      After a thirty-minute drive, you'll reach Tham Phay Cave, the hike starts with a steep uphill leading into the forest. Some rock at the top, and then a similar slope before the trail fades and you enter the valley. Turning west of the trail is a large patch of rock for you to find your way through, with the help and direction of your guide and safety team. The precarious entrance is at the end of the forest. Enjoy some snacks before starting to explore the cave.

      Tham Phay Cave is a beautiful stream cave with two underground river tributaries, where you will experience narrow passages, craggy mountains and some deep pools with very nice photo opportunities. Plants and algae cover many calcite formations. Going deeper into the cave, you will find many unusual features of the cave such as the ceiling dome and many layers of rock, giving the walls a striking appearance. You will spend about five hours exploring this 5km deep river cave, which geologists have not discovered so far. Of course, we will provide you with the necessary equipment, such as helmets and powerful headlights. The cave expands considerably as you go through the original entrance and offers some great opportunities for excellent photos.

      Enjoy a few snacks before continuing the journey to explore the 2nd path of the cave system that possesses miraculous stalagmites millions of years old, dangerous sinkholes and heat flows at the bottom . Leaving Tham Phay, you will return to the cave entrance and return to the original pick up point.

The cave tour was incredible! I would have liked to visit a local market or something like that
Review of: Ba Be Nature Escape 3 days 2 nights
Mr Hung homestay was amazing. Very good driving and the driver was friendly. Very friendly and enthusiastic. Expensive for Vietnam but good volve. I wish I could have had more conversation about like in Vietnam, history, culture etc. Hien was knowledgeable and I learned a lot. I would also have loved the guide to speak visit some women who knew English. This was a great experience for our family. Thanks you!

The cave as well as the beauty of the nature and local people
Review of: Ba Be Nature Escape 3 days 2 nights
Would be nice to have fresh towels, hand towel, and floor mats. Clean and A/C was great!. Took excellent care of the children to ensure safety. We appreciated all the photography a long the trip - especially in the cave with the flash lights. We were also very happy that mr Long shared his personal photos with us. Every single person we encountered on the tour - from drivers, restaurant owners etc. They were all so very friendly and welcoming. This was an experience we will never forget
