Tour Overview

Explore Cu Chi Tunnels, then travel to My Tho for a Tien River boat ride, canal sampan, coconut candy workshop, fruit and traditional southern music.

Cu Chi History & Mekong Waterways in One Day

Combine a morning visit to Cu Chi Tunnels with an afternoon in the Mekong Delta around My Tho. Depart early from central Ho Chi Minh City, watch an introductory film at Cu Chi and explore the visitor area with your guide. Tea and cassava are served before the onward journey.

Tour Highlights

• Learn about Cu Chi’s underground living and wartime facilities. • Travel to My Tho for a boat ride on the Tien River. • Experience a small canal by sampan. • Visit a coconut candy workshop. • Taste seasonal fruit and honey tea while listening to southern Vietnamese folk music.

Morning: Cu Chi Tunnels

The guide introduces how the tunnel network was built and used, with examples of kitchens, living areas and support facilities. Tunnel entry involves enclosed spaces and may not suit everyone. Discuss mobility needs or concerns about confined spaces with the guide before entering.

Afternoon: My Tho & the Tien River

After lunch at a local restaurant, continue to My Tho for river views and a boat journey past the island landscape. A sampan ride takes you through a smaller canal, followed by local product and music stops. A short village bicycle ride is described as an opportunity; confirm availability and suitability on the day.

Detailed Daily Itinerary

Morning

In the morning

6.45 am – 7.30 am: Our bus and guide will pick you up at your hotel in Ho Chi Minh City Center ( District 1). It will take about 1.5 hour drive to get to Cu Chi Tunnels.

Upon arrival, an introductory video on the Cu Chi tunnels will be presented, discussing initial details on when it was made and how it helped Vietnamese people survived in the harsh conditions of the wartime.

After the video, you will experience walking in the tunnels yourself. With the help of your guide, you can explore the remaining areas and tunnel system which include weapons factories, field hospitals and command centers as well as special living areas with kitchens and bedrooms that helped dwellers to meet their basic needs. There are also many hidden trap doors within the maze-like tunnels for the security purposes during the war.

Special tea and cassava (guerrillas’ food during the war) will be served. A light snack before heading to My Tho City.
