Highlights
- Cu Chi Tunnels - 7:30 am - We will start our day in Ho Chi Minh City as we embark on a journey to the renowned Cu Chi Tunnels. These tunnels have gained recognition as a heroic district due to their significant role in the resistance against the Vietnam War. Covering over 220km, this underground tunnel system holds legendary status and attracts numerous tourists, both local and international.
En route to Cu Chi from Ho Chi Minh City, we will traverse the picturesque countryside, where you may even catch a glimpse of ducks and buffalo taking respite in the river. It is difficult to fathom the extent of destruction and devastation that once plagued this area, caused by relentless bombing and mines when Cu Chi served as an “open target zone.”

The trip was excellent, though it got off to a rough start. - Our guide, Jun, was knowledgeable, friendly, and informative. We visited all the main sites, with some guided tours and some time to explore on our own. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip.

Exceptional Tour with a Knowledgeable Guide - Ben, our guide, truly made this experience worthwhile with his extensive knowledge of Ho Chi Minh City's history. Having a guide for these sites is incredibly valuable. The War Museum was tough to see and quite emotional for the kids, but it provided an important lesson about the realities of war. I would give this experience a ten out of ten and highly recommend it.

What an amazing trip! - I highly recommend exploring the tunnels with Andy as your guide. He provided fascinating insights into the history of the war and the local culture. Crawling through the 20-meter-long tunnels was an unforgettable experience, filled with wonderful discoveries.

An incredible day thanks to Jen! - We had such a fantastic day thanks to our incredible guide, Jen!!! She was so informative, sweet, kind, helpful, and everything in between. She provided amazing insight throughout the tunnels portion of the day then made all my coconut-loving dreams come true when we headed to the Mekong. Thank you, Jen, for one of my favorite experiences of our entire trip!

Such a blast! - This tour gave me such a great peek into Vietnam's history and culture, especially Ho Chi Minh City. It's perfect if you're short on time but eager to soak up as much as possible about the country and city. Danh, our guide, was top-notch! He's not just knowledgeable but also keeps things lively with cool stories and fun facts. Plus, he's got a knack for making even solo tours feel like a full-on group experience. Loved the personal touch, from snapping photos to our awesome chats. And can we talk about the comfy van and minimal walking? Just what I needed! Totally recommend this tour.

Worth spending the day doing this. - Had a great time with Kevin our tour group leader. Made the day very enjoyable with his in depth knowledge and humour! You should ask for him if possible.
Good experience if you’re looking to do two attractions in one day if you’re short on time.
Be prepared there will be lots of other tourists at the Cu Chi tunnels but that didn’t hinder the experience.
