Escape the concrete jungle of Hanoi and journey into the prehistoric heart of Vietnam. Cuc Phuong National Park, the country’s oldest protected nature reserve, is a sanctuary of biodiversity where limestone mountains pierce the clouds and thousand-year-old trees stand guard over the rainforest. This immersive full-day tour offers a rare opportunity to witness rare wildlife, trek through untouched jungle, and support vital conservation efforts in one of Southeast Asia’s most important ecosystems.
Your adventure begins with a private journey to the Endangered Primate Rescue Center, where you’ll meet some of the world’s rarest monkeys and langurs. From there, you’ll dive deep into the rainforest to explore the Turtle Conservation Center and trek to a legendary 1000-year-old tree. Whether you are a nature photographer, a birdwatcher, or an eco-conscious traveler, this tour provides a profound connection to the wild, natural landscapes of Vietnam.
Visit the Endangered Primate Rescue Center: Witness dedicated conservationists in action as they protect and rehabilitate rare langurs and monkeys, many of which are found nowhere else on Earth.
Trek to the 1000-Year-Old Tree: Embark on a rewarding jungle hike to stand in the presence of a colossal ancient Oak tree, a living monument to the park’s long history.
Turtle Conservation & Education: Learn about the vital efforts to save Vietnam’s rare turtles and tortoises from extinction at the park’s specialized observation center.
Magnificent Karst Landscapes: Marvel at the dramatic limestone mountains that rise majestically above green rice terraces and the traditional stilt houses of the Muong hill-tribe.
Immersive Jungle Trekking: Spend an hour hiking through a “matrix” of vascular and non-vascular plants, listening to the symphony of exotic birds and spotting wildlife listed in the Red Book.
Authentic Forest Lunch: Enjoy a traditional Vietnamese meal at a local restaurant within the park, featuring fresh regional ingredients (vegetarian options available).
Private Hanoi Departure Your guide greets you at your hotel for the 2-hour scenic drive to Ninh Binh, heading straight for the gates of the rainforest.

Rainforest Refuel Enjoy a typical Vietnamese lunch at a local restaurant near the park center, surrounded by the sights and sounds of the forest.
Trek into the Heart of the Wild Drive deeper into the park center to begin your trek. Follow the jungle trails, breathe in the oxygen-rich air, and photograph the “1000-year-old tree” and the diverse flora.
Journey Back to the City Emerge from the jungle and relax in your private vehicle for the return trip to Hanoi.
Hotel Drop-off Arrive back at your accommodation with a newfound appreciation for Vietnam’s natural heritage.
Cuc Phuong is the “Green Lung” of Northern Vietnam. While most tours stay on the rivers of Ninh Binh, this expedition takes you off the beaten path and under the canopy of a primary rainforest. With a private guide to point out hidden wildlife and explain the park’s complex ecosystem, you’ll get a much deeper, more personal experience than any group tour could offer.
The jungle is calling and the ancient trees are waiting! Don’t miss the chance to see Vietnam’s rarest primates and most beautiful rainforest. Book your Cuc Phuong National Park Full-Day Adventure today!
