Experience not only the exploration of renowned caves but also an exhilarating adventure. Participants will have the opportunity to zip-line over a stunning turquoise river while harnessed, swim into the cave’s entrance with life jackets provided, and navigate the darkness with only a headlamp on a mining helmet to light the path. Engage in a playful mud fight in the buoyant mud baths deep within the cave and partake in various outdoor activities. Additionally, there is the chance to visit the longest dry cave in Asia, Paradise Cave. With its naturally pristine features, Paradise Cave resembles a landscape painting, making it a natural marvel that many have admired since its opening in 2010.

Amazing experience. Beautiful caves. - Trip was wonderful. Andy is a great guide. Also, caves are beautiful and it’s not tough at all. Only place I felt slightly scared was the ziplining which is also completely doable. Phong Nha cave is very beautiful and quite well maintained. Can be done by old people as well.

Adventurous fun - Had a great experience on this tour with tour guide Andy. Paradise cave is a nice relaxed pace to the morning to see some awesome geolocial formations then the dark cave is more adventurous, you get to wade into a dark cave and venture down a small passage to find the chamber with the mud bath. Must do experience and you even get to relax in a little water park in the river before leaving so you are fully clean by the time you leave. Also the Zipline is a lot of fun!

Highlight of our Vietnam trip - We did the one-day trip to Paradise and Dark caves. Paradise cave was beautiful and the Dark cave was so much fun. Our guide, Hwang, was fantastic - he was funny and made sure everything went very smoothly. This was one of the best days we had in Vietnam and I would definitely recommend it to others
