"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.

A fantastic trip. Kain was incredibly knowledgeable and very informative, giving us a great history of the conflict on the way there, then talking us through all of the exhibits, again with great knowledge and a very nice manner. A brilliant experience, not to be missed - we learned a lot and had a brilliant time! Kain is fantastic. :)

Private tour with Betty to Cu Chi Tunnels. Betty has so much knowledge not just about the Vietnam War but about the whole of Vietnam and neighbouring countries. Betty's English was amazing too. We did the private tour as a couple, driver and Betty. This meant we could stay for as long as we wanted. There were huge bus tours that had so many people on them that would be there all day. With the heat and crowds we were so happy we booked a private tour. Highly recommended.

Our guide Jen was excellent. We were given a full history lesson which made the journey to the tunnels more interesting as we had very little prior knowledge of the Vietnam war. The Cu Chi tunnels were fascinating. There is so much to see, (wear suitable clothing if you intend to go down the tunnels as it is dirty). We also had a stop at the handicapped “craft village” where those affected by agent orange” live and work. We bought some art pieces that were beautifully crafted. It was such an uplifting experience. This was definitely an unforgettable trip that we would highly recommend. Booking the private tour is the best choice as you can book a time to suit you and journey time is so much quicker. Added bonus is that you have a personal guide whose knowledge is first class, answering all our questions.
