Itinerary

Day 1

Ho Chi Minh city - Cu Chi Tunnels

7:30am pick up at your hotel and travel north with a private van towards Cu Chi. It will take approximately 90 minutes from Saigon.

Cycle around 30km through small communities on quiet roads. Enjoy the relaxing atmosphere while traveling through rubber trees far from Saigon’s busy traffic. Visit with your biking guide a rice paper making place as well as many other village industries. Along the way, you will also get the chance to observe locals working in the field and taking care of their livestock.

With the independence of the bike, you will easily be able to stop for breaks, pictures but also to chat with the villagers and get to know more about their daily lives. In Cu Chi, you will be accompanied through the historical and technical aspects of the tunnels by a local guide.

Lunch at local restaurant in town (authentic Vietnamese food!)

The drive back to town in the van takes just over an hour and a half.

We conclude the tour by bringing you back to your hotel around 4pm.
