Cu Chi Tunnels - A visit to the Cu Chi tunnels is most interesting. To get there one has to drive 2 hours north west from central Saigon. The tunnels site has to cope with large crowds every day so groups of tourists with their guides are constantly moving between the various stops at the site. There is constant gunfire to be heard within the forest, which lends more realism to what it must have been like here during the war. The gunfire is from the shooting range where tourists can fire war era weapons. The highlight of the visit is the section of tunnel which can be entered. This is not for the faint-hearted. It is hot and claustrophobic in the tunnel, but there are bail-out tunnels every 20 metres or so. Visiting Cu Chi tunnels is a thought provoking experience.
