Additional Information

Ho Chi Minh City, once upon a time referred to as the Diamond of the Far East, exceeded the opulence of cities like Hongkong or Bangkok. Today, it stands as Vietnam’s most populous city.

Marked by its rapid urban lifestyle, Ho Chi Minh city is a melting pot of various elements, embodied in the contrast between street vendors offering fresh greens and fruits and high-fashion western bars and boutiques.

Our one-day tour offers a peek into the city’s tumultuous history and its enchanting diversity. The itinerary includes visits to key attractions such as:

  • The Reunification Palace
  • War Remnants Museum
  • Notre Dame Cathedral
  • Central Post Office
  • Jade Emperor Pagoda

Enjoy a meal in one of the city’s restaurants. From there, we head to the Cu Chi tunnels. On arrival, a brief video about the construction of these tunnels is shown. Subsequently, we will take our time to explore the labyrinth of tunnels, featuring endless trap doors, storage units, arms factories, field hospitals, command centers, and kitchens.

  • Children must be accompanied by an adult
  • Confirmation will be received at time of booking

Great day of history of Southern Vietnam - The city portion of the tour was great, a lot of history ranging from the French Indochina period through the multiple wars into the 1970's. Cu Chi Tunnels portion was also fantastic learning the survival techniques and creativity of guerilla warfare. Son was a fantastic guide with reasonably good English. It is a long day however, left at 7:30 am and got back at 7:30 pm.

Chi chi Tunnel with Jacky - The wonderful History tour, we took yesterday, with Kim Travels and our guide was Jacky. We were lucky to have him as our guide as he explained us every thing with that much enthusiasm as we were there during the gorilla war. His Grand parents along with here mother ( when she was kid) spend years in the tunnels so you could experience the “efforts for freedom” of the people that time, through his voice.. Must visit places in Ho Chi Minh City..

Tunnel Tour - A good experience to see the physicality of the tunnels themselves, but maybe would’ve liked a more cohesive commentary on how the tunnels were made, as well as how they were planned etc. Additionally, on the way to the tunnels, we stopped for a somewhat touristy trap demonstration and gift shop… but still, Simon was a very humorous and personable host and is definitely a big reason the tour was so enjoyable.
