Half Day - Cu Chi Tunnels (by boat)
TOUR OPERATES: Half Day
After breakfast at your hotel, transfer to jetty and board a speedboat to the Cu Chi tunnels. This journey provides a glimpse of the changing faces of Vietnam - from the glittering skyscrapers and busy commercial centers to green paddy fields and pottery villages dotted along the Saigon River. Upon arrival, you will visit the tunnel which was started in 1948 to protect the Viet Cong guerrillas from the French air and ground sweeps. The tunnels also served as communication routes, storage facilities for food and weapon caches as well as hospitals and living quarters for guerrilla fighters throughout the American war. A visit to the underground villages will provide a better understanding of the tunnels’ history, the hardship of life in the tunnels and the Vietnamese resilience during the war. After that, back to Saigon with a stop en route for lunch at a local restaurant.
