Phong Nha Cave
This was the first cave in the area to be opened to the public. It was used for shelter, as storage, and as a hospital during the American War. It is well worth a visit, especially for the journey up the river and into the cave aboard a traditional Dragon Boat. Every day we offer you to join a fixed departure time to have more people to join a group and share the cost of the boat tour.
Hang Toi ​(Dark Cave)
A real adventure cave, newly on the map here in Phong Nha, and still without the lights and large tourist groups to spoil the experience. You can explore this spectacular cave on our National Park tour or independently, and after kayaking across the river, enjoy swimming through the cave with your headtorch leading the way, then explore a side passage. Hang Toi is a wonderful and very accessible example of the beautiful caves that are found throughout this region.
Paradise Cave
If you are short of time and only have the chance to see one cave, this has to be the one. This truly spectacular cave is the largest dry cave in the world. The first 1km can be seen by anybody, either on a tour or by visiting the cave by yourself. The 7km trek into the cave is one of the most incredible days you can have in the area but is only available for a guided tour.
Botanical Garden
If you want to do a nice trek for the cheap price you can go to the Botanic garden and pay only 40,000vnd/person to do a short, medium or long trek into the forest end up with Thac Gio Waterfall. On the way, you will see some animals in a protected area and a few special trees. The small paths are very well indicated, so it’s easy to find your way. You can visit the Botanical Garden with a tour or independently.
