good - We were a little nervous about booking such an early and long day trip, but everything worked out perfectly. The driver was punctual, the vehicle was comfortable and the breaks were well placed. By the end of the day, we were tired but completely satisfied.

A Must-Do for Adventure-Seekers! - A must-do for adventure-seekers going to Phong Nha. Our tour guide, Lily, was absolutely hilarious and wonderful throughout the whole tour. The tour bus picked us up from our hotel in Phong Nha and took us to the Paradise Cave to start. There was a short incline hike long a well-paved path to get to the cave, where we got some free time for ourselves (around 1 hour). Next, lunch was provided by the tour company at a restaurant in the park, which included a whole variety of delicious foods (there was something for everyone)!. They were able to accommodate dietary restrictions as well. Afterwards, we were given time to change into swimwear for the Dark Cave. We were provided with hardhats with head lamps, and more jackets. We ziplined all the way to the cave opening, and swam around 20 metres to the cave entrance (it was super easy since everyone had a life jacket on). Lily, our tour guide, was proactive in taking pictures of every group member at various points during the tour as she was mindful that most of us could not take our phone in (unless we had some sort of waterproof pouch). The Dark Cave tour was our favourite part as it felt so adventurous to explore a cave in complete darkness, having to mildly climb and swim at some points in the cave. It was truly so fun and so different from anything else we’ve done in Vietnam. Lastly, there was an optional Duck Stop part of the tour as we headed back as well!

Exploring - The tour was well organized and we have been able to do all the program as scheduled. Lily our guide was very sweet, she explained to us interesting stuff about those giant caves and making sure we were fine always with the smile. The good thing also is that she mostly gave the informations on the road so we could visit freely the cave at our rythme afterwards !

Amazing! - I really enjoyed looking out of the window during the morning drive. Once we left the city, the scenery became much more rural and green. The journey itself felt like part of the experience rather than simply transportation.

Phong Nha Ke Bang - The shuttle bus was small and cramped. Other than that, I think it was a very enjoyable trip.
