Itineraries

At 8:00 AM we will pick up from your hotel in Ho Chi Minh city and depart for Cu Chi Tunnels from Ho Chi Minh City for 1.5-hour car ride.

On the way, you will have a chance to pass Ho Chi Minh city through many districts and areas in which each of them will promise to give you different stories. The peacefully rural rice paddy field is home for ducks and buffalo swimming in the rivers along the side of the road.

Arriving at Cu Chi tunnel, following your guide through this historic military site, which is a war memorial park now, and used to be a key position for the Viet Cong during the Vietnam War (known as the American War in Vietnam). Learn how the tunnels provided shelter, supply and communication routes, medical treatment sites, food, and weapon storage. See booby traps that were built to capture intruders and dioramas that illustrate daily life in the tunnels. If you like, you can even crawl through parts of the narrow passageways. Trying tapioca desserts.

After your time in Cu Chi, returning to the city for a traditional Vietnamese lunch served at a fine-decorated restaurant which has a very high rank on Tripadvisor.

Then spend the afternoon visiting Ho Chi Minh City's top sights. Start your city tour at Reunification Palace. A short walk from the palace, your guide shows you interesting places, such as French Colonial architecture, including Notre Dame Cathedral, the Central Post Office, Ho Chi Minh City Hall, and Ho Chi Minh Municipal Theater, also known as the Saigon Opera House. Strolling toward the Saigon River along Dong Khoi Street and Nguyen Hue Boulevard to admire historic buildings and the ultra-modern Bitexco Tower, one of the tallest skyscrapers in Vietnam.

Wrapping up your afternoon at Ben Thanh Market — the city’s central market and one of its most colorful areas. Marveling at tones of goods, and practicing your bargaining skills if you would like to purchase any items.

Summarizing the whole trip with full of great memories and information, your guide will return you to your hotel.
