Cu Chi Tunnels - Arrive in Cu Chi tunnels
Tour guide will give you an overview introduction of Cu Chi Tunnels and its legendary history. Enjoy the scenic drive northwest towards the Cambodian border. You will get to explore a section of the network of some 125 miles (200 kilometers) of subterranean passages and rooms. Upon arrival at the Cu Chi Tunnels, take a short documentary film about the Cu Chi tunnels tell you how about the tunnels histories and how fierce the war happened. Then the tour guide will help you to learn the pivotal part they played in the war such as trap doors, and climb inside to see where the Viet Cong built storage facilities, weapons factories, kitchens. Afterward travelers can try local special foods like rice tapioca and hot tea which was main food in Cu Chi during the war. Visitors can try to fire off an AK47 or MK16 or machine guns at the nearby shooting range (not included, participate at own expense and risk).
Leave Cu Chi tunnels and transfer for lunch. - Ben Thanh Market - Ben Thanh Market in Ho Chi Minh City’s District 1 is a great place to buy local handicrafts, branded goods, Vietnamese art and other souvenirs. Here, youâll find eating stalls inside the market where you can get a taste of hawker-style Vietnamese cuisine or simply cool off with a cold drink when the bargaining becomes too much. The market is big, difficult to navigate at times and certainly best avoided during the hottest part of the day but all the same its well worth a look. When night falls, restaurants around the perimeter of the market open their doors creating a vibrant street side scene filling the air with the scents of wok-fried noodles, barbecued fish and meats. One of Saigonâs oldest landmarks, Ben Thanh offers a great atmosphere that is absolutely authentically Vietnamese.
- Ho Chi Minh City - If we have more time (depending on cruise ship schedule), we could arrange you to visit more famous places in Ho Chi Minh City: Notre Dame Cathedral, The Central Post Office, Independence Palace, The Peopleâs Committee Building Saigon .etc.

Great Guide! - James was a wonderful tour guide! We couldn’t make Cu Chi tunnels due to a time restraint with our ship but he made the day great! Wonderful photos he took of us throughout the day. Knowledgable and informative! He kept the day moving along quickly. We covered a lot in a short amount of time. Had lunch at the coolest place (highlight) of the day! Very kind and very safe.

The best cruise excursion day with Liam! - The best day in SE Asia! Liam our guide was the best part of the experience. He took us to beautiful temples, a delicious lunch, the royal palace, he got us the most delicious coffee and of course the famous tik tok coffee houses, and can’t forget the best Bahn Mi in Ho Chi Minh City!! He was also the best photographer all day! He truly felt like a friend by lunch and family by the time the day ended. Our family traveled with my mother in law and my 10 year old and my husband and I. The van was perfect and clean and comfortable and it was the best excursion of our whole cruise but especially thanks to Liam. We can’t wait to go back to Vietnam and we will definitely be choosing Liam when we do!

Cu Chi Tunnels - Private Cruise Excursion - We came in on a cruise ship, Mr. Castle was there with a sign waiting for us when we disembarked. His English was excellent and he was very easy to understand and carry on conversation with - we are from the USA so we were impressed with his English immediately. We drove to the tunnels, they were very educational and unique! We enjoyed our guide a lot, we were surprised with how far away the tunnels were though, traffic is crazy here and it take so long to get from the port to anywhere, but our guide had the right amount of interaction, information sharing, and quiet time for us to relax while riding to and from the tunnels. Highly recommend this company for their fine service.

Got to see the Tunnels which was our goal but this was not what was advertised and spent a long time in the car. - This tour was great but be warned it is a lot of time travelling.
Although advertised as two locations and lunch due to the traffic and timings we actually spent 8 hours in the road and only 1.5 hours at the Chi Chi Tunnels. However the guide we had was great and very knowledgable. It’s just a shame that the title of this tour is not what it is. We also had no time to stop for food so I’m glad I took snacks! Water was provided.
