Used by Viet Cong guerrillas as hiding spots during combat, as well as serving as communication and supply routes, hospitals, food and weapon caches and living quarters, the tunnel systems were greatly important to the Viet Cong in their resistance to American forces, and helped achieve ultimate military success.
Together with Mekong Delta tour, Cu Chi is the MUST visit place in Ho Chi Minh city area!
7.30 am: Picked up at your Cruise dock of Saigon, and be transferred to Cu Chi tunnel of Ben Dinh through rice paddies, farmland, and rubber plantation.
You will then watch documentary film to have the first view about the war happened at the Cu Chi area. After the film documentary, you will walk along the forest to experience the B52 boom crater, secrect entrance, and bamboo spike, rolling, see-saw, folding traps and American tank trapped by delayed mine remained. After having a break at the shooting range, you will keep going to see military uniform making bunker, Ho Chi Minh shoes making, and then try to go underground the tunnel (you do not have to go underground if you do not want but highly recommend to try the shortest part of tunnel if possible. Any way, you will be guided through the tunnel and exits are along the tunnel so that you can get out at any 5 to 10 minutes). Get back to the car and drive back to Saigon.

Too much overt communism propaganda in the tunnels. I expected some, but more balance would be more appropriate and realistic, (not from guide) he did a terrific job.
