Paradise cave is the longest dry cave in Asia (located in Phong Nha – Ke bang National Park’s core zone. With naturally primitive features, Paradise Cave looks like a landscape painting; making it a natural wonder that many have enjoyed since its opening in 2010. According to spelunkers (cave explorers), the deeper one journeys into the cave, the more one feels the wells of heavenly clarity all around. The cave height can reach to 72 m and up to 150 m wide. The Dark cave is an adventurous and action-packed experience. Visiting this cave includes harnessed zip lining over a turquoise river, swimming into the mouth of the cave (lifejackets included), walking through the dark with only the head torch on your mining helmet to illuminate the way, having a mud fight in the buoyant mud baths deep in the cave, washing clean with a swim in the lake inside the cave, then kayaking back across the river to test your strength on the hanging obstacle course and open ziplines.

This tour is the only tour that takes you deep into both cave and jungle. Start by visiting paradise cave, then have lunch in the local restaurant. Take a dip in the blue pond, then hold onto ropes, and climb ladders to get to a magnificent waterfall which boasts fantastic views of the mountainous area. With naturally primitive features, Paradise Cave looks like a landscape painting; making it a natural wonder that many have enjoyed since its opening in 2010.

????????????the cave had really good scenery with the mountains one side and the town the other.????????????Once at the cave the engines are turned off and paddles used to take you through the wet areas. I thought this was a pretty unique way to explore such massive caves, the top of the boat was slid across so you could look up. Once you reach the end the boat turns around and starts to paddle back. You then get out of the boat for a short route by foot back to the cave highly recommended. I really enjoyed the trip, the boat ride being the highlight as some of the structures looks like

We were trekking for 2 days and 1 night in the abandoned valley. If you want to hike really trough the jungle and explore some caves off the beaten track, you definetly need to do this tour. The campsite was right in front of the entry to the cave in the middle of the jungle. Amazing!!! Swimming in the E cave was also an experience you can't get somewhere else! The guides took care of us, were really friendly and answered all our questions. During the trip there was plenty of food and it was really delicious, even for vegetarians.

The 1st km was not impressive. Too much artificial lighting. Too many people who do not truly appreciate nature and understand the value of what they are experiencing. The wonder started the moment you left the wooden walkway onto the cave platform, and walk for another 6km into the dark. We took the tour at the end of May. We had to wear protective helmets. The cave was huge and cool, decorated with stalactites and stalagmites of various sizes and shapes. Once we turned off all the lights and stood in absolute darkness and silence to experience the sounds inside the cave. We swam across a little stream. The water was refreshing. We did some rock climbing. Not dangerous at all, just kind of adding spices to the walk. At the end of the cave, the cave opened and let a stream of sunshine pour in. The tour guides brought lunch for us. The grilled chicken was so yummy. It was a marvelous trip. We highly recommend this tour.
