Upon arrival at the Cu Chi Tunnels, you’ll explore an astonishing underground tunnel network built by Vietnamese resistance fighters (Viet Cong) during both the French and American wars. Your visit begins with the Ben Dinh or Ben Duoc sections of the tunnels.

Here, you can imagine life as a guerrilla fighter, with Russian Carbine rifles and AK-47s on display. Spend time exploring the remaining tunnel system, which includes living quarters with kitchens and bedrooms, alongside essential facilities such as weapons factories, field hospitals, and command centers that supported the inhabitants’ basic needs. You’ll also discover hidden trap doors and dangerous traps within the maze-like tunnels, designed for security during the war.
