Nam Cat Tien National Park 2 Days 1 Night Tour

If you love being a part of nature, and you are interested in the Wildlife conservation or an Eco-tourism, then Nam Cat Tien National Park is an absolutely must-see destination in Vietnam.

This national park is located in three provinces (Southern Vietnam): Dong Nai, Lam Dong, and Binh Phuoc with 71.920ha wide. Nam Cat Tien National Park is approximately 150km from the North side of Saigon, a perfect tranquil forest to escape from the busy city, out loud, full of confusing activities to recharge your soul batteries.

A half part of a forest cover is surrounded by Dong Nai river, so the climate is quite cool, and this old-growth forest still remains its pristine wildlife with murmuring streams and green vegetation regions; more than 1.400 species of animals and 1.610 species of plants. That’s why Nam Cat Tien National Park is recognized by UNESCO as the biosphere reserve zone of the world in 2001.
