The cave was not called paradise cave lightly. It cost 250,000VND per person which was worth it. We decided to walk to save money, it wasn't that far. You don't really need a buggy- if you feel you need a buggy you shouldn't go as there is lots of stairs up and down to the cave and inside. We have not seen a more beautiful cave in our lives, even on TV. We have never seen anything like it. The stalactites and stalagmite were out of this world, we felt we were on another planet. The 31.4 kilometre cave was discovered in 2005 by the British caving association and in 2019 was given the Asian world record for the most unique and magnificent system of stalactites and stalagmite in Asia. The photos do not do this place justice, we are so glad we were able to visit. The scale was hard to comprehend, you could have easily fit large buildings into the cave, and at some angles you could see hundreds of meters of tunnel.

A staggeringly beautiful cave. We came to Dong Hoi especially to visit the cave and generally would not go in a tour group but on this occassion picked up from hotel and easy transfer. It was an amazing cave and the other reviews give a great indication. We then had an amazing platter lunch. A lot of healthy excellent food. Victor was an excellent guide. Highly recommend you visit this cave! A must do!

Yes it’s the wet season and the 4km and 7 km options were cancelled. But- the one km boardwalk into the cave is mind blowing. Paradise cave is the longest dry cave in the world. Just in the first km, there were huge arenas and amazing features. A must see

Felt very privileged to see this cave, like football stadium after football stadium with a 50m swim in the darkness. Not for the claustrophobic. Great guide with Adventure tour and Ms Huyen, thank you! You won’t see all of this in the early part of the cave, as spectacular as it is with the lights

Amazing cave. We rode motorbikes early to the cave. Ride itself is beautiful. It's a short walk from the carpark to the entrance then a windy track to the cave. Cost 250k each. Was really impressive inside cave . No big tours there if you go early.

Getting to the cave itself isn't difficult the tracks up from the Ticket area are nicely done and the climb gradient from the base to the cave entrance isn't steep. They designed the tracks well to make it easy to access. The stairs within the cave entrance is the one which is a bit steep but it also is well fitted with hand rails. I was hugely impressed with the investment into proper viewing walkways within the cave which makes the whole experience most enjoyable. Highly recommend and a cave not to be missed!

We got our Phong Nha accommodation to drive us here and wait for us which was very convenient as it is a fair way out of town. From the ticket office you have 2 options, the stairs (left) or the ramp (right) which take you up to the cave entrance. The entrance seemed smallish but wow it is the biggest, massive, huge etc and a huge wow - a must do! There are a lot of stairs, has wooden platform to walk around and enough lighting to see where you are going but you need to take care for small kids or elderly as there are not handrails at their height. Go slowly and enjoy. We stopped for so many photos that look great. The board walk goes for 1km and the view just gets better and better. Just a stunning cave that will be memorable. Well worth the trip to see this. We prefer not doing it on a tour as we had an elderly person with us and wanted to take our time and not be rushed which was a great decision. There are toilets and places near carpark for drinks, food and market style stalls plus a place near the entrance for drinks etc too. We managed in wearing jandels but noticed a lot of people had running shoes on which would be more sensible. There is a golf cart service you can pay for to drive you closer to the cave, but this is on the flat part, so I really don't get the point of that. The hard part is the walk up to the entrance either stairs or ramp, either way you will be a sweaty mess. It is worth it.

Absolutely amazing and vast cave. We only had one day to visit Phong Nha cave in the morning and then Paradise cave in the afternoon, with a private driver. Most of the tour to these caves the other way round, and it was brilliant being in Paradise cave when it was so empty. We literally could not see anyone else for several long sections, and it was so quiet. We only had time to visit these two caves, and not do any of the treks, but it was brilliant and well worth the journey to get there. One of the highlight of our trip.

We went as a family of four with two teenage kids. We rented scooters to do the park loop and stopped at the Botanical Garden (quite nice) and this cave. The cost seemed originally a bit steep at 250,000 vnd pp, and the entrance very touristy, but once inside, we realized very worth it, and quite a bit of infrastructure to make the cave accessible to many. We were there right around lunch time (and in June, which is not high season) and we nearly had the cave to ourselves. It was blessedly cool down in the cave on a very, very hot day. I generally am not attracted to really touristy places, but these caves were really quite spectacular with amazing formations.

Paradise Cave is over 60km from Dong Hoi City and nearby the Ho Chi Minh Trail. It is part of a limestone mountain and is surrounded by a primeval forest in Phong Nha Ke Bang National Park. * There are two options for tickets here. One is only two kilometers walking. And another one is 14 km trekking with the local guide and supporters. You should contact them in advance to prepare better for departure. You will have a memorable trip @ Vietnam here. Highly recommended!
