Quang Tri Citadel

- 07h30: Our guide and car will pick you up at your hotel in Hue central, then ready to start the DMZ Tour Hue. Visiting places: - Horror Highway: the horrible carnage on Vietnam Highway 1. Thousands of civilians, mostly the elders, women, children, and scores of soldiers were killed by artillery and infantry weapons in hours of shooting. - Long Hung Church: one of the very few existing buildings remains in Quang Tri town during “Fire Summer” or Eastern Offensive in 1972. It is a National Relic in the town of Quang Tri Vietnam – BA5453. - Quang Tri Ancient Citadel: is seen as an eye-witness of fierce battles during the anti-American resistance war in 1972. During the 81-day fighting, the citadel was almost destroyed by thousands of tons of bombs released by the US army. Nowadays, the citadel becomes a place to mark immortal victories of the Vietnamese army and people and to educate youths about the nation’s revolutionary tradition and its patriotism.

Khe Sanh Combat Base

- Continue the journey, we stop to visit: - Dakrong Bridge: the bridge was considered the beginning of the Ho Chi Minh Trail network, and during many years of Vietnam War, this access point was hotly contested. The Dakrong Bridge fell many times. Now it’s a grand suspension bridge, a proud thumbed nose as if to say, “You can’t knock down my bridge anymore.” - On the way, tourists also have chances to meet Paco minority village. - Ta Con Airport: now is the Khe Sanh Combat Base Museum, contains a boneyard of several captured U.S. tanks and aircraft destroyed during the Battle of Khe Sanh. According to the official accounts provided by the museum, 197 U.S. planes were shot down or captured during the 170-day battle. - Free snacks. Enjoy the local Khe Sanh coffee (own expense).

If you’re a Vietnam War...

If you’re a Vietnam War you must experience this tour. I had a great time conversing with our guide Nam. He was very friendly and a wealth of information about the war and the places that we visited. I think Khe Shan was my favorite. You could almost feel the bullets flying and the bombs bursting.
Fairly superficial - didn't add much to what we knew from books & podcasts already

We were really excited for the tour, it was going to be the highlight at half-time of our trip. We are both really interested in history and of course we've read lots about Vietnam. But we had no doubt that this tour would add significant insights that, as Europeans, we couldn't just read up on. Sadly, the tour was rather superficial: it started great with an intro to the chronology of the 1st and 2nd Indochina Wars. But it didn't really get any more thorough than that. The places we visited didn't really add much to our knowledge. The objects at the museums weren't explained to us and they didn't have any helpful commentary on the signs. We were given 20-30 min to explore the museums and memorials ourselves but of course we didn't have the knowledge to really make the most of it. We were especially hoping to hear more about the human side of the story. Dates, battle plans and pictures are easy to look up nowadays, but stories about life during the resistance, war and the aftermath would have been an invaluable addition. Hearing the Vietnamese perspective on modern history was one of the reasons why we'd come here to begin with. Especially when touring the tunnels, which were obviously interesting in themselves, more background information about life down there would have helped. Even in the tunnels, the tone was kept light and chatty and superficial. In general, the narrative was always positive: Losses were symbols of bravery, victories were never against any enemy, just all very rosy and positive. Extra questions about history, modern understanding of the past, the maintenance of the memorial sites weren't really answered (which might have been a language issue, though). The rides were so lengthy (between 60-70% of the trip) and could have been used for further explanations too. Our guide chatted to the participants in the front of the car, but there was no official tour-stuff going on. In general, our guide was friendly and well prepared. Beyond the official speaking segments, he wasn't that approachable though. Questions were answered in a friendly but very quick manner. At the sites and at lunch, he and two of his colleagues (?) sat at a separate table, having Vietnamese food and speaking Vietnamese to each other while we had pretty boring rice and tofu/pork. One last point: the roads are rough and the driving is even rougher. We've gotten used to not having seat belts, but one of us was sitting at the very back, facing the aisle. So at any sharp brake, we would have gone flying down the aisle, through the wind shield? We rearranged the seats ourselves to feel safer. Altogether, we were just disappointed because our expectations were high after reading all the positive reviews.
Tour done very well,...

As an American I was eager to learn more about the history and I felt the tour did just that. It is a lot of driving so be aware of that, but the sites played important roles and they keep the car nice and chilled between each site. Guide had excellent English and historical knowledge
