Tuyen our guide is an absolute Superstar. she had the challenge of providing information in English and Vietnamese as our group had a 50/50 split. She gave lots of good info and made sure no one in the group got left behind. The value for the price we paid was quite reasonable considering it was transportation both ways and a very nice 7-8 course authentic Vietnamese family style lunch. note about the Paradise Cave tour: it’s A LOT of stairs to get up to the cave entrance. then once in the cave it’s a lot of steps down then back up. the large boats for Phong Nha c Cave were covered so no real need for hats or sunscreen thankfully. THANK YOU TUYEN for such a great tour!!!

This day trip is a must do, genuinely one of the best I have ever been on. The caves are stunning and our guide Trà (Jessica) literally made the trip 10/5 stars for me. She had a good sense of humour, was super professional and informative in making sure our group got the most out of the day, and really went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a good day😊 I would highly, highly recommend both Trà as a guide and this tour to anyone considering it!!

I had a wonderful experience with our tour guide Mr Long! Our ride was smooth and driver was very accommodating. Mr Long was very informative, friendly, and helpful throughout the entire tour. The weather was quite rainy, but he still made sure we were comfortable and helped us navigate around safely. He was patient, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain everything clearly. His effort really made the experience enjoyable despite the rain. Thank you so much for making our tour memorable! Highly recommended! ❤️

What to know before visiting Dong Hoi

A quick introduction to Dong Hoi and its highlights

Dong Hoi is a compact coastal city where Tours, Water activities and Massages dominate Klook bookings, and demand rises and falls through the year rather than staying flat. Klook data shows a clear annual rhythm with a single busy spike in April and quieter months in the autumn.

When to visit: best months for crowds and prices

According to Klook booking data, April is the peak month for visitor demand while October is the quietest. Prices drift through the year: they hit their lowest typical level around August and reach their highest around March. If you want lower prices and smaller crowds, aim for August or October; if you prefer peak-season atmosphere and fuller services, plan for April. In this market prices and demand mostly move together overall, though the very priciest month (March) comes just before the busiest month (April).

Tips for travellers from Australia

Most travellers from Australia typically book activities about four days in advance, with last-minute options available a day out and early planners booking around twenty days ahead. For short, flexible trips you can often reserve tours a few days beforehand; if you’re travelling in April, consider booking earlier to secure preferred time slots. Use Klook to check availability and lock in experiences that suit your dates.
