Your guide introduces the history of the Saigon River as a wartime supply route. Journey time to Bến Đình: approximately one hour.

2. The boat docks at the Bến Đình pier. The group disembarks and begins the site visit. Bến Đình is the main publicly accessible section of the Cu Chi tunnel network, situated directly on the Saigon River. A short documentary (~20 minutes) covers the construction and use of the Cu Chi tunnel network, daily underground life, and the military campaign in the Cu Chi district. Your guide adds context before the outdoor exploration begins. The guide leads the group through the site on foot: concealed trapdoor entrances in the jungle floor, booby trap displays, bomb craters, and underground sections (kitchens, meeting rooms, storage). The optional tunnel crawl — a widened section of the original system — is available for those who want the full underground experience. Cassava and hot tea tasting follows the exploration. Period weapons available at the on-site shooting range (AK-47, M-16, and others). Approximately $1–2 USD per bullet, minimum 10 bullets, payable on site. Entirely optional.

About Ho Chi Minhstad

Ho Chi Minhstad, vaak nog Saigon genoemd, is het bruisende handelscentrum van Vietnam met Frans koloniaal erfgoed, oorlogsgeschiedenis en straatvoedsel.

District 1 herbergt de belangrijkste bezienswaardigheden op loopafstand: de roodstenen Notre-Dame-kathedraal, het sierlijke Centrale Postkantoor met zijn gewelfde hal, het koloniale Operahuis en het rijk versierde Stadhuis. In het Onafhankelijkheidspaleis zijn de kamers bewaard zoals ze aan het einde van de oorlog waren, en het Museum van de Oorlogsresten vertelt het verhaal van het conflict met ontnuchterende openheid.

Top-ranked sights in Ho Chi Minhstad: Cu Chi Tunnels, Saigon Opera House (Opéra de Saïgon), Saigon Central Post Office.
