Scooter Saigon Tours specializes in offering Private transfer to Cu Chi Ben Duoc Tunnels. From Ho Chi Minh to Cu Chi Tunnels by private car is about 80 Km. It will take you about 1.5 – 2 hours with a private driver.
The Cu Chi tunnels are underground tunnel networks primarily used by North Vietnamese guerilla fighters during the American conflict. Despite not being created during the American conflict, anti-colonial fighters began using tunnels against the French as early as the 1880s, giving local fighters a crucial advantage. The tunnels are now used as a tourist destination where visitors can learn more about Vietnamese history and also have some fun. So what makes Ben Duoc so significant?
Ben Duoc site is entirely different from Ben Dinh site. The “less touristy” of the two Cu Chi tunnels, Ben Duoc is located 15 kilometers farther from Saigon than Ben Dinh. Visitors can enjoy a much more peaceful experience and get a more genuine sense of Vietnam because there aren’t busloads of tourists everywhere. The Ben Duoc site is unquestionably genuine because it contains original Cu Chi tunnels. Due to the absence of other tourists, you can slowly make your way through the tunnel system.
We know that there are many ways to get to Ben Duoc site: by bus, by car, by taxi, by motorbike, by speedboat, by jeep, by bicycle,… However, the most popular way is private car which is more comfortable and flexible. Going by bus is not a very good choice for foreigners because bus system in Vietnam is not as good as in many developed countries. A taxi from Saigon center to Ben Dinh costs as much as a private transfer by car. But you do not know who is your taxi driver and how the taxi is. We promise to arrange a modern car and an experienced driver who has been on many trips to Cu Chi Tunnels.

The advantages of the Ben Duoc Tunnel over the Ben Dinh Tunnel
You will undoubtedly be amazed by the Ben Duoc Tunnel’s confined and challenging subterranean spaces.
It’s not surprising that Ben Dinh site is the more popular of the tourist destinations. The shorter travelling distance, and more over, the tunnel system in Ben Dinh site was reconstructed and made to be wider with the intention of attracting a large number of visitors and making it easier for big people to move inside. If your goal is not going to know what Cu Chi Tunnels is and visit this must-do tourist attraction in Saigon, but to learn more about the history and structure of the tunnels, Ben Duoc is a better choice
At Ben Duoc, you will be able to experience the Vietnam War in its most special way, learn how difficult living in the claustrophobic tunnels can be, and test your ability to persevere in the face of adversity. I heartily endorse Ben Duoc Tunnel as a must-see location for an accurate grasp of the hardships of warfare.
Five times bigger
Ben Duoc Tunnel with the area of 100 hectares is five times as big as Ben Dinh Tunnel, which only covers 17 hectares. The second one lets you explore longer and in a more complicated underground system, giving you the excitement you want. Since Ben Dinh was where many fights took place and was often destroyed by enemy attacks, parts of it had to be rebuilt so that tourists could see them. On the other hand, Ben Duoc was where plans and strategies were made, so you can expect to see rooms where intelligence work was done and living areas where most daily activities took place.
