Cuc Phuong & Night Safari common questions

Good to know before you go.

What is the Cuc Phuong tour?

A day and evening in Vietnam's oldest national park: the endangered primate and turtle rescue centres, a forest walk among ancient trees, and a night safari to spot wildlife after dark.

What will I see at the rescue centres?

Rescued langurs, gibbons and other primates at the Endangered Primate Rescue Centre, plus the turtle conservation programme, all part of the park's conservation work.

What is the night safari?

A guided drive after dusk to look for deer, civets, flying squirrels and other nocturnal animals, weather permitting.

Is there much walking?

There are gentle forest walks, including to the thousand-year-old tree if time allows. Good footwear and insect repellent are worth bringing.

When is the best time to visit?

It is good year round, though the butterfly season in April and May is a highlight, and the rescue centres are open all year.

How does it fit a trip?

It pairs well with a classic Ninh Binh day. See things to do in Ninh Binh and browse more tours; we will build it into your private itinerary.
