Ky Anh Tunnel
The Ky Anh Tunnels are among the most remarkable hand-dug tunnel systems created by the Vietnamese during the war. Constructed between 1965 and 1967, this underground network served as a vital shelter for the Viet Cong during some of the most intense periods of conflict.
On this immersive tour, our knowledgeable local guide will lead you through sections of the original tunnels. You’ll hear fascinating stories, meet locals who helped dig the tunnels, and gain a deeper understanding of the resilience and ingenuity of the Vietnamese people during wartime.
The journey doesn’t end underground—you’ll also explore some of the most peaceful coastal villages in Central Vietnam, offering a striking contrast between the scars of the past and the serenity of today.

The Vietnam's Heroic Mother Statue
The Vietnamese Heroic Mother Monument
Located on Cam Mountain in Tam Ky, this monumental statue honors the extraordinary sacrifices of Vietnamese mothers during wartime. It was inspired by Nguyen Thi Thu, a local mother whose story embodies the spirit of resilience and patriotism—she lost nine sons, one son-in-law, and two grandchildren, all of whom gave their lives for the country’s independence and freedom.
During your visit, our guide will share moving stories about Mother Thu—her courage, her sacrifice, and the powerful reason she sent all her loved ones to defend Vietnam. It’s not just a monument—it’s a tribute to the strength of motherhood and the soul of a nation.

My Lai Massacre - Son My Memorial
The Mỹ Lai Massacre was one of the most tragic war crimes committed by U.S. troops during the Vietnam War. On March 16, 1968, over 500 unarmed civilians—mostly women, children, and the elderly—were brutally killed in Sơn Mỹ village, Quảng Ngãi province.
On this deeply moving tour, our local guide will lead you through the memorial site and museum, where powerful exhibits and original color photographs taken on that fateful morning bring the horrors of the event to life. You’ll have the chance to offer incense or flowers at the worship temple, honoring the memory of the 504 innocent victims.
Next, walk through the quiet village nearby, where heartbreaking stories are still remembered by the local people. Step by step, you’ll witness remnants of destroyed homes, preserved foundations, and the mass graves where many victims were laid to rest.
This experience is not only a lesson in history, but also a reminder of the resilience of the human spirit and the importance of peace.
