Vietnam TOURS

PROGRAM DETAILS SHARED TOUR (NON PRIVATE)

Depart from your hotel at 08:00 in the morning then transfer to the pier in the heart of the city. Embark the speedboat and cruise along the Saigon River to Cuchi Tunnels, You’ll pass the cityscape and head through more rural sceneries as you travel northwest to Cu Chi. Upon arrival commence a historical tour with a visit to Cuchi Tunnels, located 70km northwest of Ho Chi Minh City, built and used by the Viet Cong during both the French and American wars. It took 25 years to construct this tunnel and it stands today as a symbol of struggle of the Vietnamese people. This Tunnel consists of more than 200km of underground tunnels, many branches connecting to underground hideouts, shelters, and entrances to other tunnels and home to more than 16,000 communist guerillas and sympathizers during the war. The underground network provided sleeping quarters, meeting rooms, hospitals, and other social rooms. Visiting the Cu Chi Tunnels provides a better understanding of the prolonged resistance war and also of the persistent and clever character of the Vietnamese. After lunch at restaurant riverside, we head off Saigon by van and visit some local place en route including the cricket farm to taste the unusual local specialty and a local rice papers-making house, organic vegetable farm. We end the journey and drop you off the hotel at 15:00.
