In the morning, 1 hour transfer from Ho Chi Minh City to Cu Chi will take you to the famous Cu Chi tunnels where you will spend the next couple of hours exploring the area and learning about the history and the incredible tenacity and ingenuity of its inhabitants. The more adventurous will have the opportunity to crawl through the tunnels and to fire off some rounds from AK47 or M16 assault riffles at the shooting range before driving to Mekong Delta. Have lunch at restaurant on the way. On arrival, enjoy cruising along the Mekong River to Unicorn Island and then take a paddle-boat to cruise through a narrow canal. The boat ride will provide an interesting look into the cottage industries where coconut candles are manufactured by the locals.

Itinerary
Situated 40 km away from Ho Chi Minh City, the Cu Chi tunnels consist of a vast and ingenious network of underground tunnels connecting living and cooking areas, storage facilities, weapons factories, field hospitals, command centers but also hundreds of trap doors, that played a strategic role in the resistance of the Viet Cong soldiers during the ‘American War’, helping them to control a large rural area around Ho Chi Minh City
As a traditional gateway to Mekong Delta, My Tho is the favorite tourist destination to get a glimpse into the unique Mekong river life and landscapes.

About Ho Chi Minh City
Ho Chi Minh City, still widely called Saigon, is Vietnam's buzzing commercial hub of French colonial landmarks, war history and superb street food.
District 1 holds the main sights within walking distance: the red-brick Notre-Dame Cathedral, the elegant Central Post Office with its vaulted hall, the colonial Opera House and the ornate City Hall. The Independence Palace preserves its rooms as they were at the end of the war, and the War Remnants Museum tells the story of the conflict with sobering directness.
Top-ranked sights in Ho Chi Minh City: Cu Chi Tunnels, Saigon Opera House (Opéra de Saïgon), Saigon Central Post Office.
