100% recommend and definitely dark cave

Absolutely incredibly day out - King was our tour guide for the dark cave, very dry humour, very wet experience! 100% recommend the dark cave for anyone wanting a more interesting day out. The water park in the river is brilliant fun after you’ve done with the cave. The phong Nha cave experience is amazing as well, the boatmen and guides were brilliant and gave a really good overview of the caves used during the war

10 out of 10 Tour

The tour was very well organized and we had lots of fun. Our guide spoke excellent English. The caves where both very impressive in their own way and the activity program in the afternoon at the dark cave was super fun. Easily the best tour we did in Vietnam so far.

Best day ever

Me and my friend had the best day ever yesterday it was honestly a highlight of our trip. Victor was the best tour guide, he was so funny and informative we loved him. And the cave experiences were magical and so fun, we especially loved the 40 minutes to swim and zip line into the water and go on the trampoline in the water

Fantastic caves and funny mud bath experience

Great full day trip with the nice tour guide Victor. Our family were picked up at the hotel on time and arrived at entrance to the Paradise cave easily. An easy 15-20 minutes walk to the cave opening and then we were amazed by the beautiful Paradise cave -wow! The dark cave experience was less impressive but very enjoyable with some zip-lining and eventually a mud bath with a lot of laughter. You have possibility to change clothes and take a warm shower afterwards. Just don’t bring your most expensive swim clothes as they will be dirty. Have fun!

Amazing Phong Nha Caves, Hue city tour, Hue street food tour, and excellent private transfer taxi from Phong Nha to Hue

I highly recommend contacting them via WhatsApp at +84886559609. They will assist you effortlessly. Explore the caves, zipline, take a mud bath, kayak, swim, and more on this full-day tour to Phong Nha Paradise Cave. Being a small group tour helps in keeping costs down by sharing transportation !!!!. You'll have ample time to experience all activities at your own pace and savor the included Vietnamese lunch. Additionally, we booked a private transfer to Hue, a Hue city tour, and a Hue street food tour by cyclo with them. They are the best tour operator company in Vietnam, offering affordable prices and backed by local travel experts who design and support our tour. We absolutely loved our tour experiences. Thank you so much!

Super useful day

Spectacular, a necessary obligatory stop on your trip, the views of nature are spectacular, the guide Hoang is super friendly and attentive to his adventurers all the time. There were 5 of us and we had a very, very good time. The Paradise Cave is a little more touristy and the spectacular Dark Cave is a beautiful place.
