Cu Chi Tunnels

After being picked up, you will begin your journey to the west of the city, toward Cu Chi (60km - 1,5 hours). Upon arrival, watch a documentary about the Vietnam War. We then discover specially built living areas with kitchens, bedrooms, storage, weapons factories, field hospitals, and command centers to assist whoever lives inside the Cu Chi tunnels in meeting their basic needs while listening to your guide's stories about the history of this land. Many hidden behind trap doors and dangerous traps within the maze-like tunnels will be revealed, and we will learn more about the handmade weapons and traps used during the War. Seeing huge bomb craters and the mere 10-13 feet thick level of upper soil can support the bearing weight of a 55-ton tank and the explosive damage of bombs left from the war. Highlight of the trip is to crawl and experience the underground town of Cu Chi Tunnels. The best part of the trip is crawling into it to experience what it was like.

  • Great tour, but no hotel pickup

    This was a wonderful tour, our tour guide, Josh, was excellent! His English skills were perfect! He was able to provide a lot of historic information that was very helpful when touring the tunnels! He was also very friendly and welcoming. Be aware that this tour doesn't pick up at every hotel, although advertised that it does. We received confirmation stating hotel pickup at 7:30am. At 6:45am, the morning of the tour, we received a WhatsApp message telling us hotel pickup was not available for us, although we were less than 1 mile from city center. We were told to take a taxi to another meeting point 30 minutes away. Otherwise, this would have been a 5 star experience. Definitely worth seeing!

  • Great experience of Cu chi tunnels

    The tunnels were amazing & well worth the 4 hour round trip to see them! Only 10 on the tour which was perfect. Our guide Andrew from Papa Holidays was fantastic. Very knowledgeable. We were limited by time & Andrew kept things moving so we were back on time. Highly recommend this tour especially if time is limited!
