Day 01
Explore the Cu Chi Tunnels from Saigon
- Pick-up at your hotel. From Saigon, we will head northwest to the Cu Chi Tunnels, one of the few monuments remaining from the Vietnam War. Beneath the ground lies a 200 km tunnel network, dug by hand and once inhabited by Vietnamese guerrilla forces. It stretches from near the Cambodian border to the edge of Saigon, even covering an area that was once a US airbase.
- We can listen to our guide's introduction to the traces, exhibits, and old weapons here, or crawl several dozen meters inside the tunnel to get a real feeling of what the war was like in this land.
- Gradually, we will find out why Cu Chi is a symbol of Vietnamese ingenuity, loyalty, hard work, and determination. Return to Saigon in the late afternoon.
