a private tour meant we could ask as many questions as we liked and really take our time at each stop. The itinerary covered multiple locations relevant to the battle, and each one added another layer to the story. Really well planned and paced. The vehicle was clean and well maintained, and our driver was professional throughout - made for a comfortable, relaxed day. Given it included private transport, an expert guide, and lunch, the price was very reasonable - excellent value for what you get. If you’re after a well-run, informative tour covering Aussie/Vietnam War history, this one is a must. Highly recommend!

Through my good mate we booked a tour to Long Tan and Binh Ba with Jack. Jack is one of the funniest blokes I have met and very knowledgeable on subjects such as history, politics and culture. Throughout the day, Jack kept us entertained and informed on the tour whilst remaining supremely professional. The driver was an exceptional part of the day as well, thank you! Jack, thank you for lunch and all the effort you put in to make our day informative and unforgettable. Resolute! Brad 🇦🇺

Hillbilly Jack was a really great guide, from the moment i booked he made contact with me to arrange a smooth pickup. His presentation of information was exceptional and really painted a picture to start the tour. Jack was very flexible and at no time did we feel we were rushed or felt like we were missing out on something. Jack was very personable and proffesional which added to the experience, i felt like i had a friend showing me around instead of a tour guide leading me around. The vehicle and driver were both clean and safe as well as comfortable. Thanks Jack i had a blast.
