seen and experienced of Southern Vietnam is all packed in this round tour. See

War at the city’s War Museum. Come to witness the unthinkable vitality of Vietnamese
at the Cu Chi underground tunnels, the former resistance base of Viet Cong

Afternoon, transfer to discover the Cu Chi Tunnels which was once a major underground hideout and
resistance base of Viet Cong forces during the two wars against the French and
later on Americans. The tunnels, entirely hand-dug, formed a highly intricate
network of interlinked multilevel passageways at times stretched as far as the
Cambodian border and totaling over 120 km in length. Its complexity was beyond
imagination containing meeting rooms, kitchens, wells, clinics, schools,
depots, trenches and emergency exits all aimed for guerrilla warfare. The
tunnels were deep and strong enough to withstand destructive bombings and
self-contained enough to outlast prolonged sieges. Back to Ho Chi Minh City for
shopping time at Ben Thanh market.
