Cu Chi
it was a nice experience even i felt clautrophobia
via Tripadvisor
Bandya Mama - the tour provides very detailed and vivid information about life underground.
Cu Chi Tunnels is an extremely interesting and meaningful place to visit. There are two main sites, Bến Đình and Bến Dược, managed by Cu Chi and the central government (Sai Gon) respectively. While both sites share the same core tour content, such as the historical documentary film, explanations of tunnel structures, different room types, and the reasons the tunnels were built, the overall experience at each site has some differences.

Unreal place on EARTH
I couldn't imagine there's a place like this on EARTH. I got in and tried to picture what the Vietcong had gone through down here inside these tunnels. I could only move inside the tunnel for 25meters - it's 25 METERS people, and I really had to get out, I couldn't take it anymore. And The Vietcong had been here for what? - decade!

Stay away!
Stay away! I've booked a tunnel tour via The Hideout Hostal Saigon. Take off was scheduled for 1 pm the next. I was there 15 minutes before but they've already left. I've paid in advance. Nessless, to say I didn't get my money back.

Amazing tour- not to be missed out on! Viet you are a star!
Visited the Cu Chi tunnels with this company and had the best, most memorable time. Our tour guide Viet was so charismatic & passionate in telling us the history of the war in Vietnam & gave us detailed accounts of how the Vietnamese people utilised the tunnels during the war. He showed us all of the hidden gems. Thank you so much!

Why this scores 37
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Cu Chi Tunnels - Cao Dai Temple Full Day Tours: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ho Chi Minh City.
How much does Cu Chi Tunnels - Cao Dai Temple Full Day Tours cost?
+
Prices start at $180 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 Cu Chi Tunnels - Cao Dai Temple Full Day Tours take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Cu Chi Tunnels - Cao Dai Temple Full Day Tours worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 37 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.1/5 across 29 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Ho Chi Minh City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Cu Chi Tunnels - Cao Dai Temple Full Day Tours?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Cu Chi Tunnels - Cao Dai Temple Full Day Tours suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Cu Chi Tunnels - Cao Dai Temple Full Day Tours?
+
Around 10 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Cu Chi Tunnels - Cao Dai Temple Full Day Tours 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.
