    What a great day we had from the moment we were picked up at our hotel everything was perfect and ran like clockwork. Sunny was very informative about Vietnam and the tour in particular. The information that he shared was invaluable. He is also very entertaining. A big shout out to our coach driver as well. Cannot recommend this trip highly enough

  • A Wonderful Day in Ninh Binh with Ricky and Hoa

    Anonymous,May 5, 2026

    I had a wonderful time with our excellent guide, Ricky, and our driver, Hoa. The tour included Hoa Lu Ancient Capital and Temple, village cycling, a beautiful Vietnamese lunch buffet, a 1.5-hour Tam Coc bamboo boat trip, and the Mua Cave hiking experience. Every activity was very fulfilling, and I was able to fully enjoy the beautiful scenery both physically and mentally. It was truly an amazing tour. Our guide, Ricky, taught us about the history and stories behind each place, as well as Vietnamese culture. His explanations were very interesting, enjoyable, and informative. After the Mua Cave hike, they prepared nicely chilled water for us on the bus, which felt incredibly refreshing. I also really appreciated that they gave us frequent toilet breaks. The buffet lunch was very delicious, and I enjoyed many kinds of Vietnamese dishes in a comfortable restaurant. I joined the tour by myself, so I was a little nervous at first. However, Ricky and Hoa were both very cheerful and friendly, and they created such a welcoming atmosphere that it was easy to interact with others. Thanks to them, I was also able to meet some wonderful new friends during the tour. I had been staying in Hanoi for about a month, but this was my first time joining a tour. After having such a fulfilling experience, I honestly wished I had joined one earlier. When I come back to Hanoi, I would love to join the same tour again. I had a truly wonderful day. Thank you so much!

  • Great value day tour Ninh Binh

    Have just spent a fabulous day on board with our tour guide Sunny. His knowledge and love for his local culture was great to see and his willingness to share this information with us all made the whole experience well worth while. Each stop was truly beautiful but the highlight was the caves. Walking up the mountain, although strenuous, was well worth it for the stunning panoramic views. Lunch had a great variety of fresh local foods & was delicious. The coach is very modern, spacious and comfortable. All in all a great way to experience this wonderful area.

    Ai Tokyo,May 4, 2026

    - Review from Tripadvisor

    We had a great day! The schedule is full of things to do, but there is plenty of time in all places without panicking and the content is substantial. The lunch buffet had a lot of Vietnamese food to choose from, and they were all very good. Both our guide Ricky and the driver were very friendly and always cheerful to make sure our guests enjoyed it safely. I was on my own, and it was very helpful to be able to talk to other participants casually. The caveats are: · Have about 50k cash available for chips if you want to give it ・Due to the heavy morning rush hour traffic (it usually took 55 minutes instead of 10 minutes), it is better to leave well in advance of your meeting time That means. It was a memorable day. When I come to Hanoi again, I want to join the same tour.
