Full description

This is a 10-hour experience from Ho Chi Minh City, built around Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong River Delta. It is run by VietNamNature, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

The price covers Transportation by air-conditioned bus and Canoe, tour guide, 1 main lunch, Mineral water 1 bottle/pax/day and Travel insurance. It does not cover Food & Beverage not mentioned in the program, Tips & personal expenses, Tax and Shooting gun fee, so budget for those separately.

Yes. A widened section of 20 to 100 metres is open to crawl through, with exits every 20 metres, so you can leave when you like; it is hot and tight, and anyone claustrophobic can skip it. Children from about six manage it well. The shooting range is optional and paid on site per bullet.
We confirm your booking with the operator before we treat it as final, and we need at least one day's notice. Once it is confirmed you get the meeting point, the time and a contact number for the day. If the operator cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.
