Highlights
  • Cu Chi Tunnels - We’ll pick you up at your Ho Chi Minh City hotel in the early morning, and you’ll travel with your English-speaking guide to the Cu Chi tunnels. The drive is around 60 km.

At Cu Chi, you’ll be shown a documentary film about the tunnels and learn how the locals made bamboo traps, rice paper, and rice wine. You’ll then have the opportunity to explore the web of underground tunnels dug by Vietnamese resistance fighters.

  • My Tho - After exploring the tunnels, we’ll drive to My Tho. This is one of the provinces that comprise the Mekong Delta area. We’ll cruise by boat along the upper Mekong through a region with islands named after 4 animals that appear in Buddhist writings

We’ll then take you on a trip by rowboat along the small waterways. You’ll see the agricultural richness of the delta region in its fruit orchards, coconut groves, and bee-keeping farms. We’ll stop so you can enjoy honey tea, seasonal fruit, fresh coconut candy, and southern Vietnamese folk music.

At the end of our tour, we’ll drive back to Ho Chi Minh City and drop you off at your hotel at around 18:00.

Cu Chi tunnel and Mekong day toir - Great trip to get an intro to get a glimpse of what war was like for many Vietnamese people, brought to life by the enthusiastic and knowledgeable tour guide Tu. Lunch at the tunnels was tasty and then time for a snooze while driving to the Mekong delta. A walk through the bush with fresh fruit stop and a paddle through the waterways with glimpses of how the islanders live. Long day, but well worth it! Thanks Tu for making it a great day

Excellent day trip - As expected the tour guide arrived exactly on time to pick us up. Mr Tu our guide was so welcoming and friendly from the get go. He made our long journey to the 2 venues amusing with so much information about Vietnam. He is gave us all the information for the upcoming sites and made sure everyone was comfortable during the entire trip. Highly recommend Mr Tu and his associates for the cu tunnels and Mekong delta day trip.

Fun day! - We did our tour with Kevin and had an amazing day! He was very knowledgeable and fun. I learnt so much more about Vietnamese history and culture :) The drive was smooth and we were very well hydrated throughout. During the tour, we were given several opportunities purchase the local products and to "tip" but Kevin didn't make us feel uncomfortable or coerced at all which I appreciated so much. But I do recommend bringing some smaller notes just in case. Overall highly recommend!

Cu Chi Tunnels & Mekong River - Great trip. Great guide. Our tour guide Mai was excellent, knowledgeable, and fun. Speaks good English. Learned a lot about Vietnam’s history from Mai. The Cu Chi Tunnels were an eye-opener. It was indeed a worthwhile trip.

Memorable trip to mekong delta and chu chi tunnels - Went to Chuchi tunnel and mekong delta with family including elderly parents. Our tour guide Colbie was super freindly and cheerful, my parents loved her!! She was tirelessly answering every question about the history of Vietnam to places to visit in Ho chi minh. She helped with clicking pictures and made sure we were served vegetarian food. The trip was very comfortable and we would definitely recommend it to our friends!!!

Great tour! - This was a really cool tour! Our guide Tu was lovely and so informative, but I especially loved how he encouraged us to be respectful at the Cu Chi tunnels site. The lunch was delicious (there were vegan options for me which I was very grateful for) and the fruit was so fresh. It’s a long day but so worth it.

Fun and informative - Cobi was really friendly and took lots of care of my friend group when we went to the cu chi tunnel and Mekong delta tour! She was very personal, took the time to get to know us and also made sure the we had lots of fun and was well informed of how the beauty of Ho Chi Minh! Would definitely recommend her and the driver (who was really friendly too! But sorry for forgetting his name) for taking care of us and making sure we are safe!
