Private tour Dong Hoi Vinh Moc tunnel Hue (1D)
In the morning, we will depart from Dong Hoi hotel/train station heading South towards Hue city. Not like most of the DMZ tour starting from Hue city, DMZ tour from Dong Hoi will first stop at Vinh Moc tunnel on the South bound way to Hue. At Vinh Moc tunnel, you will have ample time to watch a documentary (if requested), take a look at the museum and then go underground to experience the village underneath with family rooms, maternity room, meeting room, air vent, exits to the sea, …
After Vinh Moc tunnel, we continue onto Hien Luong bridge (AKA DMZ bridge, Freedom bridge) crossing Ben Hai rive right at 17th parallel. Here you will see frontline flagpole, border police memorial, 17th parallel museum and walk across the bridge to see the National Aspiration for Reunification on the southern bank of the Ben Hai river.
Hop on vehicle again, we keep going to Mine Action Visitor Center (if not Saturday, Sunday) – a display of Explosive Remnants of War (ERW) found and collected around the DMZ.

Lunch break in Dong Ha city. Take you time to discover the gastronomical delight of Quang Tri.
After lunch, we will continue to Quang Tri citadel famous for the 81-day fierce battle between North and South Vietnam in blazing summer of 1972. There are thousands of soldiers K.I.A still lying beneath the ground of the citadel’s 4 sq km.
Last stop for the day is a Buddhism school full of bullet holes. It is the last standing survived from the fighting and stands as an embodiment of the bloody battle which the outcome would influence the Paris Peace Accord signed in early 1973.
Upon your request, we can have a bonus stop at La Vang church with a bell tower left standing from 1972 Easter Offensive. This holy place is a pilgrimage site for the Catholic community in Vietnam. There’s a new big and beautiful new church still under construction behind the old church.
Say goodbye to your guide Quang Tri town and our driver will take you to your accommodation in Hue city. Tour ends.
