Brilliant trip!

We joined the DWS tour with Govan and had the best time. My partner is an experienced climber whereas I have no experience whatsoever and the tour was able to provide an incredible day for both of us. Govan was a brilliant guide and created a fun and relaxed atmosphere for everyone on the trip which was totally seamless from beginning to end.

Deep water solo 🔥🧗🏻‍♀️

A friend and I decided to go Deep Water Soloing at the beginning of July. The staff is very kind and super helpful; coming from Hanoi that day, the buses were quite late, but despite that, they waited without any problems, just to let us have this fantastic experience. The weather wasn't the best initially either, but trust their word because they are experts in this too; we were able to climb very well even though it was pouring rain until about an hour before the start of the climb. Fantastic staff and beautiful experience. Thank you, thank you

Not well organised initially but awesome experience.

I got to the pick-up location at 8am, as per my ticket, and the lady at the counter told me the vendor had moved locations. Luckily it was only a 5 minute walk. When i go there, the told me thr DWS was only at 1230pm and they also didn't have a record of my ticket. I didn't have to pay and luckily I had nothing on, so I could went for a hike while I waited until 1230. We took a taxi, then a boat ride to have lunch, which wasn't organised that well, as nobody was sure what time we were supposed to eat. Then we got on the walls roughly around 2pm. After all the mucking about, the actual deep water soling was awesome and I had a wicked time. Would recommend, even if you get messed arpund a little. I'd recommend checking a day or 2 in advance, for more speicfic details and asking questions, to avoid any confusion.

unforgettable morning on the bay

We came over to finally discover deep water solo and we met another group of 2 who brought us to 2 beautiful locations from cat ba Island. Our guide Govan and the team immediately instilled a super friendly and relaxed atmosphere and gave us the instructions on how to get onto the rocks. He selected the right routes for our level of climbing and gradually gave us more challenge. Jumping off the cliffs was fun and we overall had an amazing experience! Good lunch on the floating village and the boat trip back to cat ba ended our tour <3

The best thing to do in Vietnam

I did the half day DWS. It was incredible, combining a fun, challenging and adrenaline filled activity with incredible views of lan ha bay. I can’t imagine a better way to experience this part of the world. Our guide Toan made the activity - he was super fun and friendly - ask for him if you come! It has made me want to take up climbing as a hobby and do more DWS in other parts of the world. Langur’s also helped me get to Hanoi on time for my train after I initially missed my bus. I can’t recommend them highly enough!

The best thing to do in Cat Ba by far!

Our guide was really nice, and a real pro climber (8a/V11), so he could helped us a lot. One of us was climbing for the second time in her life, I am on a V7 level, both of us really enjoyed it. There are tons of problems of multiple styles and difficulties, so everyone can pick theirs, we even got a boat for just of us 2, so we had the time to enjoy the view, rest, talk, swim. Definitely the highlight of our stay in Cat Ba!

Super experience

We were a group of 6 from different levels. Super happy with our guide made it very easy and tried to indicate a way for each according to our level. It was a lot of fun. They give you cat's feet. Having the boat waiting for you nearby is a luxury as it is a very intense activity. I would repeat a thousand more times!!! Thanks for the patience

Supportive climbing group

I was very nervous and all the staff made me feel secure. They made me laugh and gave me the confidence to try several times. Thank you

Exceptional discovery & organization at the top!

Amazing day!!! Morning psicoblock (deep water solo) in the beautiful of La Han!! Breathtaking landscape, unique experience for the whole family, top organization that adapts to all levels. Delicious meals. Followed by an afternoon kayak!

Some of the best climbing iv ever done

It was very fun and my guide, Edcel was great. The free lunch was also very good. I would highly recommend. Should add that it is probably better if you have some climbing experience prior.
