Son Doong cave in Vietnam is so big that it takes 4 days to trek through. Along the way there is so much to do and see and this is one of the most beautiful places on the planet in my opinion

For the price, I see why they made this expedition a very memorable one. Without those porters, a lot would not get done. Shout out to the porters. And thank you for posting your experience, awesome video.

Exactly. I'm incredibly impressed at how much they do for the visitors. If you enjoy hiking for a few days, this trip treats you like a king. No freeze dried food, AAA service, and just a good time with the card games and how much everyone looks out for eachother.

I did this same expedition a few months ago. We must have done it a few days apart. We even had to sit on that same beach for hours waiting for the water to go down. This is hands down the most incredible trip anyone can do. It's genuinely life changing. If anyone has the opportunity to do this, do it. It will be tough, but you won't regret a second of it.

How experienced does someone need to be to hike something like this
@tylerlastname32364 ай бұрын
@viperonfire2006 I don't think you need to be very experienced. But you do need to be fairly comfortable with things like heights. There are a lot of times where you are walking along sheer ledges you can barely see the bottom of with your headlamp. I'm not in good physical shape, but I didn't have any problem physically completing the trip. The toughest part for me was the mental challenge of having wet feet constantly. If you hike occasionally and have done rock climbing a few times, you should be fine. Oxalis is incredibly helpful if you have any questions. They answer emails quickly and have tons of information about every aspect of the trip on their website.

How much do you spend on this cave trip?
@tylerlastname32363 ай бұрын
@timmehtizzle That part is the Great Wall of Vietnam. There is some near-vertical climbing at the end, but it isn't particularly difficult. I only have some basic/casual rock climbing experience and it was easy. Especially with how much the safety team helps you. It definitely takes a bit of upper body strength, but anyone who is in average physical shape should be able to do it. There is a bit of near-vertical climbing down into the cave as well, but that is even easier.

I absolutely love love Vietnamese people. They are so fun to work with and some of the most sarcastic people to be around. Are very loving and make great friends, and let’s not forget the aunties & uncles who make sure your always fed & are the best kind of judgy. What an unforgettable experience though. An an amazing video to watch!

When you go to Vietnam, you usually eat better than you do in most countries, but be wary of Vietnamese coffee served with condensed milk. It tastes so good you're 100% guaranteed to put on 6-7kg after a month lol.

Vietnamese food when prepared and cooked authentically by a skilled cook, usually tastes better than most restaurants. I know because my mum has been feeding me great food for decades. My gf used to call me fussy when we dined out, until she met mum and understood what real quality food tastes like. Now she pesters me to take her to the parents' home all the time. I'm screwed!

What an experience. Agree with everything you said: staff was AWESOME, food was great and it was truly a trip of a lifetime. For us mere mortals though, this was a HARD TRIP. Hiking on slippery sharp rocks everyday wears you out. Thanks for you post.
