Highlights
Explore the legendary Cu Chi Ben Duoc Tunnels, a vital stronghold during the Vietnam War. Unlike the busier Ben Dinh site, Ben Duoc offers a more authentic and less crowded experience.
On this tour, crawl through narrow tunnels, see hidden trapdoors, booby traps, command centers, and underground kitchens, and learn about the resilience of Viet Cong soldiers. Try wartime staples like cassava with tea, and for an adrenaline rush, test your aim at the shooting range (optional).
This half-day tour is perfect for history buffs and adventure seekers, with hotel pickup and a knowledgeable guide ensuring a memorable experience!
What to Expect:
-Explore the less touristy Cu Chi Tunnels in a small group.
-Crawl through underground passageways used by the Viet Cong.
-See traps, hidden bunkers, and kitchens.
-Enjoy wartime food: tapioca and tea.
-Try firing a real gun at the shooting range (optional, extra cost)
