Ninh Binh - I went spontaneously on a one day tour to Ninh Binh and it was very nice! Our tour guide was Thuat and he seems like he really likes what he’s doing. A really awesome day. But the buffet needs a new cook cause the food was not it at all..

A family trip with Max. - Max and Snook. Ninvin, I've been on a trip to Hammua. The three-year-old family was on a trip together and both the parents and the six-year-old son were happy. The quality of the bus was also good and it was also good to change the plans according to the weather and manage the trip. Thanks to the good guidance of Max, I have a good memory of Vietnam Ninvin :)

A day trip in Ningping is worth it - This experience is very good, came to Hanoi only to report a day tour of the local team, there is no preparation for going to Ningping to play. I found this place very beautiful, similar to the Guilin Mountain Water in Vietnam. The Lagoon Mountain is beautiful, you can see a panoramic view after reaching the summit, but the summit requires some physical strength. The second attraction is the Long An Monuments, similar to Guilin's dragon river, and there is a temple on the water in the middle of the lake. The third attraction is the Old Town Hall, which commemorates the first monastery built by the emperor who established the Vietnamese dynasty in history.
