What To Expect
The Battle of Long Tan
Long Tan Nui Dat battlefield is the most famous battle fought by the Australian Army during the Vietnam War. This battle took place in a rubber plantation. On 18 August 2016 a low-key ceremony was held on the site of the battle; more than 1,000 Australian veterans and their families travelled to Viet Nam to participate in the 50th anniversary commemoration. The tour will begin with a departure for Ba Ria - Vung Tau Province by minivan. The local guide will take you to the site of Long Tan Battlefield where you will visit the former 1st Australian Task Force at Nui Dat.
Nui Dat hill
Our first stop-over is Nui Dat SAS Hill, where you will be shown the helicopter parking and camping areas of soldiers and explained the important sites during the war. You will have an overview of the 4 km circle of the Nui Dat base perimeter. Next, we will visit the rubber forest and pass Mong Ngua Mountain – which was used to be the shelter of Vietnamese soldiers.

Not what I hoped for

2.00It’s advertised as the Australian base but really not worth the money I paid. Guide kept giving me books to look at. Referring to a map. Tunnels were ok. Very disappointing to pay for a personal tour only to have him double book.
A moving tour

5.00Our guide Chien was most knowledgeable as had first hand family experience of events. Most appreciative of Australian forces and even provided flag service and laying of flower wreath for remembrance.
Excellent tour with Dingo!

5.00A wonderful tour with the very informative Dingo Chien who was very humorous! We got to see many significant sights and photo opportunities. Dingo set up two special Australian memorials for us to remember and reflect on the battle of Long Tan. Highly recommend this tour.
