Tour Itinerary

Day 1: Hochiminh City arrival (-)

Arrival in Hochiminh City, our driver will pick you up and take you to hotel in the center.

Day 2: Hochiminh city & Cuchi tunnels tour (B,L)

AM: HCM City 
We start the trip by visiting Notre Dame Cathedral, the historic Central Post Office, followed by exploring the Reunification Palace, and the remarkable site of the War Remnants Museum.

PM: Cu Chi Tunnels
Located 60km from HCMC, Cu Chi is now a popular spot for both Vietnamese & foreign tourists - the network of over 200km of tunnels became legendary when they played a vital role in the War. In their heyday, the tunnels were functioning underground cities including numerous trap doors, specially constructed living areas, storage facilities, weapons factories, field hospitals, command centers & kitchens.
Today, ducks and water buffalos happily co-exist in the rivers along the side of the road. However, the peaceful rural rice paddy scenery belies the area’s violent history. Visitors will find it hard to imagine the destruction, damage & defoliation over this whole area, caused by bombing and mines. There is plenty of evidence of the fierce battle that took place here during the 1960s when Cu Chi was a "Free Target Zone".
Come back to Hochiminh City.

Day 3: HCMC- Mekong delta (My Tho – Ben Tre) (B,L)

Leave Ho Chi Minh city, enjoy the scenic journey along the National Highway bordered by green rice fields. On arrived at My Tho, visit Vinh Trang pagoda, take a leisurely boat ride along the river, view stilt houses, fruit plantations and fishing villages along the river bank. Proceed to Tortoise islet, have lunch in the orchard garden. Then a boat ride to An Khanh – a less touristy attraction in Ben Tre, enjoy cruising on a hand-rowed sampan under the shade of the water coconut trees along natural canals, then enjoy seasonal fruit & honey tea to the sound of "Southern Vietnamese folk music", performed by the locals. Visit a family business which epitomizes the idyllic rural lifestyle, taste delicious coconut candy & observe the pastoral life as you roam through fruit plantations and villages.  Proceed to Can Tho. Overnight in the hotel. Free time to visit bustling Can Tho market.

My first visit to Vietnam was exceptional due to the personal attention I received from the staff at Starlight Travel From my first email inquiry to my last goodbye with my guide in Saigon has been nothing short of exemplary. I would definitely recommend Starlight Travel to anyone interested in a stress free adventure and let them arrange the transportation, accommodations and places to explore.

I just had the best 2.5 weeks travelling by myself around Vietnam and Cambodia and it was all thanks to the organisation and dedication of Starlight .Adam was brilliant at curating my itinerary based on what I knew I wanted to do and the things I enjoy doing. It was the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation. I’ve learnt so much about the history and culture of Vietnam and Cambodia thanks to the knowledgeable guides and enjoyed the mix of group tours and solo tour guides while I traveled around. 6 out of 5 stars! 🌟
