WHAT TO EXPECT?

Learn the struggles of life in wartime Vietnam firsthand when you go below ground in the notorious Cu Chi Tunnels. See how soldiers and civilians lived through the conflicts and the ingenious methods used to conceal themselves.

An extremely complex tunnel system, the Cu Chi network covers a wide area of countryside near to Ho Chi Minh city and was an excellent way for the Viet Cong to move underground, undetected by American forces.

The Cu Chi tour starts with an introductory video detailing its long 25-year construction. Then it is time to go underground in the infamous 120-mile Cu Chi tunnel system which offered a safe haven for soldiers and thousands of Vietnamese people during the Vietnam War.

On display are booby traps, the remains of an US army tank and huge craters left by American B52 bombs. You will be able to admire lots of compelling photos and personal effects left behind.

There is also the chance to take part in your own “HUNGER GAMES” and fire an authentic AK rifle used during the war (magazines’s fee is on your own).

Who should visit the Cu Chi Tunnels tour?

Many people asking me : my father have back problem, can he join the tour? Is it safe for my kids? I can not stay too long in the tunnels, can i join, is it safe for me?….

Here is the answer: everyone can join the Cu chi tunnels half day tour with Saigon Adventure. Regarding the tunnel crawling experience, it is actually only 100m to 150m in length. Every 30m, there is an exit, so you can stop crawling every 30m. The total time spent crawling is only 2-10 minutes, depending on the length of the tunnel you choose to crawl.

For those who do not want to crawl through the tunnels, you can walk above ground with the guerrilla soldiers assigned here to guide and assist you to the end point of the tunnel section. You will meet the others here (it only takes 2-3 minutes to walk). You will still experience the full Cu Chi tunnels tour, just skipping the 2-10 minute tunnel crawling part.

“Tips to Beat the crowds”

Cu Chi Tunnels is always very busy and often crowded every day of the week! The crowds increase weekend and during Vietnam’s holiday periods and weekend. There can be long morning-queues at every stops with overcrowding on any day you visit.

Here are our tips for enjoying this tour with us:

For Private Tour : we make an early start ( at 7:30 AM or 7:45 AM ) to arrive at the tunnel before the long unruly queues that build-up with the arrival of the large group tours. Finish your day mid-afternoon means you miss homewards rush too. This is important advice for families traveling with elders and young children ( you will be back to the city on time for lunch). Or you can depart at 10:00 AM to avoid big crowds.
