A spectacular day out

I went today with my dad and it was absolutely incredible. We had ‘chocolate’ as our tour guide and she is just so amazing and great service. The fee booking it at the hotel was very worth it compared to booking it on a website. We spent the whole day out from 7:45am to around 5:30. All the other tourists were friendly and it was about 12 of us, a good size. The atmosphere was lovely, no dramas. This tour is best for everybody whether it be couples, family or solo! Got some great Instagram pictures as well

Paradise / Phong Nha Cave Tour

The tour was well organized from the start to the end. We were picked up right in front of our hotel and were transported in a nice bus with air conditioning (we even got a free bottle of water). The caves were stunning and I really wanna highlight the amazing job of our tourguide chocolate, who was nothing but friendly and supplied us with interesting information throughout the whole day.
