Dong Hoi 2026 Calendar of Events

We had two great guides: Nick and Viktor! They had good knowledge of the caves, attentive to what we wanted, friendly, very good in english and they made the day go really smooth. They were also very good with kids - our boys aged 9 and 11 loved the experience.

My wife and I did the Paradise and Dark Cave Tours. We did the Paradise Cave tour with Nick as our guide. Nick was an amazing guide, very knowledgeable and interesting, with a great understanding of how the cave was formed and who discovered it and when. His English was perfect and he kept the group well informed of all the cave’s details. In the afternoon we did the Dark Cave tour with Victor. My wife and I are in our late 50s (ok, nearly 60) and as this is quite adventurous, Victor really looked after us. Victor was also very funny, extremely knowledgeable and was a park cave explorer for over 15 years. We had an absolutely brilliant time on the Dark Cave tour with Victor, and felt we were in very safe hands indeed. I can’t recommend Victor and Nick highly enough. The lunch provided was also absolutely delicious and the administrative arrangements and communication all worked perfectly.

Although it was raining (and a bit cold for us) we enjoyed the tour to the caves! The views were amazing and in the dark cave it was funny. Also the food was really good + the guides were so nice! 😊

We had the best time on this tour. Both tour guides, Nick & Hannah were so friendly, very knowledgeable and answered any questions we had. Paradise cave was breathtaking, well worth the visit and had a good path the whole way. The dark cave was our favourite, with the zip line into the cave and mud bath, however we would highly recommend wearing pool shoes as the ground was quite rough underfoot. Lunch at the dark cave restaurant was also fantastic, served on giant banana leaves.Such a great tour, 100% would recommend!

Very impressive. Good guidance from our guide Nick. Was a friendly and enthusiastic guide with knowledge of the facts.

Despite the rain (wear a raincoat if possible) it was an amazing day, beautiful place, and a wonderful tour guide Nic!

Very nice experience and a very good guide! Would definitely recommend it, a nice day activity. Caves were very special and our guide knew a lot to tell.

We had Nick as our tour guide. He spoke a very good English He was happy to answer questions about the caves as well as Vietnam in general. The pick-up, the tours in the 2 caves, lunch and the return journey were well organized. We can definitely recommend the tour.

We had a fantastic day with our guide Sy. The caves are very beautiful and very different from each other. Sy knows a lot about the caves and the history of this area. Also from his own experience, which results in very beautiful stories. We were very impressed by the caves and the stories about this area.
