Should not be missed !
My son and I booked for a private tour. Although the site is not very far but traffic conditions are such that it takes time. Helen was with us and was very knowledgeable about the cu chi history and guided us very well. We also stopped e route to see how survivors of Agent orange are doing beautiful handicrafts for their livelihood. On our way back Helen also sang a lovely song for us. The cu chi leaves you amazed at how the perseverance of a nation and its citizens brought down a super power by bringing the battle to their area of strength. Tough people with a strong sense of patriotism and strategic thinking.
