Lets Go!

Your private tour begins as soon as you’re aboard the bus, your knowledgeable guide will give you some information on Vietnam’s history, in preparation for the tunnels. 

The Tunnels

Upon arriving at Ben Dinh Tunnels, we’ll go through the subway and enter into the old base of the Viet Cong. You will be surrounded by thick forest, shaded by beautiful trees and bamboo. Your tour guide will show you around the location while explaining all about the magnificent, clever tunnels. Prepare to be amazed by the cunning traps and the sheer resourcefulness of the Viet Cong. From camouflaged entrances into the tunnels and bamboo booby traps amongst the forest to the intricate ventilation system, you’ll see it all!

Experience The Tunnels For Yourself!

Now, it’s your turn to experience them up close! Embrace this amazing experience of dipping underground and exploring the tunnels.The Viet Cong were particularly small and slim so the tunnels were originally so they could just fit in. Nowadays, for educational purposes the tunnels have been widened slightly. Prepare for a snug adventure as you move through them.

To end our Cu Chi tunnel experience, you’ll get to learn about the amazing hidden kitchens that were inside the tunnels and even try out some typical Viet Cong food. As we move through the unique location you’ll also get the chance to shoot some guns, such as bazookas, AK47’s etc. This comes at an additional cost.
