Discover southern Vietnam with us on this day trip to the Cu Chi Tunnels combined with a Mekong River Delta Tour.&nbsp;

In the late 1940s, during Vietnam&rsquo;s struggle against the French colonists, communist forces dug a network of underground tunnels in the jungles of Saigon (now Ho Chi Minh City). On this tour, we&rsquo;ll visit this amazing subterranean network now part of the Vietnam War Memorial Park. If you like, you can also fire the AK47 and M16 rifles they used at the shooting range.

&ldquo;Whatever your view on the Vietnam war is, this place is humbling. The engineering skill, motivation and planning that went into building the tunnels&hellip; really interesting.&rdquo; &mdash; <a href="https://en.tripadvisor.com.hk/ShowUserReviews-g293925-d2005826-r678171422-Cu_Chi_Tunnels-Ho_Chi_Minh_City.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Pete, London (United Kingdom)</a>

Vietnam enchants not only with its historical attractions but also in its natural sights. We continue our noontime travels with a Mekong Delta Tour. After eating a delicious Vietnamese lunch, we will go on a covered boat to see the vast maze of rivers, swamps, and islands that host a bustling network of floating markets, Khmer pagodas, and rice paddies.&nbsp;

Our journey brings us to a local village, home to residents tending to their orchards, where we can enjoy tropical fruit and listen to traditional music. We then continue to the biological treasure trove of the Mekong Delta, home to over 1,000 species of plants and animals. We will witness this wildlife as we weave across the canals of water coconut trees onboard sampans &ndash; small wooden boats hand-rowed by locals.
