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 didnt catch it. How much they charge?

@@cnachopchopnewsagency The video shows the price of 3k at the end. Money comes and goes, but this experience will last long for sure.

@@cnachopchopnewsagency5000$ and a long waiting list.

How experienced does someone need to be to hike something like this

@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.

Is there any vertical climbing that’s challenging? Saw a bit towards the end of the video with 5 hours left

How much do you spend on this cave trip?

@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.

But they are such copy cats though. There's a saying among Viets "If 1 viet does it, 100 viet has to do it"

​@@DecrepitBidenUnfortunately the truth, they have quite a case of herd mentality. Speaking as a Vietnamese.

I was thinking the same. Just the logistics of that, if in a western country, would be unfathomable. That food looked amazing and all fresh.

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!

​@@salubriousflowCome to Vietnam and enjoy delicious cheap dishes, we don't mind welcoming tourists.🎉

Bro you can’t be broke & mad 💀 hating on people who use their money they earned is WILD

@@tajaunchristopher6590 lol when you don’t read the comment correctly

@@syzygy_op6071 nah I read it he changed his perspective and likes it now, and I still stand by my statement 💀

​@@tajaunchristopher6590 u must be rich or living in a rich country.

It’s the best!!

Sound great! Hope you will have an unforgettable experience!

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.

you are not paying only for the expense, You are paying for the locals to sustain the cave, keep it the way it is, paying for other research and study about the ecosystem in the cave (Son Dong is so isolate that it has its own ecosystem unlike anywhere in the world) , paying for all the supporters, volunteers, people who truly love the nature beauty to step up and against those capitalist corporation - whom are still trying to build a cable cap, or put the cave in full open, selling ticket into the cave just to destroy it (it happens just a few years ago). Yes, it's expensive, but to keep it the way it is, it's also a lot of effort that can not be priced.

@ssaaddyy I think you need to re read my comment. I did not say at any point it's expensive. The total and utter opposite in fact. Your preaching to the priest so to speak 😂

Đó ko phải là đầu bếp, người VietNam chúng tôi, khi trưởng thành ai rồi cũng sẽ biết nấu ăn và đa phần nấu rất ngon

They are not actually chelfs, I think as it isn’t really hard to find a real good cook around in VN.

@huyminh832 - agree. They did make beautiful food though 😍
