The best experience! - It was such a good experience!! Thao was my guide and he was very kind and soft-spoken. Knew a lot about the culture and background of Vietnam and shared it with us. We went on a boat ride surrounded by mountains and rice fields, cycling (which was my favourite!), & finally a hike with the coolest view. Also my group was a smaller size than in my other tours and so I got to make friends easily! This is definitely a tour I would recommend to anyone visiting Vietnam!

Extremely good value for an incredible adventure - Loved this tour so much! I usually try to avoid tours because I don't like being at the mercy of someone else's itinerary but this one covered everything I wanted to do. So I gave it a shot l and I'm very glad I did. The sites we visited were amazing. We had plenty of time to explore each place and I didn't feel rushed at any point. Our guide James was an absolute gem of a man. He was extremely well organised and explained things really well. He gave me some new perspectives of Vietnam, the people and the culture. The part I was dreading, was the buffet lunch but as soon as the scent of lemongrass hit my nose I knew it wasn't going to be a basic meal experience

Ninh Binh is Your Healing Town To Go To - This trip was long and exhausting but so fun!! Our tour guide speaks English and told us many jokes and lots of history of Hanoi and Ninh Binh area. He made a difference whether your 12 hour day is going to be good or bad. There is a lot of driving but all is forgiven once you get off and get to go on a boat ride, bike ride, and a hike with an amazing view!

Excellent tour and Asian Pearl is a good company to go with - The tour was excellent, very well run and the included buffet lunch was very good. The tour guide was knowledgeable and pleasant. He advocated tipping the boat rowers, the driver, and himself, but only once and in a dignified way (unlike the guide from the Ha Long Bay day tour that I took). I think the tour companies should pay their guides and drivers more, but maybe that makes no difference in tip solicitation. I didn’t give 5 stars for my experience not because of the tour company, but because Mother Nature didn’t cooperate (it rained quite hard so we couldn’t see much); summer would be a better time and provide a better experience.

Good experience! - Pretty good, your guide Tim was great, tour was a little slow but I think that was because of the incompetence of the other people in our group.

Just be aware that you have to pay extra - Although I can recommend the area, and the tour guide was trying his best I would suggest they implement changes. We booked this because it was a small tour, which we prefer. While there, the tour guide had to go back to add more people to the tour which interrupted mid point. We were made aware of the boat rowers should be tipped. Not a problem, but than we found out from the mad woman that they didn't get paid for it at all and we should pay more.
