Set out from your hotel in a private military Jeep with an expert guide on an inspiring journey to the Cu Chi Tunnels, located just 1.5 hours northwest of Saigon. This adventurous ride allows you to immerse yourself in the vibrant scenery and thrilling morning/afternoon traffic. At the Cu Chi Tunnels, navigate the narrow passageways that challenge your agility and invite deep reflection on a complex historical period. Make a brief stop at a rubber plantation to discover the art of sap collection before reaching the Ben Dinh tunnels. Here, you’ll view a 1966 documentary and walk through the old battlefield, once known as the Free Fire Zone, gaining insight into the past. Witness powerful war relics like B-52 bomb craters and hidden booby traps. If you’re feeling adventurous, test your skills at the national shooting range with different types of rifles, at your own expense.

As you explore the extensive tunnel network, you'll uncover the resilient spirit of the Viet Cong and their way of life during the war. With our small group size, you’ll gain access to areas that most American tourists overlook, enriching your experience. Before returning to your Jeep, savor some steamed tapioca at the underground Hoang Cam kitchen. On the way back, relax with chilled local beers, mineral water, soft drinks, and snacks, or choose to be dropped off at your preferred location in downtown Saigon or at your cruise ship port.
