Cu Chi Tunnels
Cu Chi Tunnels Discover one of Vietnam’s most remarkable historical landmarks, an extensive underground network used during the Vietnam War. This complex system once functioned as living quarters, supply routes, hospitals, and command centers. During your visit, you’ll watch an introductory documentary before exploring the site with your guide. See hidden trapdoors, camouflaged entrances, and various wartime structures that demonstrate the ingenuity and resilience of local soldiers. For a more immersive experience, you can choose to crawl through sections of the tunnels and gain a firsthand understanding of the conditions underground. You’ll also have the opportunity to taste cassava and tea, a staple food during the war period.

Amazing tour! ;)
It was very fun! The tour guide was extremely nice and sometimes joked with us during the trip! He told us interesting information about the place and had fun in the tunnels. Besides that, The sights were spectacular and very intriguing, showing very clearly the Vietnamese’s soldiers environment during the war. Also, it’s an incredible place for people who are interested in history, respectively the ones who are intrigued in war topics, being able to see (and shoot) guns, see heavy artillery and weapons used into the war, as well as being able to see their outfits on the mannequins on display. Overall, It’s a good place for history enthusiasts and for tourists who want to learn more about the country and its chronology.

Well worth it
I was worried this would be too short but with the busyness and heat 2 hrs was fine, especially with teenagers. We all enjoyed it. David’s talk on the trip there was very interesting and informative. Great having a smaller group and aircon

Must see
David was a fantastic tour guide, very informative & engaging, gave the group a great history of Vietnam from late 19th century under French control & up to late 20th century. The transport was really comfortable & well air-conditioned. Total time for tour & travel was around 6 hours, with just over 2 hours for the tour itself. Cost was very reasonable, around £12.50 per person.

Cu Chi Tunnels Half-Day Tour
Awesome and very knowledgeable tour guide Poh. Came out learning a lot more about the history of the Vietnam War. I suggest if you’re in Ho Chi Minh to make this trip.
