Cu Chi Tunnel Half Day Tour From Ho Chi Minh

THE EXPERIENCE

• 2 hours drive to the tunnel, 2 hours visiting tunnel, and 2 hours driving back to the city center.
• Cu Chi Tunnels is always very busy and often crowded every day of the week! The crowds increase on weekends and during Vietnam’s holiday periods. There can be long morning-queues at every stop with overcrowding on any day you visit.

For Private Tour: Soha Travel makes an early start ( at 7:30 AM ) to arrive at the tunnels before the long unruly queues that build-up with the arrival of the large group tours. Finishing your day mid-afternoon means you miss the homeward 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).

• 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.
