Overview

This full-day bus tour lasts about 10 to 12 hours and covers two major attractions near Ho Chi Minh City: the Cu Chi Tunnels and the Mekong Delta. The group departs early with hotel pickup available in Districts 1, 3, and 4. The van ride totals almost five hours, traveling between the city, Cu Chi district, and the Mekong Delta. The first stop is the Ben Dinh Tunnels, where guests watch a short propaganda film before spending an hour exploring exhibits of weapons and booby traps, walking through authentic Viet Cong tunnels, and visiting underground bunkers such as kitchens, meeting rooms, and ammunition storage. There is also access to a firing range. After sampling local tapioca snacks, the tour continues to the main Cu Chi Tunnels site for two hours with a similar program. Next, the tour heads to the Mekong Delta with a 1.5-hour drive through rural scenery. Lunch is served at a local restaurant and includes five courses of Vietnamese dishes. Following lunch, the group arrives in My Tho, where participants board a motorboat to cruise the Mekong River and its canals, passing by the Dragon, Unicorn, Turtle, and Phoenix Islands. In Ben Tre, guests take a sampan rowed by locals along shaded canals lined with water coconut trees. A ride on a Xe Lôi, a local transport vehicle, follows to explore the villages. The return to My Tho pier includes a scenic boat ride before a 1.5-hour transfer back to Ho Chi Minh City. Drop-off is at the original hotel pickup location. The tour includes lunch, snacks, bottled water, all boat trips, and a Vietnamese-English speaking guide. It is a long but comprehensive day covering historical and natural highlights around Ho Chi Minh City.
