Awesome day trip.

Published on Jan, 2025

Excellent day trip with Bruce Lee. He was so kind and careful with us. He managed perfectly the planning to make it smooth and enjoyable. I highly recommend him.

Nien is the best!

Published on Jan, 2025

This was a highlight of my stay in Hanoi. It’s always great to get out of the city to see the countryside of Ninh Binh. Incense Village is beautiful for Photo Ops. Nien took amazing p pictures. He was so prepared from an umbrella to protect from the sun to a seat cushion for the boat ride. The driver was also nice and friendly. The car was clean and he was always waiting for us with a smile.

Incense Village Private Tour from Hanoi to Ninh Binh Old Capital

Published on Jan, 2025

Our guide Bruce Lee was great today. Was very informative about the history and meaning of all the places we visited. His English was very good so easy to understand and also very organised. Lunch which is provided in the package was very good and he made sure we had enough to eat. Private 7 seat Limo Bus was also a good way to travel with big single seats that recline and have massage controls. Thanks for an awesome day Bruce.

Amazing tour with Bruce Lee!
