[Local departure/arrival] 4-day Ho Chi Minh sightseeing tour | Cu Chi Tunnels Cacao Farm and Resort Beach

It's not just about visiting tourist spots. A 4-day premium tour that perfectly balances the "history" and "trends" of the big city of Saigon, the "great nature" of cacao farms and hidden beaches, and the "cultural experience" steeped in tradition. On the first day, we enjoyed dinner at a Michelin-rated French colonial Western-style building, and the next day we went to the Cu Chi Tunnels, which are of overwhelming scale. On the third day, you will enjoy making chocolate at a cacao farm, which has been gaining attention in recent years, and stay at a resort on the luxurious Ho Cham Beach, which has preserved its pristine beauty. On the final day, after venturing through the jungles of the Mekong River, you will dress in Ao Dai and cruise around the city at sunset on Vietnam's famous cyclo. This is the definitive guide to beautiful South Vietnam, with a thorough focus on food selection, transportation comfort, and "every moment that remains in the photo."
