( Departure time and meting point as requested)

Cu Chi Tunnels is a legendary underground system of over 220 km of tunnels, a must-see for both Vietnamese and foreign travelers who are interested in the history of the Vietnam War. The tunnels are now a historical structure of Vietnam and considered a heroic district for the role they played in the resistance to US forces during the Vietnam War, Cuchi tunnel tours.

The tunnels are located approximately 60km from Ho Chi Minh city. The tour departs at our office or from your hotel in a private vehicle. Enjoy the scenery along the way, as we pass the lush, endless rice fields and the ducks are water buffaloes swimming in the rivers. You might find it hard to imagine that once the area was almost completely destroyed by bombs and mines from the war, when Cu Chi was a “free target zone “.

Once we arrive, you will get a chance to walk through some of the tunnels, discover the hidden corners and imagine what life was like here for the resistance soldiers. If you like, try to cook with the smokeless stoves used by Vietnamese soldiers to cook during the war. You can even try foods which the soldiers lived on. If you’re feeling brave, or curious, you can even try your hand at shooting at AK-47, one of the guns used during the war.

Head back to the city ,the tour finishes at your hotel.

Ich empfehle die Tour ausschließlich wegen des Guide , Tuian. Er ist ein 72 jährigem ARVN Veteran und hat uns an seiner Erfahrungen aus der Zeit lebhaft teilhaben lassen. Das war wirklich außergewöhnlich und super interessant.
Die Tour an sich ist ziemlich touristisch aber ok.

Mind blowing experience
TUAN! Mate, you were an unreal tour guide. Your personal experiences and stories were incredible to hear, as well as your sense of humour, made the tour unforgettable.
The tunnel systems and the clever ways the VC’s used to survive underground was baffling. Definitely a bucket list activity.

Most amazing trip, and Tuan was incredible!
I couldn’t recommend this trip more. Seeing the Cu Chi tunnels is amazing, but to be shown them by a veteran officer was one of the most interesting and incredible experiences we have ever had. Tuan was a great guide; hearing his personal stories was emotional but insightful and I felt honoured to have been on his tour. He was hilarious and interesting and I can’t thank him enough for an amazing day!

BaoY with Vietnam Adventure was a great experience
BaoY was such an amazing tour guide! She was friendly and personable but also knowledgeable about the tunnels. The tour was well organized and was an easy process from start to finish. My tour guide definitely made it memorable though! BaoY was so much fun and even after being up for 16 hours she got me to do some karaoke on the bus ride back. I tried to book her again for another tour through Vietnam Adventure but unfortunately the timing of my trip didn’t work out 🙁 highly recommend my guide and the company

Cu Chi tunnels with a real vet
I had the pleasure and great privalge of having a tour of the Cu Chi tunnels by the great and powerful Tuan. The man is a war vet and one of the few surviving Vietnam vets, who was on the south Vietnam army side and still lives to be able to tell his story. His perspective on the war is one of a kind. His tale of surviving brutal VC attacks is heart wrenching and captivating. His physical capabilities as a 72 year old man are baffling. I highly recommend having a tour with him if you would like to get a 1st hand account from a real vet that survived and not some random tour guide with only a theoretical knowledge at best.

Thanks again sir. It was a pleasure.

Tour with Mr. Tuan
We had an amazing tour with Mr. Tuan!
He explained everything very clearly and with full of details. He not only knows the history but he lived the war.
He is an incredible person and it’s really worth to have a tour with him!

Highly recommended!
The tour was very great! Our guide, Mr. Tuan, was really kind and explained in details and passion all the landmarks. The key point is that he was one of the soldiers during the war, so he could add plenty of interesting stories that he himself experienced.

I highly recommend the tour!

Our guide Van gave us such an interesting tour with her fluent English. Not only could we know the history, but also we could experience the atmosphere of the past. I’m gonna do this again in the future with my kids!
