Description

Start your day with a hotel pickup in Ho Chi Minh City and enjoy a scenic drive to Tay Ninh Province. Your first stop is Black Virgin Mountain (Ba Den Mountain), a famous spiritual and natural attraction. Stroll through the lush surroundings and soak in the peaceful atmosphere. For those who wish, you can take the cable car to the summit for breathtaking panoramic views — cable car ticket is not included in the tour price. We recommend prepaying with us to avoid queues at the ticket counter. After your mountain visit, enjoy a delicious local lunch before continuing to Cao Dai Temple, a colorful and sacred site blending elements of Buddhism, Christianity, Taoism, and Confucianism. Your guide will share fascinating insights into the unique Cao Dai religion and the daily ceremonies held here. At the end of the day, relax on the shared return transfer back to Ho Chi Minh City, where you will be dropped off at your hotel or the original pickup point. Please note: The itinerary is flexible and may be adjusted to suit weather conditions, traffic, or guest preferences. Additional note: As some guests may continue to Cu Chi Tunnels after this tour, you might be transferred to another vehicle for your return trip. We appreciate your understanding should this cause any inconvenience.
