Great tour

Published on Nov, 2024

Tom was an amazing tour guide! Very good tour we saw and learned a lot. Had very good and interesting food. We ride the bike. Had nice walk to the view point.

Intimate and Authentic Experience

Published on Feb, 2024

Though this tour was one of the most expensive for Ninh Binh, we definitely could see the differences in service, quality, and attention. The van was very luxurious, new, and clean. The seats reclined and additionally had footrests. The driver drove very safely and took routes to avoid traffic. Oftentimes other bus drivers speed and are more reckless. However, the particular driver was very careful and efficient. Our tour guide Hung was extremely attentive, detailed, and sweet. We could tell he really loves his job, and he was very well versed in history whilst adding his own personal touch. The experience was very nice as it didn't feel too crowded or touristy. Everything was much more intimate as opposed to the regular tourist traps. For instance, the biking experience through Tam Coc, the stop by a village home to see their life style, the canoeing through Ninh Binh. Perhaps our travel on Monday made a difference as the areas weren't as overflowing with people. Overall a great experience. It is worth the extra few dollars for exceptional service.

Take a trip with Hung.

Hung was our guide. Excellent spoken English and guided us excellently to a very enjoyable and informative day. Thank you very much Hung and we hope to travel with you again.

Best tour guide Mr Hung

We had a wonderful experience during this tour. A private group in limousine. Lunch was in a place in Tum Coc. Everything was smoothly conducted by him. Recommended

A great way to spend a day

Published on Feb, 2024

If you're thinking of visiting Ninh Binh for just a day, I'd recommend this tour. A limo bus, which was comfortable and clean, picked us up from our hotel in the Old Quarter well within the time slot the tour operator gave us. So glad they were punctual. Our guide, James, was attentive and looked out for us all. He gave us interesting bits of information on the places we visited. The Trang An boat tour was for me, the highlight of the tour. It was incredibly peaceful passing through the caves in near silence. The local women rowing the boats were eager to point out unusual cave formations and happy to take photographs of us during the boat ride. We weren't obliged to tip the rowers but many did out of appeciation to our rowers, who were sincere and warm, despite the language barrier. Cycling in the countryside was great fun and the bicycles provided, in good condition. It could have been a longer ride though- perhaps 40 minutes instead of the 15 minutes alloted. The food provided at lunch tasted good especially the Vietnamese fried spring rolls. Jessie, who attended to my questions pre-tour, was amazingly helpful and efficient and gave me a very good first impression of the company running the tour.
