        We had a good time with team and Hieu visiting different types of Pagoda and story of them, hiking the mountain with thousands of steps, going through beautiful Tam Coc river by friendly Vietnamese paddling with their foot which is so cool companying with beauty of nature and caves. All made this experience unique finished by a nice cycling inside the village. Good job and keep up the good work. Cheers, Sadra

        Ok. Not fantastic
        First take these 5 star reviews with a grain of salt. They really pressure you to give a 5 star review in the car on the way back and it’s awkward to refuse. Tour was fine but nothing special.

        Great tour of Ninh Binh with Hieu!
        Hieu was an exceptional tour guide who made our day trip truly unforgettable. From his in-depth knowledge of the local history to his charming personality, Hieu went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic experience. He took us to hidden gems off the beaten path, allowing us to immerse ourselves in the culture and beauty of the region. His professionalism and attention to detail were evident throughout the tour. I highly recommend Hieu to anyone looking for an insightful and enjoyable day trip. Thank you, Hieu, for an incredible adventure!

        Great day 1, chaotic day 2 - Another Reviewer
        Similar to one of the reviewer, the first day itinerary was good , however, the 2nd day is chaotic and sub-par. 1) The first day was a small group tour (around 8 pax) with good transport and meals served. 2) However, the 2nd day was lacking due to the following : - The morning taxi to transfer us to the big group was not properly communicated. We were supposed to transfer *twice*, but it was not mentioned and only the vehicle number for the 2nd transfer was communicated. Chaos ensued. - The group was bigger (about 16-20 pax) and more chaotic, therefore the experience was not as good as the first day. - The 2nd day tour also had a repeated itinerary with our first day, so we have to wait for around 2 hours for the group to return from their visit and then took the same bus to go back Hanoi , at a timing much later then expected. - Apparently, the entire 2nd day visit to Trang-An was outsourced to another company, and this was not mentioned until I asked Aloha on the chat. I believe that this should be properly communicated clearly and timely, which is missing in this case. - Understand from the other review, it seems that this is not the first time happening, and people had already feedback. It seems that nothing has been done, so if you are consider Trang-An , please take note. - Lastly, I need to point out that on both days, the guides were good, and on the 2nd day, the guide was a little apologetic on this logistic gap, and was trying to find us another bus to get back earlier, though it did not materialized. Hopefully this review will help the other made a informed choice.

        Perfect daytrip, with nice people and perfect guides.
        Today we were picked up from our hotel by our guide Maya and driver Curong at the agreed time and they gave us a day we will never forget. We specifically chose this tour operator because it is small-scale, maximum 8 people, and we took a seat in a luxury bus, which took us to the beautiful locations of Hoa Lu, Dinh Kingh temple, Muah caves, Dragon mountaun, Tom Coc by sampan boat and a bike ride to Bich Dong. It was an intensive but beautiful day, everything was perfectly taken care of, from the well-guided trips to the sights to lunch. I would like to thank Cuong for the nice and relaxing transportation and Maya for the calm and good explanation about the trip and the locations. We also had a very nice group of fellow travelers, which is certainly important. Greetings from the Rabelingjes

      The full day Ninh Binh Highlights tour is the best way to get out to see all the sites in the area in one action packed day. The tour was very well organised following the set schedule for the day. While we personally weren't so interested in seeing the temples, the rest of the tour appealed to us. That being said our tour guide Thang was very knowledgeable and spoke very good English, sharing a lot of history with us that was quite interesting none the less. We really enjoyed his energy, his knowledge on not only Ninh Binh but he shared a lot of valuable information on Vietnam, the currency, crossing the streets, bargaining, great places to eat and drink, future places to visit on a return trip to Vietnam. He also took lovely photos of us and our group of 9 throughout the day as well as having nice general conversation aside the tour. It was a perfect small size group to tour with and being on a Monday, fortunately the places we visited were quiet. We really enjoyed the hike to the peak of the mountain overlooking the paddi fields and surrounds, such beautiful green scenery. The lunch spread was ample, more than we could eat. Everything was delicious. Many dishes of which we wouldn't have ordered ourselves but glad we had tried. We enjoyed a bike ride following our lunch and particularly enjoyed the boat ride at the end which was the perfect way to end a long day of physical exertion. Again we were fortunate to boat through the caves as reviews from a week ago lead us to believe this might not be a possibility due to the water level being too high.
      However, if we couldn't have gone through the caves, it wouldn't have put a damper on the experience at all.

