Your Experience

Explore two distinct sides of Vietnam—its wartime resilience and rural charm—on this immersive full-day guided tour of the Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta.

Getting started

Get picked up from your hotel in Ho Chi Minh City and settle in for a 90-minute drive to the Cu Chi Tunnels’ Ben Dinh site.

Cu Chi Tunnels

Start with a short film that introduces the tunnel network and its role during the Vietnam War. Then, explore the preserved underground maze—complete with living quarters, field hospitals, weapons storage, and booby traps once used by the Viet Cong. Wrap up your visit with a tasting of cassava and tea, a staple for soldiers who lived here during the war.

Lunch break

Enjoy a traditional Vietnamese lunch at a local restaurant before heading south toward the Mekong Delta.

Mekong Delta exploration

Cruise along the Tien River, passing Dragon, Unicorn, Phoenix, and Tortoise Islands. Visit a coconut candy workshop, enjoy seasonal fruits and honey tea, and learn about Delta life. Take a rowing boat through narrow canals and hop on a short village bike ride to see daily rural life up close.

Folk music & return

Wind down with a live performance of Southern Vietnamese folk music before making your way back to Ho Chi Minh City.
