HANG PYGMY EXPLORATION 2 DAYS 1 NIGHT TOUR
Because of its high difficulty level, there are not many tourists who take the journey to explore the entire length of Tiger Cave Phong Nha, hang Over, and Pygmy Cave.

In this journey, you will conquer two consecutive caves: Over cave with a length of 3.2km and Pygmy cave. Additionally, you are accompanied by countless experiences, such as walking in the middle of the green forest, swinging in a cave, and camping in Phong Nha Ke Bang National Park.
Most importantly, this is a journey to discover the mysteries of the green forest, so ensuring safety is a top priority. Moreover, our guides, safety assistants, and service staff will accompany you throughout the journey of discovery.
