The Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta are two of the top attractions around Ho Chi Minh City—but it’s hard to visit both in one day independently. Combine them into one great day out on this door-to-door tour which starts at the Vietnam War–era fighting tunnels, continues to lunch in My Tho, and finishes with a river cruise, folk music performance, rowing boat trip, and candy workshop tour.
