Your Cu Chi Tunnels Tour Experience
Full activities
Begin our trip to Cu Chi by departing at around 8am or 13:00 from your hotel. Then we travel through the countryside which was once a stronghold of the Viet Cong. Upon arrival, watch a short video about what life was like for soldiers during the war. The cramped tunnels were central to a few of the war’s strategic operations, including the famous 1968 Tet Offensive, and they didn’t escape damage. American B52 bombers dropped hundreds of missiles leaving huge tell-tale craters behind.
The tunnels served not only as living quarters, but as supply routes and hospitals for thousands of guerilla fighters. Today they are viewed by some as a testimony to the Vietnamese people’s resiliency. Also In Cu Chi, you will have the opportunity to buy the bullet and try to fire off an AK47 or MK16 or machine guns at the nearby shooting range. Leaving Cu Chi tunnels we get back to the Car / Van transfer to Ho Chi Minh City. Our services end at the hotel after 5 hours.
