Our flight arrives at Hong Kong where
we board a connecting fl ight to Hanoi,
the capital city of Vietnam. For 1000
years, Vietnam existed under Chinese
control before gaining independence in
938 AD. Successive dynasties ruled the
country until the mid 19th century when
Vietnam was colonized by the French.
Once again, the people fought for their
freedom and eventually prevailed in
1945. Today, Vietnamese culture still
exhibits much French influence. Upon
arrival to Hanoi we’re met and transferred
to our deluxe accommodations. Dinner is
served at the hotel this evening.

Take an excursion to the famous Cu Chi
Tunnels, an important base during the
War because of its strategic location. The
Vietcong built an elaborate 200km long
network of tunnels connecting command
posts, hospitals, shelters and weapons
factories. Dug of hard laterite by hand tools
without the use of cement, this amazing
network of tunnels was never discovered by
their enemies. The afternoon is free for us to
explore Saigon at our own pace.
