Description
Embark on an adventure-filled journey through Cat Ba National Park, a UNESCO-recognized world biosphere reserve on Cat Ba Island, boasting a rich tapestry of tropical humid forests, wetlands, mangroves, and coral reefs. The most thrilling way to uncover the island's breathtaking wonders is by trekking from Cat Ba town, through the jungle, observing wild animals, and delving into local life on the way to Viet Hai Village, before concluding your adventure with a scenic boat ride back. Your guided expedition commences with a pickup from the Beka Travel office or your accommodation in Cat Ba town, transporting you directly to the heart of Cat Ba National Park. As you hike from the park's entrance, your path takes you across three peaks—Ang Vat, May Bau, Ang Phay—offering brief stops for photography and to soak in the diverse viewpoints. The trek to Frog Pond unveils a realm ideal for bird watching and immersing in the untouched primary forest, leading to the park's largest freshwater lake, surrounded by unique Va Nuoc trees found only here. Continuing onwards, the trail descends towards Viet Hai Village, easing as it shifts to mostly downhill and flat paths. Upon arrival, the warmth of local villagers welcomes you, inviting you to savor lunch with home-cooked dishes in a traditional setting. Post-meal, explore the ancient village by bicycle, discover nearly a hundred houses, and possibly indulge in a fish massage experience in a cool stream or local fish pond. The journey then takes you cycling to Viet Hai harbor, presenting what is arguably the most picturesque route for cycling enthusiasts. Awaiting next is an exploration of Lan Ha Bay by kayak, offering a glimpse into the life on water at a floating house and the mesmerizing beauty of one of the world's most exquisite bays. The tour concludes with a visit to Cai Beo Floating Village, Vietnam's oldest aquatic community, before returning you to your starting point in Cat Ba town. This adventure through Cat Ba National Park and its surrounding wonders promises not just a tour, but a journey into the heart of nature's unparalleled beauty.Includes
