About
Join our Cu Chi Tunnel Half Day Tour and explore the famous Cu Chi Tunnels with the guidance of an English-speaking expert.
What you'll do
Escape the hustle and bustle of the city to explore the rural scenery and the famous Cu Chi Tunnels in Southern Vietnam. Step into the shoes of a Viet Cong fighter as you climb through an impressive 155-mile-long tunnel network and visit a typical gun shooting area.
Enjoy a convenient hotel pickup from your guide as you depart for Cu Chi. Along the way, watch as the frantic city scenery transitions to a more peaceful, rural setting. Witness passing rice paddy farms, quaint roadside vendors, and increasingly lush greenery.
Optional light lunch for those choosing our morning tour - lunch is at your own expense - location: It is not a professional local restaurant - we do not own it and are not related to it. It is just a place our driver and guide stop for lunch and people have restrooms.

- The tunnels were used by Viet Cong soldiers as hiding spots during combat, as well as serving as communication and supply routes, hospitals, food and weapon caches and living quarters for numerous North Vietnamese fighters.
