On the first day of your Phong Nha & Hue Tour 3 Days, your guide and driver will pick you up in Dong Hoi and take you to Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park.

On Day 2 of your Phong Nha & Hue Tour 3 Days, after breakfast, check out of your hotel and head to the DMZ Quang Tri to explore the historic landmarks of the region. Visit the Vinh Moc Tunnels, a symbol of resilience and ingenuity during the war, where you can walk through the underground tunnels that once served as shelters for villagers, complete with living spaces and military facilities. Then, visit the 17th Parallel, the historical boundary that divided North and South Vietnam, and stop at the Hien Luong Bridge and Ben Hai River, which carry the poignant memories of Vietnam's division.

Enjoy lunch before continuing to La Vang Holy Land, a revered pilgrimage site for Catholics in Vietnam. Afterward, head to Hue, where you will check into your hotel.
