Itinerary
Itinerary: 07:00: AM - Departure: Sovaba Travel picks you up at locations such as hotels, train stations, and Dong Hoi airport. For customers arriving early from morning trains and buses, we will pick you up at Sovaba Travel's office to rest and relax before departure.
08:00: AM - Start: You will board a boat and head upstream on the poetic Son River, enjoying the picturesque natural scenery along the riverbanks. You will see images of young women and children playing by the river, offering you a glimpse into the daily life of the riverside village "Làng Trằm Mé," rich in the soul of rural Vietnam. 09:30: AM - Explore Phong Nha Cave: Next, you'll visit the Water Cave: Phong Nha Cave, the longest water cave in Southeast Asia, where you can marvel at the spectacular limestone mountains, underground rivers, and unique stalactites, unmatched anywhere else in the world. You'll explore the Fairy Lady Cave and the Royal Palace, where you'll admire stunning stalactite formations created by nature over thousands of millennia.
11:30: AM - Explore Tien Son Cave: Continuing your journey, you'll climb over 500 steps to reach Tiên Sơn Cave, a twin creation of nature alongside Phong Nha Cave. The beauty and allure of Tien Son Cave are entirely distinct from Phong Nha Cave, as the stalactite structures differ significantly from those in Phong Nha.
12:45: AM - Lunch Break: You will board the boat again to return to Phong Nha boat station. Upon arrival, you will relax at a local restaurant and enjoy lunch with a selection of local specialty dishes.
14:00: PM - Return Journey: End of the tour, Sovaba Travel's car and tour guide will take the group back to Dong Hoi city. We say goodbye to you and look forward to welcoming you in the next travel programs.

About Dong Hoi
Dong Hoi is a coastal city in central Vietnam, the gateway to Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park and its giant caves.
Dong Hoi is the capital of Quang Binh province, on a narrow stretch of Vietnam's central coast where the Nhat Le River meets the sea. The gate of the old citadel, Quang Binh Quan, still stands, though much of the city was rebuilt after the bombing of the Vietnam War. It is a quiet seaside town with a long beach at Nhat Le and a riverside promenade.
