Cu Chi Underground Tunnels: Explore Vietnam's Legendary War History
Cu Chi, a heroic district located just 60km from Ho Chi Minh City, is famous for its role during the American War in Vietnam. The district's 220km network of underground tunnels is a testament to the fierce fighting that took place in the area, and a must-visit destination for both domestic and international travelers.
Our Cu Chi tour departs from the meeting point at 8:00 AM, taking visitors on a 1.5-hour drive to the tunnels. Upon arrival, our knowledgeable tour guide will provide an overview introduction to Cu Chi and its legendary history.
The tour includes a documentary film about the tunnels, explaining their history and the brutal nature of the war in the area. Visitors will then be guided through the tunnels system, including the weapon factory, hospitals, and kitchens, and have the opportunity to crawl through some of the tunnels themselves.
After the tour, visitors can sample delicious manioc, the main food for guerilla warriors during the war, and even try their hand at firing off an AK47, MK16, or machine gun at the nearby shooting range.
The tour concludes with a return trip to Ho Chi Minh City, leaving visitors with a newfound appreciation for the courage and tenacity of the Vietnamese people during one of the most difficult periods in their history.
