What To Expect
Old Quarter
6:30 - 6:45 AM, you get picked up from your hotel or meeting point. Waking up early for this tour will ensure that you have the best day ever for three reasons. ● We can avoid the heavy traffic in Hanoi. Navigating through the busy city center can be time-consuming during rush hour. However, if we depart at 6:30 AM - 6:45 AM, we can bypass this congestion and reach Ninh Binh in just 20 minutes, saving us precious time. ● Being early birds allows us to beat the crowds at the tourist sites. We can enjoy the attractions without encountering many people or waiting in long queues. This way, we can maximize our time and fully immerse ourselves in the experience. ● Starting our morning hike up to Mua cave early helps us beat the heat of the day. We can enjoy the stunning panoramic view of the area while feeling refreshed and energized. "Early to bed, early to rise," let us assist you in having a fantastic day by waking up early and experiencing the best that this tour has to offer.
Mua Caves
After a 2-hour car journey from Hanoi, it's time for us to engage in some physical activity by ascending the magnificent natural Great Wall of Mua mountain, as well as exploring the Mua cave. This location offers the most optimal spot to admire the breathtaking panoramic view of the surrounding area. Additionally, embarking on an early hike would allow us to avoid the oppressive heat and the large crowds that gather later in the day. As the day progresses, the heat intensifies and the site becomes heavily thronged by hundreds of thousands of tourists, all due to its viral fame. If you don’t like the touristy hike, alternatively, we have a 300-step, rugged hidden gem hike at the holy and secret mountain where you could feel the serenity of nature and breathtaking panoramic views of the mountains, forest, and surrounding villages.

5.00What an outstanding day with Chris and Lucky from the onset. Their car for our hydration, flexibility in the day and wonderful knowledge was outstanding. Leaving early is a must in the heat - very very grateful for the wonderful day. The transport is next level in comfort - we met some other great travellers and came home tired, but very satisfied. Thank for you a terrific day!!

5.00This tour was excellent from start to finish. Everything was very well organized, and the pacing was just right – we never felt rushed, but we also didn’t have to wait around between activities. Lunch was delicious, fresh, and flavorful, with a diverse selection including fish, meat, vegetables, and rice – something for everyone! Our guide, Louis, was amazing. He spoke excellent English, was very knowledgeable, attentive, and had a great sense of humor. He answered all our questions and made sure everyone was having a great time. Highly recommend this tour – and a big thank you to Louis for making it such a wonderful experience!

5.00Minh was an amazing tour guide. My family of 4 along with 3 other guests all enjoyed the tour and experience it together as a close knit group. Minh is very friendly and knowledgeable throughout our tour. Everything was amazing, from the hike to the river boat ride and ending it with an adventurous Vespa ride around the back side of town. My boys enjoyed every second of the Vespa as a passenger. Thank you Minh for our experiences. Jason
