Take a tour of the famed Cu Chi Tunnels and hear the fascinating story behind it. A local guide will escort you underground for a brief visit. Tour a section of the massive system of tunnels that once provided safe haven and a base of operations for communist forces. The Viet Cong excavated more than 124 miles of underground tunnels. The tons of soil from the excavation were so well scattered that some entrances to the complex were never found. Your tour is followed by an opportunity for souvenir shopping and a video on the tunnels with commentary on the war. You'll see a demonstration of the process of making Vietnamese rice paper inside the tunnels. A sit-down lunch at a local restaurant is included on this excursion.

Special Notes:

The drive to Cu Chi is approximately three hours and includes a restroom stop. Some roads are unpaved; the ride can be bumpy.

This tour is not suitable for guests with limited mobility or guests using wheelchair and it is not recommended for guests suffering with claustrophobia.
