Program details

Welcome to Ho Chi Minh, a vibrant and bustling metropolis that offers tourists an incredible experience of wartime history. One of the most fascinating and historic remnants of the war is the Cu Chi tunnels. If you're interested in learning more about this iconic place and exploring its hidden secrets, why not join our half-day tour with a war veteran as your guide?



We'll start by picking you up from your accommodations before heading to the Ben Dinh tunnel entrance. This entrance played a significant role during the 1968 Tet Offensive by the Vietnamese Congress. Today, you'll find replicas of booby traps, sleeping quarters, and barracks, giving you a glimpse of the realities of war.



We'll be joined by a knowledgeable war veteran who will guide us through the Cu Chi Tunnels. These tunnels were dug by the Vietnamese as a means of protecting themselves from the French offense during the war. The tunnels form a vast network of underground passages, not only used as a hiding place but also for communication with other soldiers.



As we explore the labyrinth of tunnels, our guide will provide us with detailed stories and explanations of the history and importance of this site. After the tour, we'll head to the firing range, where you'll have the opportunity to fire a M16 or AK-47, an unforgettable experience!



Finally, we'll head back to Ho Chi Minh and drop you off at your accommodations, bringing an end to a day filled with history, culture, and adventure. Choose to go in the morning or the afternoon, and let us take you on a journey through time. Don't miss out on this unique and unforgettable experience!
