A journey full of experiences - We had a great day, full of wonderful activities, moments and experiences. Our guide was able to plan the day to avoid groups of tourists and thus take advantage of a more exclusive experience. We really liked the fact that it allowed us to share moments with local people. We recommend this experience with pleasure.

Gorgeous day in Ninh Binh - This was an amazing tour. It can be quite tiring because it’s such a long tour but our tour guide Son made it all so effortless and made sure that we are all comfortable and well hydrated. He has an extensive knowledge of the history of Vietnam and we were able to learn a lot. Also super charismatic and his English is wonderful. Highly recommended.

Ninh Binh Day Tour - This was a great experience! First time in Vietnam and visiting Ninh Binh. Really enjoyed this experience and learned a lot about the history of Vietnam. We did a lot of activities and Son was really helpful, patient, and very positive. My favorite part of the tour was the boat ride with all the caves and mountains.

Unforgettable Family Adventure to Ninh Binh – A+ Guide! - We had the most incredible day exploring Ninh Binh with Son from Amazing Travel Corp! Our family of 7, including kids aged 20, 14, 11, 10, and 8, was picked up right from our hotel in Hanoi in a comfortable luxury van. From start to finish, everything was seamless, well-paced, and thoughtfully guided. Son was fantastic — warm, knowledgeable, and full of positive energy. He even climbed every step with us at Hang Mua to make sure our whole family was safe and having fun (no easy feat with 5 kids!). He made every moment engaging, sharing stories about the sites and Vietnamese culture in a way that kept even the younger kids interested. Our itinerary included: • A scenic drive from Hanoi to Ninh Binh • Climbing to the top of Ngoa Long Mountain at Mua Cave for spectacular panoramic views of the countryside • A meaningful visit to a local family home in Tam Coc — a unique cultural experience • A delicious Vietnamese lunch at a beautiful resort with stunning views • A serene 2-hour boat ride through the magical limestone caves and temples of Trang An, a UNESCO World Heritage Site We were back in Hanoi by early evening, tired but so fulfilled. This was one of the highlights of our Vietnam trip — and much of that was thanks to Son’s outstanding guidance. Highly recommend this tour for families and anyone who wants a deep, fun, and well-organized day in one of Vietnam’s most breathtaking regions!

Ninh Binh, Mua Caves, Trang An Day Trip - Very Professional outfit, Highly Recommend these guys, speak very good English, very knowledgeable, and helpful to try offer the best experience you can get. Genuine kind people.who love showing off there Country. The views are crazy good. Can see why it's unesco heritage listed, Ninh Binh. Is like Halong Bay but better and on land. And so much history in the are. I did this trip solo and for me I liked that better thats just a personal opinion as I like all the attention hahaha. But this would also be fun in a group setting. A must do if you come to vietnam in my opinion.
