Fun fact, leeches can get your legs through the socks! Our group was given the choice of easy hike vs very cool adventurous jungle trek and we excitedly took the latter. Leeches aren’t as scary as they seem tbh, you don’t feel the pain but should sanitize the wound when you get a chance. Our guide Viet and driver did an amazing job. The tour was very informative and fun. He showed us walking stick bugs, and I found many more other bugs being a nature enthusiast :) Viet also wanted me to share this photo of him next to a big tree which was the final point of a hard hike

We booked the day before and everything was perfect. Our guide. Viet, our guide took the time to give us lots of explanations throughout the day about the flora and fauna of Vietnam. From the different species of monkeys and their characteristics to stick insects and spiders, we learned a lot today. Viet had brought a cooler, so we had access to fresh water all day, which was a big help when it's as hot as it was today (36°C and above). My friend and I chose not to eat lunch, but we bought cold drinks at the restaurant for 15,000 dong a can. The hike is accessible, but you should wear long pan

We had a wonderful time with our guide Viet - he was so knowledgeable about the primates and pointed out so many fascinating insects, birds, lizards, plants and trees. There were so many interesting things to see at the primate center, cave and rainforest. Would highly recommend.

Danny Pham was excellent. He was knowledgeable and spoke good English. It started to rain during the tour and he got rain ponchos for everyone on the tour. None of the other tour guides took care of their clients as well as Danny. Keep in mind that this is a moderately strenuous hike. You’ll be going up and down a LOT of steps. Highly recommend.
