Fantastic fun day Fantastic fun day - We had a really enjoyable trip. Our tour guide Sōn was excellent and told us lots about the history of Vietnam. We started by cycling to a temple and saw some highlights. The lunch spot was worthy of five stars. Of course, we also went on a boat trip through caves. Just do it, you'll have a great day!

Must do tour from Hanoi - Our guide was Son. He was easy going, cracked a lot of jokes but serious about keeping us safe, on time and well informed. The trip to Huang Mua was quite tiring but the view of the boats from above was worth it. The highlight of the day was Trang An The giant rock formations and the caves on a 2 hr boat ride was amazing.

Fantastic family 2 days in Nimh Binh. - A fantastic trip and a wonderful way to start the new year. Our guide Son provided a tailor-made experience and changed and adapted the trip to fit our interests. We enjoyed the main tourist sites of the cast mountain, temples, bird sanctuary and river trip. I particularly enjoyed cycle along the waterways and fields between the mountains followed. Lunch and dinners were all excellent. I particularly appreciated the efforts Son made to cater for a severe but allergy which was a concern for us before making the trip. We also enjoyed visiting the local market, rice farm and and village community hall. Organisation was faultless and I thoroughly recommend this tour company.

Awesome Ninh Binh day trip - We traveled as a family (3 kids from 10-17yo) and had a great time visiting Ninh Binh with Son as our tour guide. The kids loved the varied activities including cycling and boating. Son provided interesting commentary, insights, information and stories. The provided multicourse lunch was amazing. We fit so much into one day without it feeling rushed. 5 stars - Highly recommended !

Excellent Tour experience - It was an absolutely splendid day and we enjoyed every moment of it. We were fortunate to have an outstanding tour guide with us — Son was truly one of the highlights of the tour, with his warm, friendly personality and excellent knowledge. The lunch was absolutely delicious, exceeding our expectations. The transport was luxurious, extremely comfortable, and complemented by an excellent and professional driver throughout the day. A fantastic experience all round — well done!
