Want to learn about Ho Chi Minh City&rsquo;s historic wartime history? This full-day tour will take you to the most famous and significant war sites including the Cu Chi Tunnels, War Remnants Museum, Independence Palace, and more.

We&rsquo;ll start the day with a pick-up from your accommodations within the city. Then we&rsquo;ll head to the Cu Chi Tunnels, the famous network of underground passageways used during the Vietnam War and Tet Offensive. Learn what the Vietnamese used to engage in guerilla warfare and see how they lived, ate, and defended themselves and their land. You&rsquo;ll also get to meet a war veteran and get the option to fire a rifle in the firing range too!

&ldquo;This place was absolutely amazing. A must-see for people of all age groups. As an Australian, this museum opened my eyes to what really happened during the Vietnam war. It was confronting, but important to see. I highly recommend that anyone and everyone visit this museum.&rdquo; &ndash; <a href="https://www.tripadvisor.com.ph/ShowUserReviews-g293925-d311103-r841625339-War_Remnants_Museum-Ho_Chi_Minh_City.html" style="text-decoration:none" target="_blank">Jules, Australia</a>

Up next is the striking Independence Palace. Also known as the Reunification Hall, this famous landmark was once the home and office of the past presidents of Vietnam. Explore the grand hall and take note of the stunning architecture before moving on to the next destination.

Our last stop of the day is just across the cathedral at the Central Post Office. This is another building built with a heavy French influence and is known for its striking structure, sweeping ceilings, and many souvenir-selling vendors. We&rsquo;ll take photos of this grand building and maybe purchase a souvenir or two before heading back to your accommodations.
