Brilliant trip from start to finish. The transport was on time and was very comfortable. We were met by our guide who was very friendly and informative through out the day. The climb was good and the views incredible. The biking was fun and meant we got to explore off the beaten path which we couldn’t access via the bus. The food was really good at the lunch spot and plentiful. The boat ride along the river and through the caves gave for some stunning photo opportunities. The temple visit was informative of some of vietnams early history. All in all I’d definitely recommend this trip. As it was a small group tour there was only a maximum of 8 of us which gave it more of an intimate feeling. Also due to the small group it meant we could set off earlier and hit all the main attractions before the big tour companies arrived.

Nien was our humorous and knowledgeable guide for this full-day Ninh Binh excursion covering Hang Mua peak and cave, a Tam Coc boat tour, cycling to a local farmer’s house for a visit, and finally Hoa Lu temple. It was a very hot day (42 degrees celsius!) and Nien and our driver Hai made sure our comfortably air-conditioned minibus was additionally provisioned with cold bottles of water in an ice-filled cooler box. Cycling was optional, and 7 out of the 9 people in our group ended up opting to go to the farmer’s house via our minibus due to the heat. What I really appreciated was how Nien never made the remaining 2 of us who wanted to cycle feel like we had to choose to forego cycling and go along with the rest of the group in the minibus — he sincerely asked us what we preferred and I’m truly grateful for this because the cycling bit, although short, turned out to be my favourite activity of the day. Lunch was included in this tour (served family style) and we were thankful that it was in an air-conditioned restaurant with clean restrooms.

The best way to see the highlights of Ninh Binh! This itinerary is well planned and makes sure you don’t visit the stops at super crowded times. Our tour guide Nien was great and added fun facts and humor! I liked how he gave us some free time to explore alone as well.
