Pick up at hotels in Ho Chi Minh City at 7:30 AM and depart for the Cu Chi Tunnels.
Upon arrival Ben Duoc Tunnels, a section of the Cu Chi Tunnels network located in the Cu Chi District of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

The tunnels are a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the Vietnamese people, as they were used to shelter and protect soldiers during the Vietnam War.

The tour was a great way to spend a day outside of Ho Chi Minh City. The Ben Duoc Tunnels and Cu Chi Tunnels were a sobering reminder of the Vietnam War, and the Cao Dai Temple was a beautiful and unique spiritual experience. The hike up Ba Den Mountain was a bit challenging but definitely worth it for the panoramic views. The vegan restaurant was a nice surprise, with some delicious and healthy food that was a nice break from the usual heavy Vietnamese cuisine.

Ba Den Mountain offered stunning views and a challenging hike, which was definitely worth it. The vegan restaurant was a great way to end the day, with some delicious food that was a refreshing change from the usual meat-heavy Vietnamese cuisine.
