Your local guides do more than lead you to former battlefield locations. They accompany you through the landscape with context and care — helping you understand not only where events unfolded, but why they mattered. As you stand at Long Tan Cross or walk the grounds of Nui Dat, your guide connects the terrain to the human stories behind it — the young soldiers who served here, the local communities who lived through the conflict, and the wider circumstances that shaped that moment in history. The experience becomes less about dates and positions, and more about perspective, memory and meaningful connection to place.

La bataille de Long Tan
Upon arrival in Ba Ria, continue a short distance to the former base of the 1st Australian Task Force at Nui Dat, operational between 1966 and 1971. Although the area has since returned to agricultural use, key locations can still be identified, including SAS Hill and former artillery positions. Your guide will provide historical context on the Australian and New Zealand presence in former Phuoc Tuy Province, explaining the strategic significance of Nui Dat during the conflict.
Proceed to the Long Tan Cross, located within a rubber plantation near the site of the Battle of Long Tan (18 August 1966). Here, 18 Australian soldiers lost their lives during one of the most significant engagements involving Australian forces in Vietnam. The current memorial cross, installed with Vietnamese approval in 1986, serves as a place of quiet remembrance for many visiting families, particularly around ANZAC Day.
