Great tour! A must do from Hanoi to see Ninh Binh. The mountain climb and the boat tour of the caves was fantastic. Lunch was great too. We did the private tour so we could customize and go at our own pace. Leaving earlier - as recommended by our guid - was great. Highly recommend tour guid Jason and driver Winwin

Jason and the driver Win Win were excellent. Jason was very professional and accommodating to our requests. He speaks very good English and was very informative. We enjoyed visiting the vast Bai Dinh Pagoda complex in comfort and the Trang An boat ride route 3 that Jason recommended. The route took us through some amazing long caves. It was exciting and fun. We chose not to go to the Mua Cave for mobility issues. The tour was just the right duration for us ( 8 am to 19:00). It made our Hanoi trip trully memorable. Highly recommended.

Wonderful experience! Great communication. On time. 10/10 would absolutely recommend. Our guide “Jason” was very knowledgeable. He went out of his way to make sure we had a a great day. Fully private tour was well worth the extra money. We went right to the front of most lines and were treated like VIP’s.

We had a fabulous day with Jason on our Ninh Binh private tour. Glad we made the decision to do a private tour as there were so many big tour groups. Jason was excellent in navigating the crowds at Bich Dong, Hoa Lu and Mua Cave, especially as there was a light shower of rain which makes coming down the 500 stairs precariously slippery. Strongly advise walking poles to help you if you’re older or have knee/hip issues. Highlight was the boat ride through the caves, a lot of fun and a very relaxing way to see the scenery. The shot bike ride was also good going through the rice paddies and stopping for some great scenic photos. if you haven’t ridden in a while, the seats are very hard ;) The restaurant for lunch was very good and accommodated our food preferences. All in all we had a great day, thanks to Jason, and our very professional driver.

Jason and Winwin are an excellent team and gave us the most amazing day touring Ninh Bin. Jason knowledge was mind blowing and I never seen better driving skills than we saw with Winwin. They even went out of their way and made a special trip for us. Made our first trip to Vietnam very memorable. Highly recommend the both of them.

Team Jason and win-win. Has provided us with an unforgettable experience. The VIP treatment ensured a smooth changeover, which enhanced our whole experience. Jason's kneeling eyes for the safety of our party during my 500 steps were very visible.Highly recommended.
