Great experience
I booked this 2-day tour to make the most of my short time in Vietnam and honestly, it was such a good decision. First day was all about the Cu Chi Tunnels and the city – crawling through those tunnels was insane, can’t imagine living down there. The city tour after lunch was chill too, got to see some famous spots and hear interesting stories from our guide. Second day in the Mekong Delta was my favourite. Loved being out on the water, visiting small workshops, riding the xe loi around the village, and just seeing a totally different side of Vietnam. The little boat ride under the coconut palms was so peaceful. Overall, it was two packed days but I didn’t feel rushed at all. Everything was organised well and I felt like I got to see so much in a short time. Would recommend if you want a good mix of history, culture, and countryside.
Response from the operator: Dear Kieu O, Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a detailed review. We’re really happy to hear that the 2-day tour helped you make the most of your time in Vietnam and that it turned out to be a great choice. It’s great to know you enjoyed the contrast between the historical sites at Cu Chi, the city highlights, and the peaceful countryside of the Mekong Delta. We’re especially glad the second day stood out for you and that the pace felt well balanced without being rushed. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back for another journey in Vietnam.

Yes
Cu Chi is an wonderful destination for historical experiment. I like it. Once I was a student in high school, I had an opportunity to travel there with my class. I was encouraged a lot when I first saw the historic stories which were written on the rocks. I witnessed many reallistic vehicles, weapons,... Through those experience, I could feel the cruelty of war, I felt like I could share the pain with the great Vietnamese soldiers. Because of their sacrifice, I can live in peace today. I'm always sincerely grateful and proud of being a son of Vietnam!
Response from the operator: Dear Nam, Thank you so much for sharing your meaningful thoughts and feelings about your visit to Cu Chi. We’re glad this tour brought back powerful memories. It’s true – being there in person really helps us understand the sacrifices and resilience of those who lived through the war. We’re deeply touched by your words about feeling grateful and proud. That is exactly why we want to share these historical sites with everyone – to remember, honour, and reflect. We wish you all the best and hope to see you on another journey in the future.

Great, so many new experiences!!! stress-free and super informative
We did this 2-day tour as a family of four and honestly, it was such a good decision. The whole trip felt well organised and stress-free. On the first day, we visited the Cu Chi Tunnels. I’ve read about them before but seeing them in real life and actually going down inside was an eye-opener. The stories about how people lived there were intense but so interesting. The second day at the Mekong Delta was my favourite. Riding in a small boat through the coconut palm canals felt like something out of a movie. We visited a local house that made coconut candy – tasted so good I bought a bunch to take home. Lunch by the river was simple but fresh and delicious. I also enjoyed just cruising along the river and seeing how people live along the banks. What I liked most about this tour was that it wasn’t rushed. We had time to actually enjoy each place without feeling like we were being herded around. Would recommend this to anyone wanting to see both the history side and the chill countryside side of Vietnam in one go.
Response from the operator: Dear Nozomi T, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. We’re so happy to hear that your family enjoyed the 2-day Cu Chi – City – Mekong Delta tour. It really is a great combination to understand both the history and the peaceful countryside side of Vietnam. The Cu Chi Tunnels are indeed eye-opening – it’s always humbling to see how people survived and fought during such a difficult time. And we totally agree, cruising through the coconut palm canals in Ben Tre feels like stepping into another world. We hope to see you and your family back in Vietnam for more adventures in the future!

Good trip
This was an amazing tour. I feel like I got to experience almost all of Southern Vietnam in just two days—from culture and history to local food. We started early in the morning from Ho Chi Minh City and headed to the Cu Chi Tunnels. After a few hours’ drive, we arrived and began exploring. I was deeply moved while watching the documentary and hearing stories about how Vietnamese people fought and survived during the war in such cramped underground tunnels. I have so much respect for their resilience. I also tried shooting an AK47 and M16 at the range—such a unique and exciting experience. If you visit Cu Chi, I highly recommend trying it. At noon, we returned to Ho Chi Minh City for lunch. The meal was delicious—Vietnamese food never fails to impress me. In the afternoon, we explored many of the city’s famous landmarks, like the Opera House and Ho Chi Minh City Hall along Nguyen Hue walking street. We visited Notre Dame Cathedral and the Saigon Post Office—two beautiful examples of old Saigon architecture. We also stopped by the Reunification Palace and the War Remnants Museum, which holds an incredible collection of war-related photos, documents, and equipment. The Jade Emperor Pagoda was also very impressive. We ended the day by visiting a local market. I took so many beautiful photos—my phone storage was almost full! The next day, we traveled to Ben Tre in the Mekong Delta. We visited a small brick factory and a coconut candy workshop—where I got to taste the candy (so good!) and even bought some to bring home as gifts. The local mat-weaving house also left a strong impression on me. One of the highlights was riding a xe lôi (similar to a tuk tuk) around the peaceful village. We had a tasty riverside lunch before biking through the countryside and taking a boat ride along the coconut palm-lined canals. In short, this tour was wonderful. In just two days, I learned and experienced so much. Every part of the trip was memorable. I will never forget this journey. Highly, highly recommend this tour!
Response from the operator: Dear Thu A, Thank you so much for your heartfelt and detailed review! We’re truly happy to hear that you had such a meaningful experience exploring both the historical and cultural sides of Southern Vietnam. Your reflections on Cu Chi Tunnels and the resilience of the Vietnamese people are deeply appreciated—it’s a powerful part of our history, and we’re glad it left an impact. And it sounds like you made the most of your time in Ho Chi Minh City too. We’re also glad to know the Mekong Delta day was just as special—from the coconut candy to the peaceful xe lôi ride and riverside lunch. It’s wonderful to hear that the slower, more local pace of life in Ben Tre offered a nice contrast to the city. We hope your memories from this journey stay with you for a long time, and that we’ll get the chance to welcome you back for more Vietnam experiences someday!

Why this scores 68
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
2-Day Small Group Cu Chi Tunnels, City Tour and Mekong Delta: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ho Chi Minh City.
How much does 2-Day Small Group Cu Chi Tunnels, City Tour and Mekong Delta cost?
+
Prices start at $158 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Ho Chi Minh City usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 2-Day Small Group Cu Chi Tunnels, City Tour and Mekong Delta take?
+
Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Ho Chi Minh City is not rushed.
Is 2-Day Small Group Cu Chi Tunnels, City Tour and Mekong Delta worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 13 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Ho Chi Minh City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 2-Day Small Group Cu Chi Tunnels, City Tour and Mekong Delta?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 2-Day Small Group Cu Chi Tunnels, City Tour and Mekong Delta suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 2-Day Small Group Cu Chi Tunnels, City Tour and Mekong Delta?
+
Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Ho Chi Minh City can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Ho Chi Minh City and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 2-Day Small Group Cu Chi Tunnels, City Tour and Mekong Delta start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Ho Chi Minh City within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Ho Chi Minh City?
+
On Outty we rank every Ho Chi Minh City experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Adventure Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta Tour From HCM, Cu Chi Tunnels Small-Group Tour: Vietnam War Underground Network, Cu Chi underground tour - Learn Vietnam war with others. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Ho Chi Minh City?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Ho Chi Minh City?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
