HIGHLIGHTS

Cu Chi tunnels is one of the most famous historical vestiges of Viet Nam’s national liberation war. The network consists of over 200km of tunnels connected with one another like a cobweb.the tunnels were dug and removed with rudimentary tools, then camouflaged the openings so well that nobody could find them

My Tho is 86km away from Ho Chi Minh City and one of the attractive destinations not to be missed. There will be activities such as taking a boat ride on Tien River, overlooking the floating houses along the river, sitting on a horse-cart and taking part in learning how to make the coconut candies as well as participating in rowing a small boat in a canal…
