Excellent with Victor guide - Victor is the best guide. He took us to the best viewpoint of the river, accompanied us at all times to take pictures and climbed with us the mountain. Then he accompanied us on the boats and very friendly and very good English. Delighted with it, and very good route and travel agency.

A pleasant trip with Quang Quack - Quang Quack is very nice, friendly guide who brings us to the beautiful nature, taking care from transport, meals, stay, to activities in Ninh Binh. He also offered to take photos for us. He follows the schedule well and also adjust to your desire. There is still free time to have a drink at night. Quang shows us to the more quite, less crowded boat tour which made the experience more special and calming.

Great time! Smart schedule with a very personalized experience! - We had an amazing time in Ninh Binh. Our tour guide Quang Quack created a smart schedule which enabled us to see a lot in a short time. He also picked smart moments during the day to avoid busy areas. Perfect for couples looking for a personal experience. You save a lot of time and energy by having a tour guide to show you around. You will also learn more about the history of Vietnam.

Fun tour with Quang Quack! Highly recommend - I had a fantastic and fun experience for 2 days touring trip with Quang Quack in Ninh Binh/Tam Coc. It was eye opening for me to explore a Vietnamese culture and history that Quang presented. Quang was very professional and skillful for his job. He was extremely patient with me as I am a slow biker. He’s friendly, patient and helpful with my whole trip. I highly recommend Quang Quack to my friends and family if they plan a trip to Ninh Binh/Tam Coc, Vietnam.
