"Strategies to Avoid the Crowds at Cu Chi Tunnels"
- We recommend starting early.
- The Cu Chi Tunnels attract visitors daily, becoming particularly congested on weekends and Vietnamese holidays. It's not uncommon to find long lines at every stop, making for a packed experience on any given day.
- A half-day usually suffices. Aim to reach the tunnels either before 8:30 AM or around 2:30 PM. By this time, the morning queues have dwindled, and the afternoon temperature is more pleasant.

Very enjoyable 2 hour drive out of Ho Chi Minh to the tunnels with our gracious guide, Ni including a very special stop at lacquer art factory along the way because it’s staffed by the disabled. The 90 minute tunnel tour was an amazing example of dedication, ingenuity, and humbling commitment to a cause. Make sure you’re in good shape if you choose to go down 4-5 meters and crawl through a tunnel, however. They’re dark, dirty, very hot, and made for people weighing less than 100 lbs. You better be in great shape! Enjoyable way to spend the day and a great history lesson.

I can not recommend this tour enough. The whole trip was amazing, especially as we had the most fantastic guide TINY. She was so friendly, professional, engaging, and knowledgeable. The information she provided helped us to understand exactly how the Vietnamese soldiers dug and lived in the Cu Chi Tunnels. We also learned all about the recycling of American bombs, shells, tyres, etc. And, their ingenious way of using every bit of wasted material for use in their battles. We also got to experience going inside one of the tunnels, and even at only five feet tall, I still had to crouch right down! If possible request Tiny, you will not be disappointed.
