    My trip to HO CHI MINH CITY

    We had a wonderful experience on the Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta tour, thanks to our excellent tour guide, Phuc Hoang Alias Pablo, He was friendly, knowledgeable, professional, and very helpful throughout the trip. His explanations about Vietnam’s history, especially the Cu Chi Tunnels and the country’s rich culture and traditions, made the experience truly interesting and memorable. The Mekong Delta tour was equally enjoyable, offering us a beautiful glimpse into local life, traditions, and the natural beauty of Vietnam. Phuc Hoang ensured that everything was well organized and that everyone felt comfortable and welcomed. His positive attitude, patience, and passion for his work made a real difference to our tour. We truly appreciate his hospitality and the wonderful memories he helped us create. Highly recommended! If you are planning to visit the Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta, having Phuc Hoang as your guide will make your experience even more special. Thank you, Phuc Hoang, for an unforgettable day in Vietnam! 🇻🇳🌟 Phuc Hoang alias PABLO

    Fab time with Pablo!

    We had a great time today with Pablo - very sweet, cute and funny chap. He made the entire tour really entertaining and personalised, beyond of course it being extremely informative. I have to say he is one of the best guides I’ve ever travelled with across countries. Wishing the best of successes to Pablo :)

    Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta Tour - 5 Stars

    We had an amazing day today going to the Cu Chi Tunnels and the Mekong Delta one day tour Both of the experiences was fascinating and engaging and included additional stops along the way to see the lacquer factory, coconut sweet making and a ride on the Sanpan amongst other stops. The lunch stop included great food and more than enough to keep us full for the day A very special mention to our tour guide Pablo who did an amazing job at telling us everything on each step of the day and for being so fun and keeping us smiling despite it being a very wet day. I recommend the tour to anyone visiting Vietnam and wanting to find out more about this beautiful country.

    Discovering Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta with Ronald

    Amazing local experience while visiting Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta with the one and only - Ronald 😀 Great sense of humor, very informative and tourist-friendly attitude packed with lots of helpful tips for those who are visiting Vietnam for a very first time. Ronald did his best to show us (a group of 3) very interesting facts about Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta. I had a total blast spending time with such a professional tour guide here in area around Ho Chi Minh City. I truly learnt a lot about local culture plus had a chance to try delicious local Vietnamese food at the lunch time during this 1-day trip. I would like to recommend this great tourist activity to everyone who is visiting Vietnam for a very first time. The day was packed with attractions for example such as a listening to local live folk music, cruising the boat down the canal by Mekong River, visiting local coconut candy factory, etc. Thank you for making my visit remarkable and unique. I appreciate a lot the time you spent with us. Wishing you all the best and many many more!!!

    Cu Chi Tunnels & Mekong Delta Adventure: Full-Day Small Group: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ho Chi Minh City.

    How much does Cu Chi Tunnels & Mekong Delta Adventure: Full-Day Small Group cost?

    +

    Prices start at $30 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 & Mekong Delta Adventure: Full-Day Small Group take?

    +

    Plan for about 9.7 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 & Mekong Delta Adventure: Full-Day Small Group worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 94 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1,913 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. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Cu Chi Tunnels & Mekong Delta Adventure: Full-Day Small Group?

    +

    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 Cu Chi Tunnels & Mekong Delta Adventure: Full-Day Small Group suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9.7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Cu Chi Tunnels & Mekong Delta Adventure: Full-Day Small Group?

    +

    Around 670 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 9.7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Cu Chi Tunnels & Mekong Delta Adventure: Full-Day Small Group 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 Cai Be Mekong Delta Tour: Cooking Class, Cycling & Craft Villages, Adventure Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta Tour From HCM, Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta 1 Day Tour With Small Group. 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.

    What is included in Cu Chi Tunnels & Mekong Delta Adventure: Full-Day Small Group?

    +

    Included: Full service, ticket, boat, cruises, BBQ lunch Vietnamese food... Not included: All other services not mentioned in the above program. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Cu Chi Tunnels & Mekong Delta Adventure: Full-Day Small Group include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 758 listed pickup locations in and around Ho Chi Minh City. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Cu Chi Tunnels & Mekong Delta Adventure: Full-Day Small Group offered in?

    +

    It is offered in Vietnamese and English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Cu Chi Tunnels & Mekong Delta Adventure: Full-Day Small Group?

    +

    Is Cu Chi Tunnels & Mekong Delta Adventure: Full-Day Small Group wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +
