Highlights

Our Vietnam military tours start from Ho Chi Minh City with …. a drive to Vung Tau, visiting battle sites such as the Long Tan Cross, the Horseshoe and the Long Phuoc Tunnels en-route, and after lunch, Nui Dat (SAS Hill) and the Ba Ria Orphanage.
We always try to find some of the local Vietnam veterans who fought in the remarkable battle of Long Tan. Although extensively documented by the survivors of Australia’s heaviest engagement of the war, little is known of the Viet Cong’s actions and ultimate defeat at the hands of a heavily outnumbered opponent.
Our clients find that bringing the former protagonists together with a good interpreter and plenty of rice wine is an unforgettable experience for both sides! The Long Tan – Nui Dat Battle Field
 

Itinerary

Start: 8.00 AM – Return: 16:30 PM

Long Tan is deeply etched into ANZAC folklore. In the late afternoon of August 18, 1966, D Company, 6 RAR – despite being heavily outnumbered – fought off a large Viet Cong assault of regimental strength during a grueling three-hour battle.

The first stop on this full-day tour is the former site of Australia’s Nui Dat Task Force Base (Nui Dat SAS Hill). The occupation of Nui Dat required the removal of all inhabitants from within a 4 kilometer radius of the base, therefore the people of Long Tan and Long Phuoc villages were forcibly resettled. Little remains of this military camp today except the columns of the main gate. The former runway is now a street in the local village, and the old helipad is now a soccer field.

Afterward, drive past the location of Horseshoe FSB (access is not permitted due to the continued presence of land mines) to the Discourtesy Rubber Plantation. Visit the Long Tan Cross Memorial, a focal point for remembrance, before continuing on to the Long Phuoc Tunnels. Like other tunnels systems found in Vietnam the Long Phuoc Tunnels included meeting areas, first aid stations, and fighting pits. We then travel to Ba Ria for lunch, before returning to Ho Chi Minh City.
