A long but rewarding day. The tunnels were fascinating and the Mekong Delta was beautiful — the rowing sampan ride was the highlight.
Combine two of southern Vietnam's highlights in one full day — the historic Cu Chi Tunnels and the waterways of the Mekong Delta.
Start the day at the Cu Chi Tunnels, the remarkable underground network built by the Viet Cong. Explore the tunnels, see the hidden entrances, traps and workshops, and hear first-hand stories of life underground during the war. After lunch, continue to My Tho in the Mekong Delta. Cruise along the river and its palm-lined canals, visit a coconut candy workshop and a honey farm, and enjoy a peaceful rowing sampan ride through the narrow waterways. Seasonal tropical fruit and honey tea are served along the way. This day trip is ideal for travellers who want to see both Vietnam's wartime history and the lush, vibrant life of the Mekong Delta in a single journey from Ho Chi Minh City.
