    The tour fits an incredible amount of activities for only one day. Jerry is a fantastic and funny guide who provided info on all the sites we got to explore. The boat ride through the river was the highlight of the trip. Absolutely worth the time if you are visiting Hanoi

    Thu gave us an action packed, fun and informative trip in a small group of 9 people. We took in some fantastic views and hiked, cycled and were rowed in a sampan at Tam Coc for just over an hour. The overall trip was about 10 hours but is well worth doing.

    We had an amazing time with Thu for a day trip throughout Ninh Binh and Tam Coc. Would definitely recommend to those after an adventure and something different. The views were definitely worth the climbs, plus the boat tour and lunch was a perfect pit stop in between. 10/10 would recommend.
