See the sights, sounds and smells of this historic region by choosing one or more of the experiences below.
HO CHI MINH CITY TOUR
Half day tour from Ho Chi Minh City £11 per adult, £6 per child (2-12 years) An exciting and informative half day tour to witness and learn about the past, present and future of this amazing city. Visit the richly decorated 19th Century Thien Hau Pagoda and Cho Lon, Ho Chi Minh City's Chinatown and one of the oldest and most mysterious parts of the city. The highlight for many is the History Museum. This unassuming building houses a collection of artifacts detailing over 2,000 years of Vietnamese history and helps put present day Ho Chi Minh City into historical perspective.
MEKONG DELTA
Full day tour from Ho Chi Minh City with lunch £30 per adult, £15 per child (2-12 years) Enjoy a scenic day out with an abundance of photo opportunities. My Tho is a prosperous town of 170,000 inhabitants nestled within the Mekong Delta and famed for its exuberant orchards and panoramas of never ending rice fields. Board a cruiser for a ride on the Mekong River, stopping off en route at the Vinh Trang Pagoda. Following a filling lunch, the tour continues to a local snake farm before heading back to your hotel.
MEKONG DELTA CYCLING
Private four day tour from Ho Chi Minh City £365 per person based on 2 adults. Group tours departing Tuesdays £220 Single supplement on request Includes all transfers, simple accommodation, bike hire, guide and support, all meals from lunch on Day 1 to lunch on Day 4.
DAY 1
Transfer out of Ho Chi Minh City to Cay Lay and ride along scenic back roads to Cai Be. Here you will stay as guests in a typical Mekong Delta homestay (shared facilities).
DAY 2
From Vinh Long enjoy a boat journey out to one of the Mekong islands where you can cycle through the narrow country lanes and dirt tracks passing tiny orchards and little villages. Continue to the Khmer town of Tra Vinh and stay in a simple local hotel.
CU CHI TUNNELS TOUR
Half day tour from Ho Chi Minh City £19 per adult, £10 per child (2-12 years) Northwest of Ho Chi Minh City stands an amazing complex of tunnels and passageways that formed an underground city of sleeping quarters, armourments, kitchens and command centres. Dug deep to remain hidden from US soldiers and avoid destruction from US bombing in what the Vietnamese call `The American War', at its peak it housed up to 10,000 people. Crawl along the serpentine passageways, descend deep into the tunnel complex and search for the elusive hidden trap door. An enriching, educating half day tour that highlights the resilience and ingenuity of the Vietnamese in times of intense hardship.
