Overview

Just 40 km (25 miles) northwest of Ho Chi Minh City lies one of Vietnam’s most remarkable wartime relics—the Cu Chi Tunnels. This massive underground network stretches over 250 km and once connected hidden living quarters, kitchens, storage rooms, weapons factories, field hospitals, and command centers.

Originally dug by hand in the 1940s during the resistance against the French, the tunnels were later expanded in the 1960s–70s during the Vietnam War (also known as the "American War"). They became a fully functioning underground city, complete with trapdoors, ventilation systems, and supply routes used by Vietnamese revolutionary forces.

On this immersive tour, you'll crawl through narrow passageways, discover hidden bunkers, and hear incredible stories of resilience and survival. It’s a powerful journey into the past—one that offers a unique glimpse into how these tunnels helped shape Vietnam’s fight for independence.

    After meeting your guide, leave the busy streets of Saigon on a 1.5 hour drive to Cu Chi district. You will be taken through the typical countryside of southern Vietnam. On arrival, the visit starts with a short video documentary before spending the next 3 hours exploring the Ben Dinh section of the tunnels. You will learn more about the history, incredible tenacity and ingenuity of the Cu Chi inhabitants. More adventurous travelers will have the opportunity to crawl through the tunnels and to fire off some rounds from AK-47 or M-16 assault rifles at the shooting range. Taste traditional boiled tapioca and hot tea before heading back to Saigon.
