This tour is perfect for those who are interested in the history of the Vietnam War or are looking for a day trip not too far away from Ho Chi Minh city. The tour takes you to two important tourist sites: Cu Chi Tunnels and the Mekong Delta.
Bus and tour guide pick you up at An Travel office (address: 165 Pham Ngu Lao) and depart for Cu Chi Tunnels, 70 km west of Ho Chi Minh City. This system was dug by the National Front for the Liberation of South Vietnam during the Indochina War and Vietnam War. The tunnel system includes an infirmary, many rooms, a kitchen, a storage room, a working room, and an underground tunnel system.
The tunnel system is about 200 km long and has ventilation systems at bush locations. The tunnel was built on land known as "steel land", located at the end of the Ho Chi Minh Trail. During the 1968 Tet Offensive, the National Front for the Liberation of South Vietnam used this tunnel system to attack Saigon.
When visiting the Cu Chi tunnels, you will learn how ancient Vietnamese guerrillas built, lived and fought in the tunnels, and will be able to watch valuable documentary footage about the war and how soldiers fought in the tunnels. The Vietnamese people have defeated modern weapons only with national will.
Witness with your own eyes primitive homemade weapons, bamboo traps..., crawl in the tunnels, and watch local people make rice paper and rice wine.
In addition, you also have the opportunity to shoot guns at the shooting range in Tunnels.
