Overview of Tunnles

- Cu Chi Tunnels are part of a massive and elaborate tunnel system used during the Vietnam War. This place offers a reliable stronghold for Viet Cong soldiers during the wars against the French and mainly the US soldiers. It comprises more than 200km of underground tunnels with booby traps and trapdoors, living areas, kitchens, storage facilities, hospitals, and command centers. By walking and crawling through the tunnels, you will get a sense of the world of guerrilla warfare in the incredible Cu Chi tunnels and gain insight into the tenacity and bravery of the soldiers.

Before entering the tunnels we will stop to discover rubber plantations or rice field.

10:00 AM

Cu Chi Tunnel

- Discover how the tunnels were built by fighters as a base from which the Viet Cong could operate.

- We will visit a underground network dug-out which was being used during the Vietnam - USA war. There is little evidence to indicate the intense fighting, bombing and destruction that went on in Cu Chi during the war.

- Lunch will be served with a local special style.

“ Lee made our trip! ”

My son and I met Lee for a private tour of the city. He is very accommodating as far as our start time and flexibility as to where and what you want to see. His English is flawless and his sense of humor made us laugh throughout the day. We found we became fast friends. He found a catholic orphanage I was looking for and took us there. The eco village is a highlight as the locals go there to get away from the city. We were so impressed with Lee we hired him privately for 2 more days. You won't regret having Lee as your private guide. I think you will enjoy the sights more with him. He is very knowledgeable about Saigon and his love of his country shines through! Thank you for making our trip that much more memorable by sharing your history and knowledge of Vietnam in a fun and joyous way!

“ Fantastic ”

One word comes to mind to describe Lee: Fantastic. He is very passionate about his country, and I learned so much from him about Vietnam and the Cao Dai religion, as well as his daily life. A great tour guide. Thanks again Lee - you made my trip memorable and I loved meeting you. I will never forget. Jenny!
