You will be picked up at your hotel in Ha Noi for a scenic departure to Cuc Phuong National Park, located southwest of Ha Noi. The journey takes approximately 2.5 hours (110 kilometres) to reach Vietnam's first national park, officially opened in 1960. Nestled between two limestone mountain ranges, Cuc Phuong boasts a rich ecosystem and dense forests, providing a habitat for some of Asia's rarest animal and plant species.

The adventure begins with a visit to the Endangered Primate Rescue Center, established in 1993 by the Frankfurt Zoological Society. This non-profit organization is dedicated to the rehabilitation, breeding, and conservation of endangered primates, as well as the protection of their habitats.

After enjoying a delicious lunch, venture further into the park. En route, you will explore the Cave of Early Man, an astonishing historic site dating back over 7,000 years. Next, embark on a long trek through the lush forest to discover the park's diverse plants and wildlife. You will also make stops at Cho Chi, the oldest tree in the forest, and visit the picturesque streams and waterfalls along the way.
