In short

Phu Quoc National Park does not charge an entrance fee, and a guide is strongly advised rather than required. Go in the dry season, November to April, and start before 7:00 AM.

What it is and who it suits

Phu Quoc National Park does not charge an entrance fee, and a guide is not described as mandatory, but local sources advise against going alone and recommend a local guide. The park lies in the northeast of the island, about 12 km from the centre of Phu Quoc. It suits fit walkers, nature lovers and families who stick to easier trails.

The park covers over 36,000 hectares, around 70% of the island’s total area. It was established in 2001 and recognised by UNESCO in 2006 as part of the Kien Giang Biosphere Reserve.

What is included

Entry itself has no fee. Guides, transport and extras belong to each operator, so we do not promise them. Ask:

  • Is a local guide included, and for how many hours?
  • Is a pick-up and return transfer included? Some operators include one; ask whether your quote does.
  • Is water, a packed snack or insect protection included?
  • Which trail is planned, and how long is the walk?

Price range

We hold no verified prices for this page, so we do not quote a range. There is no entrance fee, but a guide and transport depend on date and operator, and we confirm the exact price on WhatsApp before you pay.

How to book and what to check

Message us on WhatsApp with your date, group size and fitness level. We arrange it with local partners and confirm the exact price in the chat before you pay.

Check these before you go:

  • Opening hours and last entry: we confirm the current ones for your date.
  • Entry: no fee reported. Certain areas may have specific regulations, so follow the park guidelines.
  • Trails: Mount Chua (603 m, the highest peak) and the Ganh Dau Trail with coastline views. Streams such as Suoi Da Ban, Suoi Da Tranh and Suoi Da Ngon are good to cool off after trekking.
  • Getting there: about 12 km from the centre of Phu Quoc, by taxi or shuttle from the airport. Parking: ask us.
  • Season: dry season, November to April. From March to June the forests show red camellias and purple myrtles.
  • Time: start before 7:00 AM so the walk ends before dark.

Safety and conditions

Avoid going alone and travel in a group or with a local guide. Stick to marked trails and do not disturb wildlife. Download maps or guides of the park before you go, in case you lose the trail.

Wear anti-slip shoes with ankle support, and use repellent against leeches and mosquitoes. Carry 1 to 2 litres of water or electrolyte drinks for long treks. In the rainy season, trails get slippery and muddy.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to book a guided tour in advance?
Local sources do not describe a booking requirement, but they advise against going alone and recommend a private tour with a knowledgeable local guide for a smoother visit. Guide prices depend on date and operator. Message us on WhatsApp and we confirm availability and the exact price in the chat before you pay.
Is entry free or paid?
Local sources report that Phu Quoc National Park does not charge an entrance fee. A guide, transport or a tour is separate and depends on date and operator. Certain areas may have specific regulations, so follow the park guidelines and confirm the current rule on WhatsApp.
What are the main trails and viewpoints?
One popular trekking route climbs Mount Chua, the highest peak on Phu Quoc at 603 m. The Ganh Dau Trail is a must-see trail with views of the coastline. Streams such as Suoi Da Ban, Suoi Da Tranh and Suoi Da Ngon are good for cooling off after trekking.
What is the best season and time of day?
The dry season from November to April is best, with safer dry forest trails. In the rainy season from May to October, trails become slippery and muddy. October or May are shoulder months with fewer crowds. Treks should start before 7:00 AM so the walk ends before dark.
How do I get there and where do I park?
The park lies in the northeast of the island, about 12 km from the centre of Phu Quoc. From Phu Quoc International Airport, reach it by taxi or shuttle. Parking is not confirmed in our sources, so ask us on WhatsApp for the trailhead you plan to use and the drop-off.
Is it suitable for families and seniors?
Yes, on shorter walks. Longer treks such as Mount Chua are demanding, so ask us for an easier route. Take 1 to 2 litres of water or electrolyte drinks for long treks, wear anti-slip shoes with ankle support, and stay on marked trails. Travel in a group or with a guide.
