After breakfast, drive to the extraordinary Cu Chi tunnels, just outside Ho Chi Minh City. During the war for independence, “Viet Cong” guerillas built the labyrinth of narrow tunnels virtually underneath U.S. bases, using them to hide during bombing raids and to stage surprise attacks.

En route to Cu Chi, seasonally we can see how rural people live and work. View occupations such as cashew nut farming, rice farming and production of rice paper, a key ingredient in Vietnamese cuisine.

Lunch  at  local  restaurant. Return to Ho Chi Minh City in the afternoon for a half-day city tour. War  Museum or History Museum, Visit the Reunification Palace, Notre Dame Cathedral, Central Post Office and Cao Dai temple
