This day tour from Ho Chi Minh City visits Ba Den Mountain in Tay Ninh, a Cao Dai temple and the Cu Chi Tunnels in one day. At Ba Den Mountain (986 m), the highest peak in southern Vietnam, you can take the cable car to the summit to see a giant Guanyin statue and the Happy Buddha, and at the Cao Dai temple you can watch the faithful's noon prayer ceremony. At the Cu Chi Tunnels, you visit the quieter Ben Duoc area instead of busy Ben Dinh and explore tunnels once used as a revolutionary headquarters. A local lunch, snacks and bottled water are included.

At 7:00 AM, you are picked up from your hotel in Districts 1, 3 or 4 and drive about 2.5 hours northwest to Tay Ninh Province. Visit Ba Den Mountain, a Cao Dai temple and the Cu Chi Tunnels in one day, experiencing nature, religion and wartime history together. Along the way, your guide shares the stories of each place.

From 9:30 to 11:30 AM, visit Ba Den Mountain (986 m), the highest peak in southern Vietnam. Ride the cable car over forests and rice fields to the summit, where you can see a 72 m bronze Guanyin statue and the 36 m Happy Buddha made from more than 6,600 sandstone pieces. There is free time to walk and enjoy the panoramic views. Cable car tickets are not included in the base price; without a ticket, you wait for the group at the foot of the mountain.

At noon, visit the colorful temple of Cao Dai, a faith that unites Buddhism, Christianity, Taoism and Confucianism. Under the symbolic Divine Eye, watch the faithful in colorful robes chant during the noon prayer ceremony. Then, from 12:45 PM, enjoy a Vietnamese lunch and rest at a local restaurant.

From 3:00 to 4:30 PM, visit the Ben Duoc area of the Cu Chi Tunnels, less crowded than Ben Dinh. Once a revolutionary headquarters during the war, it lets you see hand-dug tunnels, secret entrances, ventilation shafts, underground kitchens and meeting rooms. You can crawl through a short tunnel section or explore above ground, and you also stop at the Ben Duoc Memorial Temple. In Cu Chi, taste boiled tapioca and local tea, then return to Ho Chi Minh City around 6-7 PM.