      Tips: You are supplied with two bottles of water throughout the day. I'd recommend bringing more as it's very hot and humid. There are plenty of opportunities to buy water at each stop that is reasonably priced so not a big deal either way.

      Bring a change of clothes for after the hike if you would like to refresh at lunch. Bring swimwear if you would like a dip at the pool at the restaurant (we just dipped out toes in)

      Bring snacks for the bus ride back to Hanoi.
      After lunch is biking, more hiking, biking and the boat ride, we were quite hungry after the afternoons activities and it was a two hour trip back. Arriving back to the hotel about 7pm. Lunch was at 12. Snacks will see you through until you can get back to your hotel to freshen up and then head out for dinner.

      Overall an amazing day out. Loved the days adventures shared with a small group and amazing tour guide. Thankyou Thang for making our trip to Ninh Binh one to remember:)

      Our trip to Ninh Bình was a wonderful experience filled with history, nature, and adventure. The day started with a visit to the Imperial City, where we were immersed in the rich cultural heritage of the region. The architecture and stories were fascinating, making it a great way to begin our journey.

      We then climbed up to the Mua Cave, where the views from the top were absolutely breathtaking. The effort to reach the summit was well worth it for the panoramic views alone. Afterward, we enjoyed a peaceful bike ride through the countryside, which gave us a chance to see the rural side of Vietnam up close, surrounded by lush green landscapes.

      The highlight of the day was the canoe ride through the serene waterways, all while our guide, Tam, provided insightful commentary and shared his deep knowledge of the area. Tam was fantastic—friendly, knowledgeable, and really added a lot to our experience.

      The tour was well organized, with comfortable transportation in a small bus, and thoughtful touches like providing raincoats, umbrellas, and headcaps for sun protection. However, it’s worth noting that while food was included, drinks were not, which we had to purchase separately.

      One downside was the cost. Initially, we were quoted around €150for the couple (€75 per person), but after rescheduling due to missing our original time, we ended up paying €190. While the day was undoubtedly enjoyable, considering the general cost of things in Vietnam, the final price felt a bit high.

      Overall, it was a day well spent, but the cost might be something to keep in mind for future travelers.

      Tour itinerary was great - Ninh Binh was beautiful, broken up with stops on the way to see temples and pagodas. We stopped for food at a lovely restaurant on the side of the river (large buffet with lots of options all included in price and accommodating for vegetarians). Lunch followed by boat tour along the river and cycle through the rice fields (amazing views). Our tour guide Augustine was very helpful and knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend.

      Great tour which included visits to the temple and pagodas, hiking to great view points, cycling, boat trip to the caves and lunch. Thang our guide was fantastic, explaining Vietnamese history, culture and traditions and despite 2 downpours making it a really fun day for us all. We were also lucky to have a great bunch on board (10 of us in total) to share the experience. Transport was excellent. Luxury minibus was very comfortable, with WiFi, usb charging on board and driver did a great job in getting us back to Hanoi in time for 7.30 dinner reservation. Thanks for a great day Lisa and David.

      Today I went on the Ninh Binh Highlights Tour from Hanoi, and it was an unforgettable experience! Our host, Tam, was truly outstanding – his energy was infectious, and he kept everyone entertained with his fantastic sense of humour. Tam’s knowledge of the area was impressive, and he made sure we didn’t miss any of the highlights along the way.

      The itinerary was perfectly paced, allowing us to soak in the stunning landscapes, visit historical sites, and enjoy a boat ride through serene waters. Tam’s enthusiasm made each stop memorable, and he shared fascinating insights about the history and culture of the places we visited. His personal touch really made this tour stand out.

      Overall, it was a well-organised, fun, and educational day, with Tam’s charisma and humour adding a special touch. I’d highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Hanoi – it’s a must-do!

      Tour with Hieu - An Unforgettable Experience in Ninh Binh

      I had the pleasure of exploring Ninh Binh with Hieu as our tour guide, and I can't recommend him enough! From the moment the tour began, Hieu's passion for his hometown and deep knowledge of its history and culture shone through. He guided us through some of Ninh Binh’s most breathtaking sites, including Trang An, Tam Coc, and Hoa Lu, sharing fascinating insights and stories that truly enriched the experience.

