WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
This tour offers a fascinating contrast between Vietnam’s wartime history and
its timeless rural traditions. Begin your morning at the Cu Chi Tunnels, where
you’ll crawl through narrow passageways and see firsthand how resilience and
ingenuity helped people survive during the war. After lunch, shift into a
slower pace as you sail the Mekong River, surrounded by lush landscapes,
tropical fruits, and traditional music. From sampan rides to village cycling,
every moment is designed to immerse you in authentic southern life.
