Itinerary
In the morning you will departure for the Cu Chi Tunnels. The Cu Chi Tunnels are an impressive network of tunnels with a length of over 250 km. This strategic place was used by 15,000 Viet Cong fighters during the war. This main axis system has many branches connecting to underground hideouts, shelters, and entrances to other tunnels. The tunnels are between 0.5 to 1 m wide, just enough space for a person to walk along by bending or dragging. However, parts of the tunnels have been modified to accommodate visitors. The upper soil layer is between 3 to 4 m thick and can support the weight of a 50-ton tank and the damage of light cannons and bombs. The underground network provided sleeping quarters, meeting rooms, hospitals, and other social rooms.
Arrive at the tunnel gates, we will watch the movie of the war time. Then we have time to inspect the tunnel site, visit the gates, traps, underground hospitals, worships, kitchens, bunkers and go through a section of the tunnel. Our trip ends and we transfer back to Saigon in the late morning.
