Dong Hoi Passeios

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

Tại Hang Tối, chúng tôi đã tận hưởng các hoạt động đu dây, khám phá hang động, tắm bùn, chèo thuyền kayak, bơi lội và các trò chơi sông nước vui nhộn. Hang động hoàn toàn tối đen như mực, điều này càng làm cho trải nghiệm thêm phần ly kỳ. Họ đã cung cấp áo phao và mũ bảo hiểm có đèn pin gắn sẵn, giúp việc khám phá an toàn và dễ dàng. Nước trong vắt và có màu xanh tuyệt đẹp, tăng thêm không khí huyền ảo. Hướng dẫn viên của chúng tôi, ông King, rất am hiểu và giàu kinh nghiệm, khiến cuộc phiêu lưu vừa an toàn vừa thú vị. Chúng tôi cũng đã khám phá Động Thiên Đường, nơi cũng ngoạn mục không kém nhưng theo một cách hoàn toàn khác. Chuyến tham quan bao gồm một chuyến xe điện lên đến lối vào núi, sau đó là một cuộc khám phá hang động đáng kinh ngạc. Các khối đá khổng lồ và nội thất được chiếu sáng tuyệt đẹp thật choáng ngợp. Hướng dẫn viên của chúng tôi, Tuyên, còn được gọi là Chocolate, đã chia sẻ những hiểu biết tuyệt vời về khu vực và làm cho trải nghiệm thêm phần hấp dẫn. Toàn bộ chuyến tham quan được tổ chức liền mạch bởi Phong Nha Discovery Tours. Mọi thứ đều được quản lý tốt và chuyên nghiệp.

Everything was good. Lunch was cold and stale, not good. 😂 Try the afternoon tour; at least you'll catch the sunset on the boat. From 9-11 am at My Son, there were so many people... I had to run a little to group up again to keep to schedule. Because of the rice paper and boring lunch, there was little time at My Son. The guide's explanation was 60 minutes, 20 minutes walking, 20 minutes dance show. Only 2 minutes left to close your eyes to feel the air and stones... because the other 18 minutes you have to run and rush to the other 2 sites beside the main one by speed walking, I think. If I could start over, I'd choose the afternoon tour. Because morning is so early and I didn't have breakfast, so hungry. And rice paper making is a bit boring for my Chinese background, plus lunch was 😕 so-so. I think it would be best to take your lunch and wake up late, relax, then do the afternoon tour without the other 2 activities and no rushing, plus the sunset boat ride is way more beautiful... 🙃 than a 1 pm ride 😅

Dark cave exploration is an exceptional experience, and the guides made it special by sharing the history of the caves. The experience begins with a great zip line, followed by a short swim to the cave entrance. Once inside, you'll be marvelled by nature, and it's a bit of an adventure until the mud bath. All in all, a very great experience that you must not miss. The Phong Nha cave experience is also beautiful and relaxing.

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!!

Our tour guide Trà was so friendly and fun! The tour was so good, especially the Duck farm! The family-run business was so hospitable!!!
