Dong Hoi, is the stopover town for going to Vietnam's famous Phong Nha Ke Bang national park. It is full of all sorts of hotels and is popular with Vietnamese holidaymakers.

Dong Hoi is an untouristy seaside town that is also the closest town to the famous caves and river cruises of Phang Nha Ke Bang national park.

Be careful with the local inhabitants. We didn't have a single friendly meeting and were treated like walking wallets. There are so many more beautiful things to see in Vietnam that it's not worth stopping here.
I'd like to give an insight into Hué, a tourist town that was once an imperial city and is famous throughout the country for its food! But what tourists often don't realise is that there are numerous wonderful sites just a few kilometres from this town that are seldom visited but are nonetheless authentic and magnificent
Blue Hmong, Red Dao, Black Lolo... The ethnic minority groups living in the misty mountains of Northern Vietnam form a true patchwork quilt of different cultures. Going to meet them is guaranteed to be an intense trip that would only equal coming into contact with other ancestral peoples.
