Cu Chi | Walk Through an Actual Viet Cong Tunnel

At the Cu Chi Tunnels — one of Vietnam’s most iconic historical sites — you’ll have the rare opportunity to walk through a real tunnel once used by Viet Cong guerrillas during the war. These are not replicas, but part of the original tunnel system, slightly widened for safety, while still preserving the original layout and structure.

As you crouch, crawl, or carefully walk through the narrow, dimly lit passageways — often just 80–100 cm high — you’ll get a genuine feel for the intense conditions Vietnamese soldiers endured underground. Along the way, you’ll pass by recreated facilities such as the Hoang Cam kitchen, weapons storage, and bomb shelters.

This is a raw and immersive experience, offering deep insight into the resilience, resourcefulness, and bravery of those who fought in the resistance. A must-do for anyone seeking to understand Vietnam’s wartime history firsthand.
