Things to do in Ninh Binh

The whole tour experience was wonderful. We had an amazing tour guide, Mr. Donny. He speaks english very well. He's knowleadgable about the spots we went to and shared a lot of interesting facts about Vietnam. The lunch buffet was fulfilling. The overall trip was well-organized. I highly recommend this group tour. It is extremely good value for money.

Miss Lan is a wonderful person, great tour guide and even greater photographer. She answered all pur questions, explained everything on the tour and was always smiling. We covered all major attractions in Ninh Binh in one day and it was very comfortable. Definitely recommend the tour and Lan!

We received the itinerary confirmation from the local travel agency the day after booking. Although we cancelled our original order including Mua Cave due to our evening schedule and re-booked through Klook for just Hoa Lu and Trang An to return to the city earlier, the local agency was very friendly and prompt in their responses. However, the morning pick-up was a bit chaotic. There was a last-minute change of tour guide and meeting point, and since someone earlier likely arrived late, the vehicle was delayed by 30 minutes. We were the second-to-last group to board, so we ended up in the very back row, which was quite uncomfortable and prone to bumping our heads! Surprisingly, some passengers in the same van actually had the Mua Cave tour included. The guide initially said that those not entering would be taken somewhere else to wait, and we could just decide later whether to pay the extra fee for Mua Cave. We were a bit taken aback by this. After departing, we stopped at a silk rest stop. Upon arriving at Hoa Lu, the guide enthusiastically took photos for us, and his photography skills were great. The itinerary also included a bike ride, but we skipped it and bought some ice cream at the restaurant to wait. Lunch was a buffet on the second floor of a restaurant; they seated us in a private room with strong air conditioning, and many vegetarian options were clearly labeled and quite delicious. Next was the boat ride at Trang An, with four people per boat. The scenery was truly amazing. The only regret was that our boat ticket didn't include stops for sightseeing along the way, which was a bit of a pity, but the scenery was still charming! After disembarking, we had time to browse a small shop and grab some drinks. Suddenly, our guide, Tu Tran, said there was an open seat on another van and offered to switch us to return earlier, personally handing us over to another female guide with glasses named Lanh. She was very enthusiastic and friendly, spoke English without an accent, and the return vehicle was upgraded to a very comfortable Dcar. Furthermore, when we asked about the drop-off location—since we had planned to visit AEON Mall Long Bien that evening and hoped the free drop-off point could be a bit closer to make it easier to call a ride—she was also very enthusiastic in helping us 👍, which made our final night's itinerary in Vietnam go smoothly!

We had a fantastic experience on the Ninh Binh tour! Everything was well organised, from transportation to the itinerary. A special mention to our tour guide, Johnny Handsome, who made the entire experience even more enjoyable. He was friendly, knowledgeable, funny and very helpful throughout the day. His enthusiasm and great sense of humour made the tour memorable. Thank you, Johnny, for making our day so special. Keep up the great work! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Our day exploring Mua Cave, Trang An and Ninh Binh was absolutely unforgettable. From start to finish, the experience was smooth, beautifully paced, and filled with breathtaking scenery. A huge part of what made the day exceptional was our guide Jacy from cozy Vietnam — exceptionally polite, professional, and attentive throughout the entire journey. He made sure we enjoyed every activity without ever feeling rushed, and impressively navigated the schedule so we avoided all peak‑hour traffic and crowds. Climbing Mua Cave’s steps, drifting through Trang An’s serene waterways, and taking in Ninh Binh’s dramatic landscapes felt effortless and immersive. Every moment was well‑timed, comfortable, and thoughtfully planned. A truly five‑star experience that I would recommend to anyone visiting Vietnam. If you want, I can also craft a more playful, romantic, or professional version depending on where you plan to post it.

It was all worth it! Me and my friend enjoyed the trip adding to our best experience in Vietnam. Mr. Quan was so approachable and I was impressed with his knowledge about culture and history of Vietnam. The trip we purchased was very fit for us as we don't like having many people in a group. The people we were with was so friendly! Hope to come back and try the other tours!

Every arrangement made was accordingly. The private transfer and transport were good and comfortable. All the drivers that served us were very punctual. The only issue was communication with the driver due to their English proficiency, but it can be resolved with Google Translate. The service from Mie (SST travel )is superb. She responded fast to all my enquires and problems. I will definitely looking for her for my next trip to HCMC.

excellent trip; itinerary, food, and accessibility (everything was quite close once we got to each destination). excellent guide through our 3 main destinations. highly recommended

The show was much more exciting and wonderful than expected! In addition to the wire-flying stunts, the fire dance performance was particularly spectacular, and the interaction with the audience was a lot of fun. Booking tickets through Klook is very convenient and much cheaper than buying them at the venue. The system also automatically assigns seats, and the seats chosen were quite good. Upon arrival, you just need to exchange your voucher for entry, which is super convenient!
