Spend your day exploring the legendary Cu Chi tunnel and the bustling Ho Chi Minh City in itself, through the story of Vietnamese reliance on underground hideouts during the struggle for independence.
Pick up at your hotel/residence on request. The trip to Cu Chi will take approximately one and a half hours driving.
Upon arrival, before exploring the tunnels, you will have a short introduction followed by an introductory video about how the tunnels were constructed and how the people survived in the harsh conditions of wartime. Then, spend your time exploring the remaining area and tunnel systems, which include the specially constructed living areas with kitchens, bedrooms side by side with other martial facilities like storage, weapons factories, field hospitals, and command centers helping whoever lives inside the tunnels meet their basic needs. Besides, there are also many hidden trap doors and dangerous traps within the maze-like tunnels for security purposes during the war. Afterward, special tea and cassava (guerrilla’s food during the war) will be served.
Break time for relaxation or time for those who want to try the real shooting gun. Lunch en route.
Return to Saigon. Visit the War Remnants Museum, which preserves the heroic remnants of the Vietnamese people in the struggle against the invading forces. Tour finishes at the Secret Cellar, where you can find a historical relic on the Saigon commandos’ feat of battle. Nearly three tons of weapons were kept in the cellar by the Saigon Commandos to attack the Presidential Palace during the Tet Offensive in 1968. It is one among many untold valuable exhibits that manifest the brilliant feats of the Vietnamese people and army in their fight for national reunification, which became true on April 30, 1975.
Back to the hotel. End trip.
Optional: treat yourself after a long day tour within 2 hours to admire the beautiful sunset on the Saigon Cruise and taste Vietnamese food can be arranged on request.
