Phong Nha National Park One Day Caving Tour

Botanic Garden, Paradise Cave, Dark Cave

Your first stop is the Botanical Garden where you’ll get a wonderful view of lush mountains, Gio (Wind) Waterfall and Van Anh Lake. You’ll also have the chance of visiting an animal rehabilitation centre as well as learning even more from an interpretive center. If you’re observant enough you’ll even get a chance to spot some Monkeys or other wild animals.

Prior to the discovery of Son Doong Cave, Paradise Cave was regarded as the largest and longest cave in Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park. After

an easy walk up the mountain side, explore the cave along an elevated wooden platform. The wooden platform extends into 1km of the 31km

cave. After all that caving, enjoy a hearty meal and socialize at a restaurant.

Put on your swimsuit, your adventure gear (helmet, lights, life jacket) and get ready to zipline down 400 exhilarating meters to the entrance of

the cave. After a skin cleansing mud bath and some cave exploration, hop into a kayak and paddle out of the cave. Once outside you can swim

and jump in the water. Once sufficiently wet we’ll change into our dry clothes, have a drink (or two) together and board the van that takes

everyone back to the their hotel. This full day tour offers something for people of all abilities.
