5.00After going on a small group day trip to Ninh Binh the day before, we weren’t sure how a large tour group (~50) would go. However, we were all thoroughly happy with the experience. Although the timing was relatively short at each stop, it felt like enough. The sunset cruise back was also relaxing and beautiful. Ben our tour guide was the best! He was funny, knowledgeable, and very personable. He made the trip great!
Amazing trip, amazing Ben😃
