Cu Chi is about 40 km northwest of Saigon. The Cu Chi Tunnels are an elaborate underground community made up of 250 km of tunnels and chambers below the city. The tunnels were dug with simple tools and bare hands during the French occupation in the 1940s, and further expanded during the Vietnam War in the 1960s to provide refuge and a defensive advantage over the American soldiers. Despite all the bombings in their town, the Cu Chi people were able to continue their lives beneath the soil, where they slept, ate planned attacks, healed their sick, and taught their young. Some even wed and gave birth underground, but over 10,000 lost their lives here.

Day 1: Ho Chi Minh city - Cu Chi tunnels

This morning, the tour guide and driver will pick you up at your hotel and depart to Cu Chi. You will drive through pleasant countryside; rubber plantations and rice paddies. At Cu Chi tunnel, you see a short introductory video showing how they were constructed, followed by an exploration of the maze of tunnels, some of which have been widened to allow tourist access. Also on display are various mantraps and the remains of an American tank as well as numerous bomb craters made by 500lb bombs dropped by B52 bombers. If you are interested in shooting, you may try the shooting game right here with AK47, or M16 (by your own expense). After that transfer back to Saigon.
