Hanoi,
Vietnam, June 01, 2012 -- The
Luxury
Travel Company is Vietnam’s first luxury tour
company and full travel service agency. Luxury Travel is experienced
in providing special services and unique tourism products to
luxury-minded global travelers.
Long
Tan is a village in Ba Ria Vung Tau Province, Vietnam. When it was
part of South Vietnam, it was part of Phuoc Tuy Province. It is
renowned for its rubber plantations and is home to a very small
population of roughly 1,200 people.
The
Battle of Long Tan is arguably the most famous battle fought by the
Australian Army during the Vietnam War. The battle took place from
August 18-19, 1966 and was fought in a rubber plantation near the
village of Long Tan, about four kilometres northeast of Vung Tau.
The
action occurred when D Company of the 6th Battalion, Royal Australian
Regiment (6RAR), part of the 1st Australian Task Force (1 ATF),
encountered the Viet Cong (VC) 275 Regiment and elements of the D445
Local Forces Battalion. D Company was supported by other Australian
units, as well as New Zealand and United States personnel.
The
battle is often used in Australian officer training as an example of
the importance of combining and coordinating infantry, artillery,
armour and military aviation.
“Your
tour of this historic site will start with a 07:30 pick up from the
main lobby of your hotel in HCMC (aka Saigon). After breakfast,
travelers will drive to Tan Son Nhat Heliport to fly to Ba Ria Vung
Tau. You will fly over the coastal city and have 15 minutes in the
sky to take in the panoramic view of the former Nui Dat Task Force
base. Then, you will land at Vung Tau Airport. “This bird’s eye
view is great and quite emotionally moving, especially for veterans,”
said David Nguyen Sales and Marketing Manager of Luxury Travel
Company.
Luxury
Travel’s driver will wait for travelers there, and then transfer
them to Long Tan Nui Dat to see the remains of the vast camp. The
former runway is now a wide street in the local village and what was
the helipad is now a soccer field. A school established by Australian
veterans is also nearby. Later, you will drive past the location of
the Horseshoe (access not permitted these days due to mining
activity) and go to the DeCourtney Rubber Plantation, then pause to
reflect at the Long Tan Cross before helicoptering back to Ho Chi
Minh City where travelers will arrive at 17:00 and return by car to
hotel.
The
company provides private charter airplane or helicopter to Con Dao,
Phu Quoc islands.
