A full day cycling to Cu Chi tunnel

Cycling to Cu Chi tunnel. This is the site of the Cu Chi tunnels, one of the most famous battlegrounds of the Vietnam War. Today it is one of the country's prime tourist attractions. Sometimes, these spots seem to be memorials to wartime propaganda as much as to the war itself. Following a man in green fatigues, the tourists arrive at an open-sided hut, where the women in black show them to their seats. There on a big-screen television set, the Vietnam War plays on: B-52's drop strings of bombs, to destroy its tunnel. Vietnam Bike Tours

Pick up at your hotel and transfer by van for an hour to rural Cu Chi. Start to bike on a dirt track through villages where farmers of Cu Chi go about their daily lives, making bamboo baskets, bamboo furniture, and collecting rubber latex. You will also see big family workshops making rice paper.  This land was not only a hiding place, but also fighting and living area for the Viet Cong during the Vietnam War from 1965 to 1975. Today, Cu Chi District has become very popular with tourists coming by bus, but not often by bicycle. Biking on country roads and single track trails through villages is the ultimate way to see the "Iron Land", where V.C. lived and fought the US army. Visit tunnels before we have lunch at a local restaurant. In the afternoon, continue biking 20 km through rubber plantations. Then transfer back to Saigon by van. End of tour.
