A great tour with Tu

5.00We went on a tour of Ninh Binh and visited Mua cave where we saw beautiful scenery. Then we rode bikes through picturesque rice paddies. Then we went to Trang Anh where we were whisked away on row boats through the canyons and caves. Tu was very friendly and organized. The hotel pickup was punctual and their tour vehicle had cool air conditioning and lots of room. I highly recommend a tour with Tu!

5.00We booked our private all day tour to ninh binh with Jason lam panorama travel. The driver and Jason showed at our hotel promptly and were very courtesy and friendly. Unfortunately the weather had turned and it was raining very hard. Jason showed up with rain ponchos and waited us that we would still enjoy our day and he would make it fun and he did! We went to kings temple and Jason gave us a full tour in a torrential downpour. Luckily the rain slowed and we went on a 2-hour amazing boat ride through the mountains. Thanks to Jason our boat driver point s out various points of interest and took pictures of everyone along the way. They took us for lunch and then Jason gave us an amazing bike tour through the town, it was easily my favorite part! We parked the bikes and then proceeded to climb the 500 step mountain for an amazing view! At every point Jason and the driver were there waiting to provide all the directions and support to make our experience the best! 100% this tour was the best choice we made! I 100% recommend anyone who wants to enjoy ninh binh to take this tour with Jason

5.00We had an amazing time in Ninh Bình. The boat ride was breathtaking, visiting the king temple was really interesting and gave us great insight into Vietnam’s history. We also hiked up the mountain with about 500 steps—tough but absolutely worth it for the view at the top. Our tour guide, Jason, was wonderful. He was very knowledgeable and shared great information throughout the day, which made the experience even more meaningful. He also went out of his way to take photos for us, which we really appreciated. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and we highly recommend both the tour and Jason as a guide.

A Perfect Day in Ninh Bình with Tú: Scenic Beauty, Culture, and Genuine Hospitality
cacoastguy,Apr 19, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00Vietnam Panorama Travel delivered one of the most memorable days of my trip, and a big part of that was our incredible guide, Tú. From the moment we set out for Ninh Bình, Tú brought a calm, welcoming energy that immediately set the tone. He wasn’t just guiding us—he was sharing his home. Throughout the day, he offered thoughtful insights into Vietnamese culture, history, and daily life, always with patience and a genuine kindness that made it easy to ask questions and stay engaged. Ninh Bình itself is stunning—dramatic limestone cliffs rising out of vibrant green rice fields, quiet waterways dotted with lotus flowers, and a sense of calm that feels worlds away from the bustle of the city. The boat ride was a highlight: gliding along the river while local rowers expertly navigated the water (sometimes even with their feet!) gave the whole experience a peaceful, almost meditative quality. Seeing the landscape from water level really brings out its scale and beauty. What made it even more special was how seamlessly the day flowed. From cycling through the countryside to visiting temples filled with history and atmosphere, everything felt well-paced and thoughtfully organized. Tú made sure we were comfortable the entire time, offering context at each stop without ever overwhelming the experience. If you’re considering a day trip to Ninh Bình, I can’t recommend Vietnam Panorama Travel enough. And if you’re lucky enough to get Tú as your guide, you’re in for something truly special—an experience that’s not just scenic, but genuinely meaningful.
Excellent ‘in a day’ tour. Best you can do in 10 hours!

5.00Lois & driver were great, picked us up from our hotel, vehicle was lovely, we got taken everywhere we wanted and more, saw everything we wanted with good commentary along the way. If you only have a day to cover Ninh Binh like us, this is the tour for you. For us it was worth the extra money for a private tour as you get so much more done and get back quicker. We had the whole day in Ninh Binh covered everything we wanted and the got back in time to do an evening in Hanoi and saw the trains on train street capping off an excellent day. This tour is highly recommended. Especially if you are on the clock.
Great day in Ninh binh
