1.Cu Chi Luxury Group Tour – Tapioca and Cake Half Day

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 3,375 reviews · from $21Our pick

Spend about six to seven hours visiting the Cu Chi Tunnels from Ho Chi Minh City. Walk through underground rooms, try a hiding entrance, see bomb craters, watch a 3D film, and taste tapioca with hot tea. Guides such as Bao, Long, Hien, and Tim are praised for clear, thoughtful explanations.

“Overall this was a good tour - our guide Long was great. He did an excellent job presenting the tunnels from all points of view as well an over view of Viet Nam and how it has developed over time. The only negative and this is not Long's issue are the number of visitors at the same time trying to look at the exhibits and get into the tunnels which provide for long periods of standing out in the hot sun.

“An amazing experience! I enjoyed every minute. And I learned so much. The tour guides and bartender are excellent! They answered all of our questions and were so kind and hospitable. The welcome cocktail was excellent also. The grounds are breathtaking and the adorable dogs were a nice bonus. Make sure you get the tequila tasting WITH the chocolates add on. Next level!
