We booked our tour through Viator, and from the very start, the Vietnam Stunning Travel was exceptionally professional and responsive. They even accommodated one additional guest beyond the booking limit. Communication was smooth and consistent through email and WhatsApp. On the day of the tour, the team arrived early and was very respectful and patient with our large group. QA, our tour guide, was professional, knowledgeable, and attentive throughout the day. They arranged a private bus and a delicious lunch for us, which was a thoughtful touch. Overall, they went above and beyond to make our experience memorable. I highly recommend booking your tour with Vietnam Stunning Travel and try and get QA.

We had an absolutely wonderful day exploring the countryside with our amazing tour guide in Vietnam! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized and so much fun. We started the day visiting a beautiful lotus farm. He hiked up to the top with us. Also, gave us plenty of solo time to take photos in groups or grab a drink at the bar. He came prepared for the rainy weather with ponchos for us. Next, we went biking through the countryside, passing through a peaceful village, lush rice fields, and small local markets. Our guide made sure everyone felt comfortable and safe on the bikes. It was such an authentic and memorable way to experience rural Vietnam. We tried their local banana alcohol. The day ended with a relaxing two-hour boat ride, where we could unwind and take in the stunning scenery. Beyond being knowledgeable and professional, he was also incredibly kind, patient, and funny. You can tell he really loves what he does and genuinely cares about sharing his culture with visitors. We highly recommend this tour and especially our guide — he truly made the experience unforgettable! 🌸🚴♀️⛵️

Qa was the best guide ever! He was so friendly, personable and funny. He told us lots of stories that really helped us connect with the area and took the best photos of us. He overall made this tour a great experience. I would definitely recommend him to any family. He spoke both English and Vietnamese quite well as well.

Nin Binh was beautiful! Big shoutout to our tour guide, QA. He kept a good pace the entire day, never rushed us, was super patient, and catered to a more local experience. I had a wonderful time and hope to have him as our guide for other tours in the future. Definitely recommend!

Our day trip to Ninh Binh from Hanoi was a wonderful experience, made even better by our incredible guide, Hoa (Bruce Lee). The itinerary covered some amazing highlights, from the scenic views at Mua Cave to the peaceful sampan boat ride through Trang An, and everything ran smoothly thanks to his organization and attention to detail. It rained for much of the day, but he came fully prepared with umbrellas and ponchos for everyone, ensuring we stayed comfortable and could still enjoy the sights. He was kind, attentive, and handled everything with such care. His thoughtful preparation made what could’ve been a challenging day one of the most enjoyable parts of our trip. Highly recommend this tour and especially this guide to anyone visiting Ninh Binh!

My husband and I had a lovely time on the private tour with Bruce Lee. It was easy the whole way. We went to Ninh Binh for the day and even though it was raining they had everything we needed from umbrellas, raincoats, waters and more. He was so knowledgeable about the history and sights and we learned so much! The drive was comfortable and our driver was very experienced. We had the best food and everywhere we went he took care of us to make sure we saw the important things, and where to go to get the right photos. I’m so grateful I got a chance to experience Vietnam with this tour!

Had a fantastic time with Bruce Lee/Hoa. Very professional and really took care of us, making sure we have cold water, umbrellas, etc which really helped with the heat and walking. Driver was also safe and waits patiently at every stop. The views were great and certainly recommend this tour and guide if going Ninh Binh.
