Had a great day with Sy and saw beautiful impressive caves, which I have never seen before in my life. - We had a fantastic day with Sy as a guide. He took us to the caves in Phong Na. A beautiful place, very impressive and easy to do. Sy stayed with us the whole day, also to explain about the caves and the beautiful surroundings. The tour takes about half a day. After the tour we had a delicious local lunch. It is really recommended to have Sy as a guide, he speaks good English and also has a spacious large car suitable for 4 to 5 people. Thank you very much Sy for a beautiful fantastic day. Greetings from the Netherlands, Annie and Family

Brilliant - It is hard to describe the haunting beauty of these 5 million year old caves. Completely awe inspiring, nature’s Sistine chapel on steroids. Our guide Nick was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, flexible and helpful. Both caves interesting in their own way. I recommend you do not miss the beauty of the caves and the jungle whilst in Vietnam!
