Excellent experience at the incense village and Ninh Binh - The tour experience was fantastic and super well organized. The shuttle is super comfy, never been on such a great shuttle before. Driver was great and very careful. And the tour guide (Bruce Lee 😉) was incredibly knowledgeable and kind. He shared so many insights from the places we visited and I absolutely loved the whole experience. Thank you!

Ninh Binh Tour with Tom (10/10) - We’ve got a nice experience for this trip, Ninh Binh, the beautiful pics and production process from the incense village, the historical knowledge from Hua Lu Temple and the great scenery in almost 1 hour from the boat experience. Especially for the staff, Tom and Jerry, they are so kind and full of service mind, with a lot of funny and engaging stories from Tom.

We had such a great experience exploring Ninh Binh with our guide, Tom. - We had such a great experience exploring Ninh Binh with our guide, Tom. Tom is incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and brings just the right touch of humor to make the journey even more enjoyable. What we really loved was how he shared not just the highlights, but also the deeper stories behind the place - from the history of Ninh Binh and its dynasties to even local ghost stories, which made everything feel more alive and memorable. Beyond that, we had so many great conversations with him - about Vietnamese culture, different perspectives, and how cultures compare across countries. It didn’t feel like a typical guided tour, but more like traveling with someone who genuinely enjoys sharing and exchanging ideas. We love it!!!

Incense eye-opener - From the very beginning, Timmy was welcoming and knowledgeable. I appreciated his local insights and thoughtful explanations. His passion for the area was contagious and made the entire experience more meaningful. The pace of the incense tour was perfect—and Timmy adapted when we asked to stop at a war museum on the way back. I would recommend Timmy to anyone looking to explore the area in a deeper, more engaging way.
