Paradise Cave, Son Trach, Vietnam 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.

One of the best days in our Viet Nam trip. Both caves are absolutely something to see in your lifetime! The tour gives you enough time to really explore the caves without being rushed. Our guide Duyen provided information but left us a lot of time to explore on our own which is really what you want to do in these gigantic beautiful caves.

Phong Nha cave and Paradise cave are definitely two jewels.
The organization was top:
We started with Paradise cave with a long and beautiful walk, and then a very good lunch.
After that the relax part, we took the boat who brought us inside Phong Nha cave.
They opened the roof of the boat in order for us to admire everything.
After a round on the river inside, they left us in the middle of the cave, in order to get the experience to come back on foot.
A very beautiful experience with an awesome guide Tuyen, who took great care of us!
A tip: I was hesitating between Paradise and Dark Cave.
- Paradise cave is really a beauty to see and enjoy during a long walk.
- Dark cave, as the name indicates, is dark, so not much to see.
It has interest only the activities you will do: zip line, kayak and mud bath.
