Join us as we embark on a tour to learn the secrets of the Vietnam War by visiting the Cu Chi Tunnels, emblematic of one of the key conflicts of the mid-20th century.

Cu Chi Tunnels Tour Itinerary

Having picked you up from your accommodation in Ho Chi Minh City, we'll head to the famous Cu Chi Tunnels, about an hour's drive away.

What strategies did the Vietcong use during the war in Vietnam? Where did they hide from US soldiers? How did they communicate messages and send supplies? The answers to many of these questions are found at Cu Chi, in the enormous network of underground passageways that lies not just around Ho Chi Minh but under much of the country.

As you explore the tunnels, you'll see terrifying traps used to capture the enemy. They've been deactivated now, but... we still wouldn't like to get too close! Next to the entrance to the tunnels, there's a further exhibit of equipment left over from the war, including an old tank.

After experiencing this unforgettable trip through history, you'll be returned to your hotel in Ho Chi Minh City.

Shooting Practice

For the most daring among you, there is the opportunity to shoot real ammunition using one of the AK 47s that the Viet Cong used, or an M16 rifle used by the Americans.

When we leave the tunnels, we'll reach the trenches where you can enjoy your target practice experience (not included: bullets are approximately 2.30EUR each).

Hotel Pickup

This tour only includes pickup from hotels in the central area of District 1 in Ho Chi Minh City (Ben Thanh, Nguyen Thai Binh, and Pham Ngu Lao).
If your accommodation is located in another part of the city, please make your way to the following meeting point at the designated time: 123 Ly Tu Trong Street, Ben Thanh Ward, District 1.

VIP Option

For a truly enhanced experience, upgrade to the VIP tour! You'll be picked up in a luxurious 5-star vehicle and enjoy a delicious traditional Vietnamese lunch. This seven-and-a-half-hour tour ensures an intimate experience with no more than nine guests.

This option also includes hotel pickup from Districts 1, 3, and 4. If your accommodation is outside these areas, please meet us at 123 Lý Tự Trọng Street at the designated time.

Schedules

Depending on the option you choose, the tour departure time will be as follows:

Cu Chi Tunnels tour: 7:45 am or 12:15 pm
VIP tour to Cu Chi Tunnels: 8 am

Complete your experience

Make the most of your time in Ho Chi Minh City, by combining this tour of the Cu Chi Tunnels with a trip to the Mekong Delta. You'll visit two of Vietnam's most popular tourist attractions in one day, and what's more, you'll save money booking them together.
