Braised mountain fish with turmeric, stir-fried wild forest vegetables with garlic, grilled goat meat, taro stalk soup, brown rice, and more. Rest and unwind amidst the lush, verdant scenery of the Truong Son mountains.

The vehicle will transfer you to Command Cave—a secret operational base nestled deep within the jungle, which once served as a pivotal coordination center for logistics, provisions, and strategic operations along the entire Truong Son route.

• Trek along shaded trails under the primary canopy toward Route K—a clandestine military transport path where every tree and boulder once shielded soldiers from heavy bombardment.
• Tour transit stations, historical weapon displays, road-clearing equipment, and lifelike wartime living quarters.
• Step inside Command Cave, exploring the underground network of command bunkers, medical stations, and supply depots used for years by Truong Son soldiers.
• Experience VR360 virtual reality on a military ZIL truck, recreating the intense sensation of traversing historical fire zones like wartime soldiers.

Departing the Truong Son forest, the group arrives at The Duck Tang Farm—a renowned eco-farm in Phong Nha where you can embrace slow-paced living in a charming countryside environment.

Exciting activities include:

• Riding water buffaloes, herding ducks, mud bathing, and catching fish—delightful, traditional outdoor pastimes.
• Feeding ducks, planting vegetables, picking fruit, and experiencing local rural rhythms alongside friendly farmers.
• Enjoying countryside coffee or purchasing farm specialties: wild forest honey, Phong Nha coffee, lemongrass essential oil, and more.

The Duck Tang Farm is the perfect haven to recharge, connect, and rediscover the simple pleasures of life.

The vehicle transfers you back to Phong Nha or Dong Hoi. Your journey concludes with unforgettable memories: from deep national pride when walking through historical grounds to cheerful laughter after a fulfilling afternoon exploring nature.
