Beschrijving

Step into history at Long Tan and Nui Dat, one of the most significant battles for Australian soldiers. Visit the memorial, hear powerful stories, and gain a deeper understanding of the Vietnam War.
Start your day with pickup from your hotel in Ho Chi Minh City and leave the busy streets behind as you head to the quieter countryside of Ba Ria–Vung Tau.

Drive through rubber plantations that once played an important role during the war, before arriving at Long Tan Battlefield.

Here, your guide will walk you through the events of the Battle of Long Tan in 1966, sharing stories from both sides. Spend some time at the Long Tan Cross Memorial to pay your respects and take in the significance of the site.

Continue on to Nui Dat, the former base of Australian forces. While not much remains today, your guide will help you picture how the base once operated.

Next, visit the Long Phuoc Tunnels and explore part of the underground network used during the war.

After the morning visits, stop for a relaxed lunch at a local restaurant, where you can enjoy authentic Vietnamese dishes before heading back to the city.

Sit back and relax on the return journey to Ho Chi Minh City, arriving in the afternoon with a deeper understanding of Vietnam’s history.
