Itinerary

  • War Remnants Museum

    To understand the US invasion of Vietnam, this remarkable and deeply moving museum is an essential visit. Many of the atrocities documented here are already well publicized, but it's rare to visit a museum such as this, where the victims of US military action are given the space to tell their side of the story.

    1 hour

  • The Independence Palace

    Vietnam's history has gone through thousands of years of civilization with many glorious periods. Up to now, all of them are still the traditional history of the nation, but there is still a remnant of the old resistance wars. And the resistance war entering the Independence Palace to liberate the country not only marked a big turning point for the whole country but also for the whole nation and its descendants for thousands of generations. That is the pride of every Vietnamese

    1 hour

  • Saigon Notre Dame Cathedral

    All the original building materials were imported from France. Tiles have been carved with the words Guichard Carvin, Marseille St André France, stating the district in Marseille where the tiles were produced. Some tiles are carved with the words Wang-Tai Saigon. Many tiles have since been made in Saigon to replace the tiles that were damaged by the war. There are 56 glass squares supplied by the Lorin firm of Chartres, the French town famous for the 13th-century stained-glass windows of its cathedral. The cathedral foundation was designed to bear ten times the weight of the cathedral.

    30 minutes

  • Central Post Office

    The building was constructed when Vietnam was part of French Indochina in the late 19th century. It counts with Gothic, Renaissance and French influences. It was constructed between 1886 and 1891 and is now a tourist attraction.

    30 minutes

  • Cu Chi Tunnels

    After lunch at the local restaurant and take a short break. We'll head to the tunnels, you will see the beautiful countryside view along the way. After around 1.5 hours of driving, arrive at Cu Chi Tunnels, guests will learn more about the history as well as explore the hardships this land experienced during the war. You will watch a short documentary about Cu Chi during the war. Visit booby traps used during wartime. Crawl a short distance through one of the tunnels. Get to taste the typical dish during war "tapioca' and drink pandan leaves tea. You can also try some rifle shooting with an AK-47 (optional at your own expense)

Wonderful

Published on Jan, 2025

We learnt a lot about the Vietnamese war. Tuan was helpful and friendly tour guide. We experience the tunnel from the first time and get mind blowing of how intelligent Vietnamese people were. The bus seats were comfortable. Highly recommended!!!!

Informative Historic Tour

Published on Jan, 2025

Informative trip with knowledgeable guide Son, who was able to explain all about Vietnam history using great English. We loved the war museum, only downside was that we ran out of time, another hour would have been good but realise that wouldn’t have fitted in with the tour. Lunch was delicious. The chi chi tunnels were remarkable and great explanations again by Son. Definitely recommend this trip if you are in Ho Chi Minh and if you are lucky Son will be your guide
