Wonderful trekking and kayaking off the beaten track in a wonderful and secluded lagoon. Zoë's a very skilful and thoughtful guide. I enjoyed every minute of this trip and recommend Cat Ba pathfinder to everybody who wants to have a non-touristy and sportive experience in nature

Amazing experience! A really good guide who will make you feel safe. Beautiful views and demanding hike, but don’t be too scared about it.

Booked: Half-day Jungle Trek & Kayak Adventure in Cat Ba

It's clear these guys love what they do from the get-go, and honestly it pays dividends. I spent a lovely day with Bee exploring the island, he and the rest of the crew live and breathe adventure and are just excited to take people with them. Would absolutely recommend to anyone wanting off the beaten track

I'm really glad that Seek Sophie has experiences in Cat Ba because I think it's such a gem that people really should not miss when you're in Vietnam! We went during rainy season and a full moon night, so the bioluminescent plankton wasn't bioluminescing very strongly. So those aren't prime conditions (you should go when its deeper in winter like Jan-Feb and when it's NOT a full moon), so do your research and plan in advance if you really want to see the immense like blue colour! Nevertheless we still saw a bit of it of the plankton glow and that still was pretty :) The highlight for me was actually going onto the boat, seeing the fishing village, seeing sunset meeting new people. And kayaking surrounded by the mountain views and enjoying the beautiful like moonlit sky - I thought was already beautiful in itself. It was so surreal. Very very very peaceful and I enjoyed that a lot!

Really really lovely guide, spoke a perfect English and was really trying to make us enjoy the experience as much as possible. Swimming at sunset was amazing, as much as kayaking in the dark to scout the bioluminescent plankton. They even arranged a taxi to bring us back to the hostel that was not initially in their plan for the bus to come back to.
