What To Expect
Cu Chi Tunnels
We’ll pick you up at your Ho Chi Minh City hotel in the early morning, and you’ll travel with your English-speaking guide to the Cu Chi tunnels. The drive is around 60 km. At Cu Chi, you’ll be shown a documentary film about the tunnels and learn how the locals made bamboo traps, rice paper, and rice wine. You’ll then have the opportunity to explore the web of underground tunnels dug by Vietnamese resistance fighters.
My Tho
After exploring the tunnels, we’ll drive to My Tho. This is one of the provinces that comprise the Mekong Delta area. We’ll cruise by boat along the upper Mekong through a region with islands named after 4 animals that appear in Buddhist writings – Dragon, Unicorn, Phoenix, and Turtle. On this part of the tour, you’ll observe some of the activities of regional Vietnamese daily life and appreciate how life here depends on the River. We’ll then take you on a trip by rowboat along the small waterways. You’ll see the agricultural richness of the delta region in its fruit orchards, coconut groves, and bee-keeping farms. We’ll stop so you can enjoy honey tea, seasonal fruit, fresh coconut candy, and southern Vietnamese folk music. At the end of our tour, we’ll drive back to Ho Chi Minh City and drop you off at your hotel at around 18:00.

5.00I had so much fun on my one day layover in Vietnam. We were picked up on time for our tour. We had a wonderful day and experience with our guide Bruno who was so animated and made the tour special making sure we were happy and had fun. Bruno also made sure we got our ride back to our hotel and didn't leave until he knew we got in the car safely. Thank you for a wonderful day of history and culture.

5.00We had such a wonderful time on this tour, all thanks to Max who was an exceptional guide! Not only did we learn a lot about the tunnels, but we certainly gained better insight on Vietnam’s History and Vietnamese culture. Very informative, interesting and enjoyable. Everything was seamlessly planned, on time and well organised. Spoilt with a lovely lunch before vaiting the Mekong Delta, it was definitely a great highlight of our stay in Ho Chi Minh City. Highly recommend.
Max is a legend
