Itinerary
From your hotel, enjoy a scenic drive to the historic Cu Chi region. Explore the intricate tunnel network used during the war—crawl through narrow passageways and discover hidden kitchens, bunkers, hospitals, and meeting rooms. Afterwards, relax and watch a compelling documentary that reveals the fascinating history of the tunnels and the ingenious traps crafted by locals.
Around midday, enjoy a traditional Vietnamese lunch before heading to My Tho, a charming province in the Mekong Delta. Upon arrival, board a boat to cruise along the Mekong River, exploring the famous “Four Animal Islands”—Dragon, Unicorn, Phoenix, and Turtle. Along the way, observe the daily lives of locals living by the riverside. Next, venture into smaller canals to discover lush fruit orchards, coconut groves, and bee farms. Savor local treats like honey tea, seasonal fruits, and coconut candy while enjoying traditional Vietnamese folk music. Finally, relax during your comfortable van ride back to your hotel.

Kit’s the best tour guide
Great experience & our tour guide made it so much better. Good English, good explanations, and a truly unique experience - found out my new favorite candy is coconut candy! Left around 8 and ended our tour with the sunset on the water. Also learned so much more about the Vietnam war & the cultural differences among hcmc and Mekong
Amazing Cultural Experience - Bring a Fan!
CK (Kit) was an amazing guide! Funny and very knowledgeable. Tour was a full day (12hrs) and it was hot. Highly recommend bringing a fan or something to help keep cool during the day. Overall great experience to get a true feel of the Vietnamese and Sigonese cultures.
