Cu Chi, which is one of Saigon's five rural districts, lies on the North West of this city. During the Vietnam War period , Cu Chi was well known for its tunnels. From here, The National Liberation Front, later known as the Vietcong (VC) launched many surprise attacks on Saigon, the capital of the Republic of Vietnam. In 1966-1967, the South Vietnamese Army, the U. S Army and Australian Royal Army lauched many military operations by sweeping through the Cu Chi area and bombing many villages. In this tour, we will learn how the Vietcong built the tunnels complex , how he lived during the wartime and how he fought the enemies. *Note: If you are arriving at Hiep Phuoc port, please click "MESSAGE KHOA Đ". I will assist you with any information regarding quotes, transfers or any inquiries. - The distance between Hiep Phuoc port and Saigon city center is about 20-25km (40 minute drive to 1 hour drive).
- I will meet you at your hotel lobby in Saigon or at Nha Rong port. *Notes : For travelers on the ships docking at Nha Rong port (2km from Saigon city center). I will meet you at the port gate with a sign bearing your name. The port gate is 5 to 15 minute walk from the ship, or, alternatively, you can use the shuttle bus to get to the port gate. - Then the driver and I will take you to the Cu Chi tunnels (Ben Duoc). During the wartime, it was the Vietcong headquarters for the whole Saigon area. The distance between these tunnels and Ho Chi Minh city center is about 60 km. Once there, I will give you a briefing about the Cu Chi tunnels by means of a map and a battlefield model. - We can avoid the tourist crowds with a visit to more authentic places as follows : complex tunnel system, trapping devices, battle trenches, air vents, fighting bunker, Vietcong village (This is not the original village, it is a reconstruction. ), etc…
