"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. :)
