Overview
Within one short day, this tour brings you over a distance of nearly 300km, to the two most contrast but equally interesting sites near Saigon. One site is the Cu Chi tunnel system which experienced one of the most destructive wars in the history of mankind. The other site is the pleasant Mekong delta in My Tho with exuberant orchards and rice fields. After sweating yourself out from going into the underground tunnels which are stuffy and hot, you can relax yourself on a boat ride on the Mighty Mekong river and numerous small canals in pleasant breezes.
