Description

Discover the history of Ho Chi Minh City and the famous Cu Chi Tunnels with three flexible options: Option 1: a Full-Day City & Cu Chi Tour Your day begins with a hotel pickup in central District 1. For the Full-Day option, you will first explore the highlights of Ho Chi Minh City, including the Independence Palace, the Notre Dame Cathedral (outside only during restoration), the Central Post Office, and the War Remnants Museum with its powerful collection of wartime exhibits. After a Vietnamese lunch at a local restaurant, continue your journey to the legendary Cu Chi Tunnels. Option 2: a Half-Day Cu Chi Tour For the Half-Day option, you will travel directly to Cu Chi in the morning or afternoon, depending on your chosen schedule. At Cu Chi, both options follow the same program: Enjoy a short documentary about how the tunnels were constructed and the extreme conditions of wartime life. Then walk through the remaining tunnel system, featuring underground living quarters, kitchens, storage areas, workshops, and the iconic trapdoors used for defense. For the adventurous, you can crawl through a section of the tunnel to experience the tight spaces firsthand. After the visit, enjoy tapioca and hot tea, the traditional food of guerrilla fighters. Visitors may also try the shooting range (optional, at your own expense). Option 3: HCMC/Sai Gon Highlights Halfday Morning/Afternoon Morning Option (07:30–12:00) Visit Independence Palace, Notre Dame Cathedral (outside), Central Post Office, and the War Remnants Museum. Learn about the city's history and French colonial architecture before returning to your hotel. Afternoon Option (12:30–16:30) Explore Cho Lon and Thien Hau Pagoda in Chinatown, then enjoy a relaxing waterbus ride along the Saigon River. See skyline highlights such as Landmark 81, Bitexco Tower, and District 2 from the water before returning to your hotel. Finally, relax on the drive back to Ho Chi Minh City. Return time depends on your tour choice: – Full Day: around 7:00 PM – Half Day: around 3:00 PM (morning trip) or 7:00 PM (afternoon trip)
