Overview

This journey into the depths of the jungle requires porters, safety advisers & guides.

You’ll explore the entire length of Hang Over and Pygmy Cave – a sister of Hang Son Doong. Hang Pygmy is considered the fourth largest cave in the world with a tropical jungle inside.

The caves are masterpieces of what nature can create, with otherworldly landscapes. Make your way through the tropical Jungle inside Pygmy Cave before setting up camp underground.

Marvel at enormous stalagmites & statuesque stalactites rising from the ground & hanging from the ceiling like an alien species.
