DMZ TOUR HUE - DMZ DELUXE GROUP TOUR 1 DAY VIETNAM

[TOUR ITINERARY]

Morning: 

• 07h30: Our guide and car will pick you up at your hotel in Hue central, then transfer to the Vietnam Demilitarized Zone in Quang Tri province. Ready to start the DMZ Tour Hue.

Visiting places:

• Horror Highway (tour DMZ Quang Tri): May 1, 1972, will never be forgotten by the people of Quang Tri and Thua Thien provinces, not because it is International Labor Day, but because of the tragic carnage on Vietnam Highway 1 – known as the Horror Highway in the DMZ region. Thousands of civilians, including elders, women, children, and soldiers, were killed by artillery and infantry weapons in just hours of shooting. This painful memory remains one of the darkest chapters highlighted in any DMZ Quang Tri tour.

  Long Hung Church (tour DMZ Quang Tri): One of the very few surviving buildings in Quang Tri town during the “Fire Summer” or Eastern Offensive of 1972. Today, Long Hung Church is recognized as a National Relic in Quang Tri, Vietnam (BA5453), and stands as a powerful symbol of resilience. It is a must‑see stop in a DMZ Quang Tri tour, where visitors can witness history and understand the significance of the DMZ sites in Quang Tri.

• Quang Tri Ancient Citadel (tour DMZ Quang Tri): The citadel is regarded as a living witness to the fierce battles during the anti‑American resistance war in 1972. Over 81 days of fighting, the DMZ Quang Tri Citadel was almost destroyed by thousands of tons of bombs dropped by the US army. Today, the Quang Tri Ancient Citadel in the DMZ stands as a sacred place marking the immortal victories of the Vietnamese army and people. It has become a key destination in any DMZ Quang Tri tour, educating younger generations about the nation’s revolutionary tradition, patriotism, and resilience.

• Dakrong Bridge (tour DMZ Quang Tri): The bridge was considered the beginning of the Ho Chi Minh Trail network, and during many years of the Vietnam War, this DMZ access point was hotly contested. The Dakrong Bridge in the DMZ fell many times under heavy attacks. Today, it stands as a grand suspension bridge, proudly symbolizing resilience, as if to say: “You can’t knock down my bridge anymore.” This historic site is a highlight in any DMZ Quang Tri tour, offering visitors a chance to witness both the scars of war and the enduring spirit of Vietnam.

On the way, tourists also have chances to meet Paco minority village.

• Ta Con Airport (tour DMZ Quang Tri): Today known as the Khe Sanh Combat Base Museum in the DMZ, this historic site contains a boneyard of several captured U.S. tanks and aircraft destroyed during the Battle of Khe Sanh. According to official accounts provided by the museum, 197 U.S. planes were shot down or captured during the 170‑day battle in the DMZ region. Visiting Ta Con Airport DMZ Quang Tri is a highlight of any DMZ Quang Tri tour, offering travelers a vivid look into wartime history and the resilience of Vietnam.

Have lunch. After break, our guide and car take you back to the war sites, including:

• Hien Luong Bridge – Ben Hai River (tour DMZ Quang Tri): The Geneva Agreements on Vietnam signed in 1954 divided the country into North and South along the 17th Parallel, where the Ben Hai River in the DMZ region flows through Quang Tri province as the borderline. The Hien Luong Bridge, also known as the Peace Bridge in the DMZ, was built by the French in 1950 across the Ben Hai River. Measuring 178 meters long, this symbolic DMZ landmark witnessed 21 years of separation before the Vietnamese people from the North and South were finally reunited. Today, it is one of the most important stops in any DMZ Quang Tri tour, representing peace, independence, and national unity.

• Vinh Moc Tunnels and Tunnels Museum: The most highlight part of DMZ Tour during Vietnam War. The complex of Vinh Moc tunnel located deep in the Vietnamese Demilitarized Zone and sheltered Vinh Linh county people from the intense bombing. The tunnels were a success in saving the villagers’ lives and providing them the necessary living conditions to fight back the American enemy.

18h00: Tour ends at hotels in Hue.
