Tuk-Tuk and Boat Trips Around the World: 5 to Book

1.CuChi Tunnels&Mekong Delta-Boat,TukTuk,Coconut Village SmallGroup

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 3,113 reviews · from $32Our pick

Pack Vietnam’s wartime past and river life into one 11-hour day. Visit the Cu Chi Tunnels, crawl through a passage, ride motorboats and sampans near My Tho, travel by tuk-tuk or electric car, eat Vietnamese lunch, and hear traditional music. Guides such as Xem, Jackie, Lockie, and Tinh are praised for lively storytelling.

“The tunnels are very tight. But I’m glad I tried the old entrance and went through the tunnel. There are exits every 20 meters so if you can handle the claustrophobic feeling that long, you can go for it. Note they do stop at several cultural/ shopping sites, but no pressure.”