      Hieu's warm and friendly personality made the entire tour feel personal and engaging. He went above and beyond to ensure everyone was comfortable and having a great time, offering tips for the best local food, and even helping us capture the perfect photos at each scenic spot. His command of English was excellent, and he answered all of our questions with patience and detail.

      The highlight of the tour was the boat ride through Tam Coc, where Hieu explained the significance of the landscapes and helped us appreciate the cultural and natural beauty of the region. We also enjoyed a scenic hike to Hang Mua Peak, and Hieu’s local knowledge made the journey smooth and fun.

      If you're planning a trip to Ninh Binh, I highly recommend booking a tour with Hieu. His expertise, enthusiasm, and genuine care for his guests made our experience unforgettable!

      The views are amazing and worth seeing. The tour guide, Maya, was very nice and gave a lot of explanations. She was with us the whole time and tried her best to accommodate our needs. Two issues were the weather and the overwhelming schedule. If you get a rainy day, you will get wet and cold. The boat trip was 1.5 hours and even though they give you a rain coat and an umbrella, you will get very wet. The moment the boat trip finishes you get right on the bikes for a 2km ride. The itinerary says you get to choose between a bike, motorbike or the van. This was not the case. If you want to see the last attraction, you need to cycle. We were drained after this tour. Happy I saw all those beautiful views but I was not prepared for this tour.

      I requested a private tour as I was pressed for time and still wanted to fully explore Ninh Binh. This was at the end of a two week trip where I had been on many sightseeing tours, so I could make direct comparisons, but my guide Thắng was truly exceptional. His English was excellent but also he had a lovely personality and sense of humour, which I appreciated. He took me to so many sights and adapted the itinerary so we could escape the crowds and make the most of the weather. He spoke respectfully to everyone he encountered (Limosine river, Sampan rower, street vendors, restaurant workers) so I felt like we were shown extra care and attention by them, which for me is important. He just made everything easy and relaxed and I learnt so much from him about these important sights and the lives of Vietnamese people in general. He took amazing photos and also helped me on the steep and slippery parts of the climb which would have been quite dangerous for me without his help. The local lunch was absolutely delicious and in the best location to enjoy the view of the river. He also gave me many extra tips on the way home for special places to visit and eat in Hanoi on our last day. He was extremely generous with his time and knowledge and I thought his skills as a tour guide were exceptional. I will highly recommend him to my friends and family. Thank you so much.

      Would highly recommend this tour for first timers wanting to go on a day trip to Ninh Binh. The transport bus was good, with comfortable seating, air conditioning, and ports for charging phones. Although there is a detailed itinerary in the description; our tour guide, Hoan, was excellent in that he allowed our group a degree of freedom in the order which to do the activities. Naturally we started with the most physically demanding activity first, the 500 steps, then followed by the relaxing sampan boat trip, followed by lunch. The tour caters to alot of dietary requirements, unfortunately there are no halal options. Lunch was then followed by cycling through rice fields and villages to visit the Bich Dong Temple, a 500 year old temple built into a small mountain. This is an excellent day trip for those wanted a mixture of somewhat physcially challenging to relaxing activites! Things to remember: Sunscreen, shoes for 500 steps, and appropriate clothing to enter the some areas of the temple (cover shoulder and knees) which Hoan the tour guide will remind via WhatsApp the day before!

      We upgraded our trip for $16 usd to have an intimate 4 person trip opposed to a van trip with 12 to 16 people. This lead for bonding with other travelers more closely which was nice and a more personal guide. Vu was our guide and had all kinds of food information on the historical perspective of Vietnam. Also very informative on the temples and pagodas. It rained today but I think that added to the experience. Wear comfortable walking shoes for steps because they do get slippery if wet. Food at local homestead was delicious, but more than 4 people can eat ! Still soo soo soo good. We were accommodated with umbrellas for the boat ride through the caves which was nice. Because of the rain the boat was eerie and super cool! We ended up biking through the rain which honestly was super fun to the pagoda. The history here is super fascinating all told by our guide. Overall trip was amazing . Recommend for adventurous opened minded people who are able to flexible in weather changes and open to new food ideas
