Hoi An/Da Nang: Ky Anh Tunnels & Champa Towers Tour

Discover the history of the Vietnam War and the Champa Kingdom on a full-day tour from Hoi An or Da Nang. Explore the Ky Anh Tunnels, visit a military base, and see the Champa Towers.
Begin your day with a convenient pickup from your hotel in Hoi An or Da Nang. As you drive, listen to a brief introduction to Vietnam War history and the Champa civilization.

Make your first stop at a military base or war weapons exhibition in the Da Nang area. Spend 60–75 minutes exploring tanks, artillery, aircraft, bomb carriers, guns, and torpedoes. Learn about how Vietnamese guerrilla forces fought a technologically superior army, war strategies, survival tactics, and local resistance stories.

Next, enjoy a scenic drive to Ky Anh Village, passing through green rice fields, coastal sandy landscapes, and quiet rural villages. Stop for photos and a short village walk if desired.

Arrive at the Ky Anh Tunnel system, which is 32 km long and was built in 1965. Descend underground with a local guide and explore living quarters, a field hospital, weapon storage, kitchens, and meeting rooms. Crawl through selected safe tunnel sections and experience real tunnel conditions (optional for guests).

Enjoy a simple guerrilla-style meal underground, consisting of sticky rice wrapped in green banana leaves. Learn how soldiers cooked without smoke.

After lunch, take a 45-minute walk through Thach Tan Village. Visit 300-year-old mysterious temples and sites that survived American tank attacks. Hear local spiritual legends and wartime stories, and watch traditional mat weaving by villagers.

Finally, explore the late 11th-century Champa towers at Chien Dan. Admire Khmer-influenced stone carvings and friezes, and learn about the Champa Kingdom (2nd–17th century), Hindu beliefs, and the lost civilization. Enjoy the quiet, non-touristy atmosphere for photos and reflection.

End your day with a relaxing drive back to Hoi An or Da Nang, arriving around 6:00 PM.
