HCM - Cu Chi Tunnel - HCM City Tour

Day 1 : Cu Chi tunnel - Reunification Hall

After your breakfast, our driver (WITH GUIDE) will pick you up at your hotel and take you to Cu Chi. (Our Cu Chi Tunnels tour will last for 5 hours: 1,5 hours driving to the tunnel – 2 hours of visiting – 1,5 driving back to city.)

Before exploring the tunnels, you will watch an introductory video about how the tunnels were made and how Vietnamese people survived in the harsh conditions of the wartime.

When arriving at Cu Chi Tunnels, you will experience lots of interesting activities, including:

Experience the thrill of crawling down the tunnels
Visit underground bunkers
See the collection of guns and traps, bomb crater
See Hoang Cam smokeless kitchen and understand how the VC soldier hide their cooking smoke
Firing range (Bullets fee is not included)
Try tapioca (the most common food the VC ate throughout the war)

In the afternoon, after you done exploring, the driver will take you to HCM city and take you on the city tour.

Start with a visit to the city’s most iconic building: Reunification Hall. Formerly called the Presidential Palace, images of the building were seen around the world on 30 April 1975 when tanks stormed the gates as Saigon fell to the North Vietnamese. Hear the echoes of time while walking through this historic downtown site.

Then take a stroll to Ho Chi Minh City’s colonial quarter, walking past scenes of everyday life on the way. Admire the beautiful architecture of the Opera House, City Hall, the old Saigon Post Office, hear about the glory days of French Indochina and how that era continues to influence aspects of modern Vietnamese culture.

When finish, back to your hotel. The rest of the day is free at your leisure.
