Meals: breakfast, lunch, dinner 

Your journey begins in the morning as you board a luxury speedboat at Saigon WaterBus Station. As the boat glides along the river, you’ll enjoy the fresh breeze while being served a light breakfast of Sugar Town cake, seasonal fruits, and mineral water. This peaceful cruise also offers a glimpse into the everyday life of local communities along the riverbanks.

Upon arrival at the Cu Chi Tunnels, you’ll start with a short documentary introducing the history of this extraordinary underground network. Then, follow your guide through the jungle trails to discover hidden trapdoors, secret bunkers, and wartime shelters. You’ll have the chance to observe rice paper and rice wine being made, crawl into the tunnels for an authentic experience, and even test your aim at the rifle range (bullets not included). A short break with green tea and tapioca—the staple food during the resistance—adds a meaningful touch to the visit.

By midday, you’ll be treated to a traditional Vietnamese lunch featuring a delicious seven-course menu. Afterward, your speedboat will take you back to Ho Chi Minh City, arriving in the early afternoon. The remaining time is yours to unwind at your own pace.
