1 Day DMZ tour
Leaving from Hue we ride north along highway 1 to Quang Tri town just south of the DMZ. We visit Long Hung Church and Quang Tri old Citadel, the site of a battle in 1972 between North and South Vietnam known as the "Battle of 81 days and nights".
Next we will take you to the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), where you will see Hien Luong Bridge, Ben Hai River and the DMZ museum. After the historical sites of the DMZ, we will take you to the Vinh Moc tunnels. After a well deserved lunch break, you can visit the museum before venturing down into the maze like tunnel system.
Between 1966 and 1972 the US Army dropped over 9,000 tons of bombs in this area (that's an average of 7 tons of bombs per person). To survive the local people built a network of tunnels and moved below ground. The tunnels stretch nearly 2,000m over 3 levels and are 30 meters below ground at their deepest.
In the afternoon we will drive along the countryside and the coast, where you can see rice paddies, farms, magnificent ocean views and much more. Here we stop on and off, when you like to take a photo, have a swim in the ocean or just wants to stretch your legs for a bit.
Around 5PM we will enter Hue again, and the driver will drop you off at your hotel, or other preferred location.
