DAY 1: INTO THE FOREST

Arrive at Cat Tien Jungle Lodge around noon and check in to your riverside room.

After a relaxing lunch at the lodge restaurant, begin your first nature walk in the national park. Trek to visit the Ancient Tung Tree, the Go Tree, and the Ben Cu Rapids, where you’ll discover the diverse flora and peaceful landscapes of the lowland rainforest.

Return to the lodge by late afternoon for some rest. After dinner, join the Night Safari Tour to spot nocturnal wildlife – including deer, civets, porcupines, and maybe wild boars – using spotlighting from an open vehicle.

In the afternoon, return to the lodge for a relaxing swim in the eco-pool or visit the herbal garden. Before sunset, take a short walk to a nearby local village where you can interact with residents and sample traditional southern highland cuisine.
