    Our guide Vu (Victor) was very helpful, funny and shared a lot of information. Our driver was very nice too! Overall the tour is well organized and delivers what is described. I only expected to see more from the temples and village, but we saw the main thing. I would recommend it!

  • Good tour in Ninh Binh

    The guide was really competent and funny. He explained to the group a lot of things about the Vietnamese culture. The only negative note, they gave us water in the bus that was hot. When the temperature is more then 30 degrees, I would recommend to bring a fridge with fresh water Also it would be great to spend more time in Mua cave, 1 hour is really tight

  • Great day out

    This tour was both fun and well organized, and our guide was very knowledgeable about the different sites we visited. While the day was certainly long, every spot we went to made it feel worth it. Leaving on the earlier side from Hanoi helped to cut down on the crowds, so I definitely recommend the early tour if possible. Really super fun—biking, boating, hiking up to a beautiful vista, visiting the old capital… a lovely glimpse of rural Vietnam.
