Paradise Cave (Dong Thien Duong ) discovered by scientists of the British Caving Research Association in 2005, has the length of 31km, the longest dry cave in Asia. With naturally primitive features, Paradise Cave looks like a landscape painting, making it very attractive to visitors. According to spelunkers, the deeper one journeys into the cave, the more one feels the wells of heavenly clarity all around. There are a series of white crystal stalactites resembling glass pillars and many other spectacular formations.
Phong Nha cave is not only a natural legacy of the world or a wonder of the country Vietnam but also a relic system of the historic street Ho Chi Minh which collaborates with Xuan Son Ferry in order to create a route supporting for the battleground of South Vietnam during US War. Today, this place has become the first section of Ho Chi Minh trails. Therefore, coming to Phong Nha means you are visiting this legendary trails.

Our visit to Paradise and Phong Nha Caves was exceptional! The sights are beautiful and impressive. Everything went as planned, without delay or unpleasant surprises. Above all, Nick our guide was fantastic. He knows the history of these caves well and his comments are always relevant. What a beautiful discovery, thank you Nick. Jimmy and Manon , Quebec, Canada.
A very nice day well organized, with Nick, our guide, perfectly bilingual English and very funny. You just have to let yourself be guided, everything is done to make the visit go perfectly. Lunch in the restaurant was hearty and well served. The advantage of being in minibus (10-12 people maximum) and no rush, we have time for everything.
Our one day tour of Phong Nha and Paradise caves was fantastic. Beautiful experience. Nick, our tour guide, was quite entertaining and his English was impeccable.
Never seen such beautiful and large caves. The guide was perfectly English speaking. The driver drove safely and calmly.
I highly recommend this day trip and tour company! :) Our english speaking guide Nick was a fun, well informed, passionate Human! He is also an enciclopedia of knowledge when it comes to Vietnam and Caves. The two caves are so big and magical that it felt, in a positive way, like I was walking through another dimension. The mid day meal was both tasty and filling with lots of vegetarian options. I’m very grateful I spent the money to have everything organized for me. I had a great day! :)
What a wonderful, action packed, mind-blowing and informative day. Nick collected us from our hotel, drove us to Paradise Cave, while answering all our questions about life in Vietnam, then accompanied us on the walking tour of Paradise Cave, lunch and the boat tour of Phong Nha Cave. He was friendly and professional throughout, both interesting and interested in us. Lunch was large, varied and delicious. We were a group of three, touring the caves in the quiet off season. I whole-heartedly recommend this tour.
We had a great, helpful, guide. Both caves were beautiful in their own way. Transport was smooth and guidance was very informative.
Outstanding, Super great caves , wonderful day, everything worked out mega... I was picked up by the homestay, the minivan was comfortable, very good English speaking tour guide Nick , he explained a lot and was in a good mood. The caves were fantastic even the boat tour was fun. Highly recommended! 10 out of 10 !!!
Nick (Ngoc) was an excellent tour guide! Above all, I liked his cheerful funny way. That also brought the group together so we had a great time. Unfortunately, due to the level of the river we could not go by boat into the cave. But we were still able to look at part of the cave. That was a shame, but of course you can't change it when it rains a lot. The ride in the minivan was pleasant, the pickup went quickly as we were only a small group (8 people). Lunch was fantastic. Thank you so much!
Overall, the experience was great. The tour was well organized and executed. The best part was having both caves to ourselves (at least part of the time). Nick was very knowledgeable and personable. Definitely recommend and might come back.
