Just returned from my 3D/2N Hang Tien tour; it will definitely be the highlight of my time in Vietnam. From initial communication with my team through the end of the tour, everything was very well run. Our group's guide and our team of porters made sure we made it through our three day jungle trek without a problem. There was never any safety issues, the food was outstanding, and (most) of the gear provided was great. Make sure you read the tour description and know what you're getting into, especially if you end up choosing a longer tour. You will visit the caves, but the vast majority of your time will be spent trekking through dense jungle and very difficult terrain. I am a fairly experienced hiking and this was quite a difficult trek (about 30km). Be prepared for lots of up- and downhill, insects, leeches, spiders, mud, some more mud, and lots of sweat. Don't bother bringing a lot of clothes; you're going to get dirty and will stay dirty! Also be prepared to get wet. Lots of rivers to cross and caves to swim through (on some tours). If you're not so much for the hiking and more for the cave experience, choose a shorter tour. But if you're looking for the best of both worlds, definitely opt for one of the longer, more difficult treks. You won't regret it!

We did the Hang Tien 3d2n tour from Phong Nha. We got picked up from our hotel at 7 am. The trail was super wet and muddy so we had to use the hiking shoes.The views walking to the caves were beautiful! Everything was provided for you like water, food, helmets, shoes and gloves. Remember to bring insect spray.
