What To Expect

Cat Ba National Park

Arrive at the National Park entrance, pay the entrance fee, and embark on an invigorating trek. Immerse yourself in the vibrant tropical forest as you encounter an array of wildlife, including agile minks, curious squirrels, playful monkeys, colorful butterflies, and perhaps even the elusive yellow-headed langur, a rare primate listed in the Red Book. Conquer three mountains known locally as "Ang Vắt," "Mây Bầu," and "Ang Phay."After completing a 2.5-hour trek covering approximately 6 kilometers, reach the Frog Pond, the largest freshwater lake nestled amidst the National Forest. From the pond's depths, towering "Va Nuoc" trees reach skyward, a species unique to the Frog Pond and found nowhere else on Cat Ba Island. Observe the diverse fish and crab species inhabiting the pond, and take a well-deserved 30-minute break. Continue your trek from Frog Pond, ascending the final mountain named "Doc Dài" to reach Viet Hai village, a tranquil ancient settlement of approximately 100 families.

The Tour was an amazing experience. Hieu is a great and experienced guide and he was exceptional helpful in getting us back to hanoi after the trip. The trekking itself was a bit hard but this made it an authentic experience in a less crowded area.

The tour was great, our guide Hieu very good! Earring from us always! If it rains it is quite slippery and you have to be careful, there are also quite a few steps!! Going through the village by bike and getting there to the port is fantastic as well as hanging out in Lan Ha bay, a paradise!

I highly recommend this trekking very diverse in sports activities and which puts us full of extraordinary landscapes. An unforgettable experience in the jungle of Cat Ba, in the village and in Lan Ha Bay, on foot, by bike , by boat, and by kayak... Our guide was adorable, and showed us the biodiversity of this island and its forest. It is an intense experience of encounters, discovery of nature but also sporting efforts.
Best adventure tour ever

Had one of the best adventures on this tour. This would not have been possible without Ahn leading the tour. Ahn was an amazing tour guide who was eager to help if you were struggling. I had a few mishaps during the tour due to my own clumsiness. I twisted my ankle and fell into a pond, which Ahn immediately helped me out of. He even took my bag to carry himself, when I got tired during the hike. It was a very long hike, and when I got hungry, Ahn provided refreshments which were very delicious. This was a very strenuous hike, but satisfying once you complete it. Ahn was also very knowledgeable about the island and insects. The food provided at the end of the hike was good too. To top it off, Ahn took pictures and videos of the entire hike. At the end, he compiled it into a really nice and professional video for you to take home. With all the help and services that Ahn provided, I think the price is too much of a steal. It was a very good deal for what you get. And it was a pleasure meeting and getting to know Ahn. If you want an authentic and adventurous experience in Cat Ba island, this is the tour for you!

On 27 and 28 July 2025, my wife and I were in Cat Ba. On the 27th we did a fantastic cruise with Green Trail Travel and our guide, the fantastic "Tiger". On the 28th we did a fantastic day of hiking in Cat Ba National Park. Our guide Anh was a real professional. He told us things about the jungle, found animals, made us a spectacular video and made us always feel very comfortable and safe with him. The end of the day with the bike ride in Viet Hai was a golden snap a day. Anh really made us happy that day.
