What To Expect
Cuc Phuong National Park
Experience the Wild Heart of Northern Vietnam: Cuc Phuong & The Bear Sanctuary Escape the tourist trails of Tam Coc and Trang An for a day of raw nature, ancient history, and heartfelt conservation. This immersive day trek takes you deep into Cuc Phuong National Park—Vietnam’s oldest nature reserve—and provides an intimate look at the heroic efforts to protect the region’s wildlife at the NINH BINH Bear Sanctuary. The Journey Begins: Stepping into the Ancient Jungle Your adventure starts with a scenic drive toward the limestone karst mountains that fringe Cuc Phuong. Established in 1962, this park is a biological treasure trove, home to a staggering array of flora and fauna, including some of the rarest primate species on Earth. As you enter the park, the humidity drops and the air fills with the rhythmic "cicada symphony." We move beyond the paved roads and hit the jungle trails. This isn't just a walk; it’s a journey through time

Very nice guided tour....

5.00Very nice guided tour. Got picked up around few minutes before 9:30am. We made our way to the tour office for paperwork and then made our way to the national park. We then began our way deep into the park and started trekking for about 2 hours or less. Lunch was served as promised though only a small portion but was enough. The primate and turtle guide was 160k VD but was worth it. We then made our to the bear sanctuary which was a quick stop. Overall would really recommend anyone to do this tour.
It was an great experience
