Authorities in the central Quang Binh province and the Vietnam Helicopter Company (VHC) have just reached an agreement to use helicopters for tourism next year.

Under the agreement, VHC will organize helicopter tours to world heritage site Phong Nha – Ke Bang national park, En cave and Son Doong cave in Bo Trach district, Tu Lan cave in Minh Hoa district and Vung Chua – Dao Yen in Quang Trach district where General Vo Nguyen Giap is resting in peace.

VHC will also offer helicopter medical services for those on adventure tours to Son Doong cave in Bo Trach district.

Nguyen Huu Hoai, chairman of Quang Binh People’s Committee, says the province wants to exploit Dong Hoi airport and its tourism potential through helicopter services.
