Your Experience

Discover Wartime History at Cu Chi Tunnels

Start your day with a 1.5 hr air-conditioned ride from your hotel in Ho Chi Minh City to the iconic Cu Chi Tunnels. Led by an English–speaking guide, uncover the wartime life of the Vietnamese within this massive underground network. Watch a film to gain context before traversing the 250 km tunnel network that features kitchens, bedrooms, weapons factories, and hospitals. Witness hidden trap doors and cleverly disguised traps within these maze-like tunnels once inhabited by soldiers. After this immersive experience, refuel with a taste of guerrilla life as you savor special tea and cassava, and enjoy a hearty Vietnamese lunch at a local restaurant.

Visit the Serene Mekong Delta & My Tho City

The adventure resumes at My Tho city in the heart of the Mekong Delta. A motorboat ride on the Tien River reveals the lush beauty of the Dragon, Unicorn, Phoenix, and Tortoise islands – named after sacred animals in Vietnamese mythology. Enjoy a sampan ride through smaller canals, revealing the rustic beauty of the countryside. A brief cycling tour around a local village further immerses you in regional life. Cap it off with a visit to a coconut candy workshop, seasonal fruits, and honey tea, sweetened by the melodies of local folk music – Don Ca Tai Tu, a UNESCO–recognized Intangible Cultural Heritage.
