Top attractions in Ho Chi Minh
Museum
Cu Chi Tunnel
Explore Cu Chi Tunnels, an intricate network of underground tunnels steeped in history, which played a vital role in the Vietnam War. Serving as a base for the Viet Cong troops, these tunnels span over 250 kilometers (155 miles) and include hidden entrances, living quarters, hospitals and storage facilities.
Situated in Cu Chi District, northwest of Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam, the Cu Chi Tunnels were built in the late 1940s during the first Indochina war against the French colonialists, and expanded during the Vietnam War. They were designed with hidden trapdoors, ventilation holes disguised as termite mounds and booby traps to evade enemy troop presence.

The bus tour was generally okay and very worth it, especially considering how affordable it was. However, it was a bit annoying that some passengers kept standing up while the bus was moving. There should be staff monitoring the upper deck for safety.
Also, the seats at the very back are not ideal because the barrier is quite high and blocks the view.

We had an amazing time on the Mekong Delta Day Tour! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized. Our tour guide was exceptional - knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. She kept us informed throughout the trip, made sure we were all accounted for, and even went above and beyond to capture great photos. The tour itself was fantastic, with delicious food, a comfortable boat, and a unique opportunity to experience the local culture. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a memorable experience. Five stars!

The Vibe: "Our guide, Hung, was hilarious and knew the best hidden Banh Mi spot that wasn't on the itinerary."
The Risk: Some reviews mention that while the app is great, the "third-party" local operator can sometimes vary in quality. It’s always smart to check the specific operator's name in the "Package Details" section.

This is the only trip in Vietnam I had with Chinese tour guide. Ku chi Tunnel is a must come attractions that will explain how Vietnamese fight with the US army during Vietnam war. Half day trip is just enough, you have sufficient time to have meal and massage back to the city.

A really interesting and thought-provoking tour! It was very interactive learning about local crafts, specialties, and the history of the area.
Tom, our tour guide, was very helpful and explained everything clearly, with some jokes here and there. The pacing was excellent and he gave very good advice about travelling in Vietnam too!
Highly recommended for an amazing half day experience!

Beautiful cruise and outstanding experience ! Staff are very professional and hands-on. It made my birthday special plus the beautiful scenery we witnessed. There's also a magician on board and live band. Food was great and we ordered additional drinks to make the night extra special.

If you're short on time and don't want to spend too much of it on Chu Chi tunnels, the Mekong Delta relaxing day tour is a great option. They'll pick you up from your place and drop you off near your hotel in Ho Chi Minh. Plus, they give you awesome explanations and guidance about Vietnam's history and all the places you visit. It's super fun and informative.

It was a memorable one hour bus ride around Saigon. I took the hanoi city bus tour last year. The only difference is that the one in Hanoi did provide earphones to listen from the speaker to introduce the various places of attraction around the city. For this bus trip, we had to assume where we were when we passed by these places. However, I prefer this bus ride as the scenery of saigon is modern and beautiful. I will definitely take the night bus ride for my next saigon trip. it's advisable to book the trip via klook as it's cheaper with various vouchers to reduce the price. Just show the bus attendant the QR code when you have boarded the bus, then they will scan it and you are good to go.
