Description
Day 1: Hanoi - Visit Angel Mountain - Travel on Scenic Route
You will get picked up from your Hanoi hotel in an air-conditioned car or local limousine bus. You will spend 6 hours on the bus to reach Cao Bang city (the driver does not speak English) and receive a warm welcome from our local English tour guide at the bus station.
Leave the busy metropolis on your journey north and enjoy spectacular views of lush rice fields and impressive mountain peaks.
Stop for lunch at an outdoor homestay restaurant where you will be served a large selection of delicious Vietnamese dishes
Your next stop is a local village and an exquisite cyclops mountain. There, you have a leisurely opportunity to photograph a valley that time forgot
Next, you will drive up through the beautiful winding roads towards Cao Bang Global Geopark and beyond, to your homestay for the night. With time to rest, relax and shower, enjoy a locally sourced and cooked feast, and chat to your local tour guide. After dinner, explore the area or relax in your room.
Day 2: Tiger Cave - Ban Gioc Waterfall - Truc Lam Pagoda
An early morning breakfast sets you up for a day of amazing sights.
Head to the tiger cave and explore the beautiful spaces long before the crowds arrive. Have fun searching the cool and breezy cave system for the tiger, the lotus flower, the leaping dragon, and many more ancient and fascinating rock formations as well as stalactites and stalagmites.
After, drive to the foot of a stunning hillside with a short climb to a Buddhist temple. From up there, you can see your next stop: the mighty waterfalls.
Drive to the waterfalls and get ready to record some amazing memories. You can even pay a small surcharge to take a raft right into the spray (and the Chinese border!).
You will then travel back to Cao Bang city for a final delicious meal before another picturesque journey back to the hustle and bustle of Hanoi.
…And all this in the company of a friendly and enthusiastic host who always makes you feel comfortable and relaxed
Your trip to the Northeast of Vietnam will be unforgettable.
