Amazing tour to the caves with an amazing tour guide. Nick is very fluent to English and explains a lot about what you see. The caves are nature's miracles ! In the first Cave you go by your foot and in the second by boat.

Very pleasant to have Sy as a guide. He told many things about the area and about the war in this area and the caves. He was the whole time with us and had extra drinking water in the car. Traveling with 3 young children(5,5,9). Sy handled it great. Thanks for the experience today.
The caves are absolutely fantastic. Tons of diffrent stone formations, colours, shades, sizes…In formations you can see modern art you can see baroque etc. The tour was well planned and executed. Lot of sitting car though, I guess there’s no alternative. Paradise cave can be crowded so better to be there early. Guide Nick was just great. Spoke good English and had a lot of knowlege about the geography and history of the caves, also about history of Vietnam. Lunch was good at the cozy restaurant by the river. Definitely one of the best tours we have been.
The caves were spectacular but what really made the tour was our exceptional guide Nick! He was really knowledgeable and personable and answered all of the many questions we had. Would highly recommend!
