- Long Phuoc Tunnels - Our first stop will be Long Phuoc Tunnels – one of the lesser-known tunnel systems in the Vietnam War, however, it still contributed a lot to the battlefield.
But why visit this tunnel? It is right below the old Long Phuoc Village, which was destroyed during Operation Enogerra in June 1966 (2 months before the Battle of Long Tan). Now, we begin to walk through the timeline of the famous battle.
- Nui Dat hill - Next, we will visit the old Luscombe Airfield (or Nui Dat Airfield), the runway built for 1ATF – which is now turned into a road inside the town of Long Tan. Here we visit a local grocery store and have some cold beers before visiting the Long Phuoc Abandoned Kindergarten, which was built by Australians to restore the damage of the war.
After that, we will have a short walk through the rubber tree plantation to visit the hidden RAR Memorial Nui Dat. The memorial was built during the last years of the Australian Army in the Vietnam War (1969-1971).
The journey takes us to Nui Dat Base (or Nui Dat 1), where the Australian Army put their base when the Battle of Long Tan took place. Although the area has been turned into a quarry, we can still see some similarities with the old photos from the past, which our tour guides will show you one by one.
After that, we will get in our car to the rubber plantation, where Delta Company 6RAR fought the Battle of Long Tan.
- The Battle of Long Tan - Inside the rubber plantation, our tour guides will show you the Battle Maps to see what happened during the Battle. After finishing, we will go inside the area of Long Tan Cross, the memorial of those who fell in 08/1966. Here you will give them some flowers, and incense to show respect to their sacrifice.
The journey through the past has ended. Now it is time to go to the future – the peace that was built from all of the sacrifice of of those who have fought for their country.
