Joyful trip covering history, hiking and culture mese culture

Published on Nov, 2024

We were lucky with the weather was overcast as in would have been hard work in the sun. The mist hugged the hills making it very atmospheric. Do not be put off by a little rain as it made the hiking far more refreshing than otherwise. Firstly we cycled to the emperors temple to explore and learn about the Vietnamese dynasties - super interesting with some very dramatic characters. Had a very yummy lunch... Go for the spring rolls and goat if they're on offer. We then had a leisurely boat ride but my bum was sore (bring a jumper to soften your seat ). Then we challenged ourselves to climbing both routes at tam coc - watch out steps are slippery when wet. It was a busy fulfilling tour combing history, boat ride and hiking. Victor, our guide, was witty, knowledgeable and an excellent story teller. We felt well looked after and I can see the amount of work/consideration that went into this tour. Thank you for making our trip to vietnam unforgettable, Victor and gang.

Ninh Binh adventure

Published on Apr, 2024

Amazing adventure. Thanks to Quy for being an amazing host. Loved the experience. Must book. Told us about the history of Vietnam and Ninh Binh.

Quy the man!

Published on Apr, 2024

Quy is a fantastic tour guide! Very informative, well educated on the history of Vietnam and super friendly. He made sure to look after us in every aspect. Whether it was water, AC, photos, lunch arrangements. He check in with us throughout the day to ensure everyone is fully aware of what the next stop is, informed us when we will stop for a bathroom break. The bus itself was beyond our expectations, it had a great AC, USB ports and spacious leather seats. The itinerary was sent over to us by Quy before the day of the l excursion and he checked in with us to see if we had any questions/concerns. We have done many excursions over the years and this ranks amongst the best, the same applies to Quy as a tour guide and I wish him all the best. Anyone who gets him on their excursions, will have a fantastic experience. Thank you for looking after us in such a meticulous manner.
