00Cao Bang
Welcome to Cao Bang
Another province on the border of China, Cao Bang offers a taste of untouched Vietnam. Its remote location means that its natural beauty remains unspoiled and it is often referred to as one of the country’s hidden gems. The Ban Gioc waterfall sits on the Chinese border and offers stunning views, with water cascading over tiered limestone rocks. Visit the Nguom Ngao cave, whose towering stalagmites and stalactites give a glimpse into the region’s ancient history. For a true taste of Cao Bang, sample its famous Thang Co dish, made from horse meat and intestine stewed for hours with medicinal herbs (You’ll need an adventurous tastebud for this one). A visit to Cao Bang will leave you feeling like you have truly gotten off the beaten track and experienced authentic, rural Vietnam.
Highlights include:
- Experiencing the stunning Ban Gioc waterfall, located on the border of China
- Exploring the impressive Nguom Ngao cave
- Sampling Cao Bang’s famous Thang Co dish
- Taking in untouched natural beauty and a taste of rural Vietnamese life.

Unique, helpful, friendly way to travel!
We had wanted to travel to Vietnam, but had always heard that it can be stressful. So happy that we found the good folks at Discover Your Vietnam. The staff are native English speakers but live in Vietnam and know the country so well. They have an awesome choice of activities from which to choose, and we developed the perfect itinerary. We settled on the coastal areas, and enjoyed Qui Nhon, Nha Trang, Hoi An, Da Nang, Hue, and the totally unique and beautiful Ha Long Bay. What a wonderful trip! Can't wait to return for a visit to the southern areas.

We are wanting to travel to Vietnam to visit family as well as have unique experiences. I never would have imagined that there were as many fun and exciting things to do and see as they found for us! It was a perfect balance of relaxation and fun for our kids, while getting to travel the country. The communication was great and I loved all the pictures of the suggested locations. It is a beautiful country and I can't wait to visit!
20 Feb 2023 on Trustpilot Lauren RossWow! Booking foreign travel has never been so easy
We usually book on more package style holidays but decided to go for something different. Best decision ever. Right from the start, we were listened to and supported. Plus they do it all for you, hotels, flights, guides, all trips and excursions once in the country that are all tailored to your interests. From as soon as you touch down in Vietnam, you are looked after. It was the most wonderful holiday.
21 Feb 2023 on Trustpilot RW DownsDiscovered the delights of travel with discover your Vietnam
Thanks to the insider knowledge of the DIscover your Vietnam team, who all actually live there,we had a wonderful time exploring this great country. When you travel with them they take the time to find out what sort of experience you require and truly make your visit personal to you. Best of all they were able to recommend all those little places to eat and drink that made our journey bespoke to us. The snorkelling in Pho Qouc was brilliant afterwards the recommendation of Rory’s bar to dine in was perfect as we refected on our day looking out across the white sand and crystal clear sea.
01st April 2023 on Trustpilot Brian AnsellWe have just arrived back from our amazing holiday to Vietnam …
We have just arrived back from our holiday to Vietnam and what a great time we had. Discover your Vietnam was a great site to use, you create a Wishlist of all the things you want to do and the team put it all together into an itinerary. The Discover Your Vietnam team all live in Vietnam so their expertise and knowledge of the country was invaluable to making sure we made the best of our trip to Pho Quoc, Dalat, Hanoi and Halong Bay. We will definitely use them again when we go back to Vietnam. Thank you Danny, Rosie, Nicole and Will for making our trip so special.
