Overview

This full day trip is a perfect choice for those who want a deeper insight into the 20th century history of Việt Nam. It’s a combined tour, half day city and half day Củ Chi tunnels, which has been suggested by many tourists. You not only gain more information about the Việt Nam War, but you can also witness what was once one of the biggest battlefields in the world, to understand more about a small country whose endurance through many wars during its 4000-year history has given us a peaceful day like today.
