This half day sharing tour takes you from Ho Chi Minh City to the Cu Chi Tunnels, the underground tunnel network built and used by Vietnamese guerrilla fighters during the Vietnam War. The tour runs on a shared group basis with a guide, covering the site's tunnel sections, bunkers and wartime displays in a half day round trip from the city.

Getting to Cu Chi

The tunnels sit northwest of Ho Chi Minh City, so the visit starts with a road journey out of the city before the guided walk through the site begins. Because it runs on a shared basis, the group travels together and follows one guide for the visit, rather than setting its own pace or route.

A wartime network built to stay hidden

The tunnels were dug in stages from the 1940s onward and expanded through the 1960s into a network stretching many kilometres, used for movement, storage, shelter and makeshift hospitals during years of conflict. Displays at the site set out how the tunnels were disguised at ground level and how people lived underground for long stretches at a time.

Inside the tunnel network

At the site, a guide leads the group through sections of the tunnel system that have been widened for visitors to crawl through, alongside camouflaged trap doors, underground rooms and the kind of wartime displays that explain how the network was used to move, hide and live underground for extended periods. Most half day visits to Cu Chi also include a short orientation video before the walking tour, giving context for what you are about to see on the ground.

Because Rayna's own booking team handles the pickup arrangements and the voucher, any questions about timing or the meeting point can be resolved directly through the booking confirmation rather than a separate supplier.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Cu Chi Tunnels are a network of underground tunnels northwest of Ho Chi Minh City, built and used by Vietnamese guerrilla fighters during the Vietnam War as hiding spots, supply routes and living quarters. Sections have since been widened so visitors can walk or crawl through them today.
The tunnels sit roughly 40 to 70 kilometres northwest of central Ho Chi Minh City, depending on which part of the tunnel network you visit, so a half day tour includes a fair amount of road travel each way.
This half day tour takes you from Ho Chi Minh City to the Cu Chi Tunnels, where a guide leads the group through sections of the tunnel network, bunkers and wartime displays before the return drive to the city.
This tour runs on a shared basis, so you travel and visit the site alongside other travellers rather than as a private group. Everyone follows the same guide and schedule for the half day.
