Our full-day trip to Ninh Binh was truly one of the highlights of our time in Vietnam—thanks in large part to our amazing guide! Right from the start, his friendly, lighthearted approach made everyone feel at ease. He had a wonderful sense of humor, cracking jokes and sharing funny stories that had us all laughing throughout the day. But what really stood out was how he managed to connect with each of us personally, always ready with a smile and a helpful answer to any question. Our guide’s passion for Vietnamese culture was evident in every detail he shared. As we explored the ancient temples of Hoa Lu, he brought the history to life with vivid stories and fascinating facts. Drifting along the Tam Coc river in a bamboo boat, he pointed out hidden wonders and explained the local way of life with warmth and enthusiasm. Climbing up to the breathtaking views at Mua Cave, he encouraged us every step of the way, making sure everyone felt included and supported. The delicious local lunch—with meat, fried rice, and fresh fruits—was a highlight, and our guide made sure we understood the significance of each dish. Throughout the day, he went out of his way to ensure we were comfortable, well-fed, and having a great time. His kindness and genuine care for our experience made the trip feel personal and memorable. If you’re looking for a tour that combines laughter, learning, and a real connection to Vietnam’s rich culture, this Ninh Binh adventure is absolutely perfect. I left with a full heart, a camera full of photos, and memories I’ll cherish for years to come. Highly recommended!

Transportation clean and comfortable. Victor is fun, educational, and funny. He also gave cost tips so you couldn’t be taken advantage of. Excursions well spaced out. Only change I would make is that guide felt he can make comments about US politics, we are in vacation so let’s enjoy the country we are in.
