Bath on Tour
Our tours offer campsites situated in proximity to beautiful crystal clear rivers, lakes, giving guests the freedom to enjoy a refreshing swim. The dedicated Jungle Boss team assumes the vital role of lifeguards to guarantee the safety of all customers. As part of our commitment to preserving natural resources, the use of traditional shampoo or conditioner in rivers or pools is strictly prohibited. Instead, we kindly ask our guests to use environmentally-friendly, biological shampoo throughout their journey, which will be provided on tour.
Toilet on Tour
Most of Jungle Boss tour is set in the deep jungle without modern amenities. To protect the environment and maintain cleanliness, we offer Jungle Composting Toilet that are inside a tent and consist of a regular toilet seat on top of a box. Inside the box, there's a waste bucket. Nearby, you'll find provided toilet paper a container of rice husks. After using the toilet, cover your waste with a scoop of rice husks to keep things odor-free and prevent insects. Once the buckets are full, our team will replace them and bury the waste in a designated spot in the jungle. It will naturally break down and become fertilizer. Please use these toilets for both urination and defecation to maintain cleanliness and preserve the environment. Urinating outside or in the caves is not allowed to avoid odors and harm to the cave ecosystem. We also provide dry hand-sanitizer.
Phong Nha Ke Bang has 4 seasons with Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter, it also experiences a monsoon tropical climate, with two distinct seasons: the rainy season and the dry season. The rainy season spans from September to March, while the dry season stretches from April to August. During the rainy season, temperatures can drop as low as 17°C, with January being the coldest month. In contrast, the dry season can bring higher temperatures, with May usually recording the highest temperatures, but most of it is reduced when visitors are in the jungle and the caves exploring, as it might drop to the temperature around 23°C.
When you visit Phong Nha in each season, you'll always witness a unique beauty. If you choose to visit during the rainy season, the waterfalls in the jungle and the calcite lakes inside the caves will be exceptionally beautiful and full, allowing you to capture memorable photos. On the other hand, if you opt for the dry season, your trekking routes in the jungle will be drier and more manageable. Throughout the year, we are at our most beautiful status from April to May when the weather is dry, cool, and the scenery is at its finest.
