Beautiful Nimh Dinh - We had an outstanding time on this tour. Our guide, Thom was really knowledgeable & fun to talk with.
It was all great; the visit to a traditional house showing how rice is processed & having tea with the owner, climbing the 500 steps to the dragon - what a view, cycling lovely flat countryside, yummy lunch, restful boat ride thru caves & finally the old capital.
Thom & the driver, Jerry, couldn't have been better hosts.

Great one day tour of Ninh Binh - The tour was very well planned. The guide was informative and was able to answer all our questions about the history and region of Ninh Binh. The driver picked us up from the hotel in Hanoi and the ride to Ninh Binh was smooth. Overall we had a great trip and we would recommend this tour for those wanting to see all that Ninh Binh has to offer!

A wonderful one-day trip to Ninh Binh - A wonderful one-day trip in a small group. Though it took 2 hours both to and from Ninh Binh, the coach was very spacious and comfortable. Travelling for that long is not a problem at all. We had a brilliant tour guide, Son, a young energetic guy who took good care of us in the entire trip and gave us a lot of information about the Vietnam history. Walking up the mountain in such hot weather needs some strength and energy. The mountain ranges were awesome. The visit to a family who has lived in a village house for over half a decade is a special experience. The boat trip to Trang An is breathing taking wirh gorgeous view of mountain ranges except that the journey was too long as the scenery on the way was more or less the same along the river. Cutting the boat trip to less than one hour will be perfect. I will recommend this trip to anybody who wants excellent service in a trip from Hanoi to Nibh Binh. I hope you will be as lucky as me to have Son as your tour guide who will offer you excellent service.

Fun-filled day in Ninh Binh - Our Ninh Binh private tour was definitely fun and great! Even if the hot weather put a limit to some activities for us, we did enjoy everything. Most of all our tour guide, Mr Son, made sure to attend to everything that we needed from the start til the end. The set lunch that's included in our package was also very good qnd authentic! Overall the experience was truly amazing and this is something our friends and I will keep forever in our memory bank! Kudos to Mr. Son and the whole team. Highly recommended.

Unforgettable day in Ninh Binh with our amazing guide, Son - We had an unforgettable day exploring Ninh Binh with our fantastic guide, Son. His perfect mix of local knowledge, humor, and warm personality made this one of the absolute highlights of our Vietnam trip.
We started at the Mua Cave viewpoint with its incredible panoramic views, followed by a peaceful lotus flower field. Son then took us on a scenic bike ride through the rice fields, ending at the oldest still-inhabited house in the village, where we were warmly welcomed by the lovely owners.
After a delicious and plentiful lunch, we explored the stunning Trang An landscape on a boat trip through caves and towering limestone mountains. The day ended with a visit to the historic capital of Hoa Lu.
Ninh Binh’s nature is breathtaking, but it was Son who truly made the experience unforgettable. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area — thank you, Son!

MUST DO IN HANOI! Beautiful views - Sun was an amazing tour guide. He has great energy! He told us a lot of the history of Vietnam which was fascinating. He has great jokes and was so pleasant to spend time with! We very much enjoyed the tour. We started with a mountain hike, saw the lotus and went for a nice bike ride. He took us to see a gentleman’s house and have tea with him (amazing family!) the boat ride was so beautiful as well. We absolutely recommend this tour.

Amazing Ninh Binh trip!! - The experience from pickup to drop off with Nam and our driver was fantastic. The vehicle was comfortable for our drive to Ninh Binh and the driver made us feel safe on the busy roads.
Nam explained our itinerary clearly and guided us through each activity. He was supportive on our walk up the mountain to the viewpoint and showed us fantastic views of the landscape.
Our lunch was delicious and well-prepared for our different dietary requirements and we were filled with lots of fresh food!
The lunch place had facilities to swim in the pool which was so refreshing in the heat.
Our boat trip was well organised and peaceful along the water and we saw stunning landscapes.
Thank you again to our tour guide Nam, and our driver for a super day!
