There is a fee for Cu Chi entrance 90.000 VND for foreigners and 20.000 VND for vietnamese.

If you have time and if you don't want to be part of a group, you may choose to take the public bus in distric 1 to Cu Chi tunnel, it costs only 18.000 VND. Of course you won't have any guide to present you the site.
