Your guide and driver will be waiting for you in the hotel lobby at 8:30am
You will journey out of the city center to the Cu Chi regions, where you will visit the vast underground network of tunnels built first as a defense against the French, and later expanded during the American War. It was from here that the North Vietnamese waged their guerrilla warfare and you will marvel at their ingenuity and resilience. See secret trapdoors, underground kitchens, living areas and meeting rooms.
You will return to Saigon and visit the former Presidential Palace, now the Reunification Palace, the place where the war came to an end on April 30, 1975. The former Presidential Palace, which is now preserved as a museum, including the underground communications bunkers, headquarters for the Saigon Government during the American War.
At the end of the day you will visit the War Remnants Museum with its powerful display of grim realities of the war. Formerly known as the War Crimes Museum, the War Remnants Museum is by far the most well-known museum in Saigon, exhaustively documenting the horrors of the long Vietnam- American war. Newly housed in modern building, exhibits include explicit photographs of civilian casualties, and a collection of tanks, planes and weapons in the yard outside.
At the end of your tour you will be returned back to your hotel in Ho Chi Minh City.
