What you can expect

The tour guide will pick up at your hotel at 0730 and start the trip. Enjoy the beauty scenery along the road. We will stop at Vung Tau to visit an orphanage and pick up your travel permit to the sites. Then we will be on road to Long Tan. Visit the Long Tan Memorial Cross - LTC, which is located in Ba Ria-Vung Tau Province approximately 110 km east of Ho Chi Minh City, marks the site of the Battle of Long Tan, which took place on 18 August 1966, was Australia's single most costly engagement of the Vietnam War, with the loss of 18 Australian soldiers. Continue on with exploration of the Long Phuoc Tunnels. The village of Long Phuoc had an extensive system of tunnels which linked the village to the jungle areas to its north east. Like other tunnels systems found in Vietnam, they included meeting areas, first aid stations, and fighting pits. American units clearing the area for the establishment of the Australian base sustained heavy casualties when they entered the village and came under fire from the tunnel system's fighting pits.

After lunch, enjoy the trip to Nui Dat SS Hill. In 1966, when the area was part of the then Phuoc Tuy Province it was the location of a prominent Australian military base in South Vietnam during the Vietnam War. The site was chosen by Lieutenant General John Wilton in 1966 and was built mainly by men from the 6th Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment. Visit Ming Dam, the place that used to be “The Secret Zone” in the past. Come back to Ho Chi Minh City with a drop off at hotel at around 1630.
