Tour price: VND 2,400,000 per person.
The Paradise Cave 7km Adventure is for travellers who want to continue beyond the familiar sightseeing experience and spend more time exploring underground.
Begin with an introduction to the cave before following your guide towards the adventure section. As the surroundings change, the experience becomes more active: the pace depends on the terrain, the group and the operating conditions.
Away from the standard visitor route, take time to appreciate the cave through the light of your headlamp. Notice the shapes of limestone formations, the scale of the chambers and the details that emerge as your eyes adjust to the darkness.
This programme requires more physical effort than the standard Paradise Cave visit. Expect an extended period underground and walking over uneven, potentially slippery surfaces.
Your guide will explain the route, equipment and procedures before the adventure section begins. Stay together, follow instructions and move carefully throughout the journey.
The “7km” programme name should not be interpreted as the total distance walked during the day. Please ask us to confirm the route, turning point and expected walking distance for your departure.
