Highlights
  • Cu Chi Tunnels - Be collected from your accommodation then head to Cu Chi. Along the way, watch as the frantic city scenery transitions into a more peaceful rural setting. See the rice paddy farms, quaint roadside vendors, and increasingly lush greenery.

Once you arrive, begin with a tour of the Cu Chi Tunnels, an underground network of pathways, hideouts, sleeping quarters, meeting rooms, hospitals, and Hoang Cam Stove. These narrow tunnels provide barely enough space for a single person to crawl their way through, though some are now wider to accommodate visitors. Learn that the mere 10 to 13 feet (3 to 4 meter) thick level of upper soil can support the bearing weight of a 55 ton (50 metric ton) tank and the explosive damage of bombs.

  • Cu Chi Tunnels - Watch an insightful film about the wartime experience before further exploring the tunnel’s trap doors and underground quarters. Then make a visit to huge bomb craters left from the war, the Garment-factory Ammunition and Souvenir Shops, and the Museum of Self-made Weapons. Get the exhilarating opportunity to fire an M-15, AK-47, and a carbine rifle at the National Defense Sports Shooting Range for a true wartime experience ( extra for shooting gun).

Finally, savor local tapioca before the comfortable ride back to Ho Chi Minh City. Head to a local foot massage parlor to treat your feet after a long day of walking in the Cu Chi Tunnels. After the massage, be taken back to your accommodation.

Small group luxury tunnel tour with lunch - We were picked up in a luxury bus from our hotel, the small group of 7 guests made it easy to get around the various tunnel experiences. Beo was our guide he spoke good English with a sense of humour. It was a fantastic lunch and cool beer on the return trip was very welcome. I did the tunnels even though I thought I would sit out I'm glad I did it was tight but a good experience. The tunnels had some lighting a torch is handy and don't wear white clothes.

Great guide, and an amazing place - Hi, one of the best tours we've had in vietnam. Our guide Giau (it means rich, lol) was really informative, and kept making sure we were OK. At the actual tunnels she was great, really taking time to explain each stage. The tunnels area is really worth visiting, a real eye opener. I'd also suggest the firing range, as not many opportunities to fire these types of guns safely
