Fantastic 5.0
We had a wonderful experience on this tour. Everything was very well organized, efficient, and ran smoothly from start to finish. Our tour guide, Martin, was professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. He made sure everyone was informed, comfortable, and well taken care of throughout the day. The 22-seat bus was modern, clean, and very comfortable, making the journey enjoyable. The lunch buffet was clean, offered a great variety of dishes, and all of the ingredients tasted fresh. The highlight of the tour for our family was definitely the Tam Coc boat ride. The scenery was absolutely beautiful, and the peaceful ride through the river and limestone mountains was incredibly relaxing and memorable. We also enjoyed visiting Hoa Lu and Hang Mua, which provided a great combination of history, culture, and stunning views. Overall, this was an excellent tour and a fantastic way to experience the beauty of Ninh Binh. We highly recommend Martin and this tour to anyone visiting Hanoi!

Long was our guide for this tour (Hoa Lu > Trang An > Mua Cave) and I am impressed by his enthusiasm to share about the destinations despite the heat & humidity on that day. I also enjoyed the itinerary with a small group of 6 :) I particularly enjoyed the boat ride at Trang An as it is rare to be fully immersed in nature and it's so tranquil. You can definitely expect crowds but it's not too bad and overall quiet. If you are able to climb Mua Cave, please give it a go & stay safe. The views above was worth it 👍🏻 I look forward to visiting Ninh Binh again and perhaps book a few nights stay!

We had a great time during this tour. It was relaxing yet Ninh Binh showed us a great beauty that we will forever remember. I would like to commend the company for arranging such a great tour experience that showcased the 4 beautiful places in this province. The driver was so kind, he gave us so many bottled water every stop. He was so helpful. Ms. Lan, our tour guide, was so jolly and gave us information about each place. We are so thankful we booked this. I would definitely recommend this tour to others!

If you only have one day to get out of Hanoi, you have to do a day trip to Ninh Binh. It feels completely different from the city—massive limestone cliffs, temples tucked into the mountains, and rivers everywhere. Tips for the Tour: ​Bring a hat and sunscreen for the boat ride because there is zero shade on the water, and definitely save enough energy (and water!) for the Mua Cave climb at the end of the day. Your legs will hurt the next day, but the views are 100% worth it.

this one is an experience to see Ninh Binh. the tour was organized, the food during lunch was good and the tour guide was patient and kind. be sure to stay hydrated, have sunscreen, hats/umbrellas ready, even have a spare clothes/tshirt because it is scorching hot as all the activities were outdoors

Kaylee was very organized and detailed in her communication to us for the tour. I thank her for being so prompt and quick in responses. Trang was our tour guide. She was so bubbly and fun, explained the history and meaning behind locations we went to so well, and made our small group tour so meaningful. This was such a highlight of our trip to Vietnam, and I would highly recommend this tour. I enjoyed every part of it. FYI -mua cave is quite steep. I like how Trang warned us to not push ourselves. My parents are seniors now and could only go 3/4 of the way up Mua Cave but they still had a great time! The views are spectacular. Very accommodating company!!

Thanks to our kind and pleasant guide Binh and our safe-driving chauffeur, we had a very enjoyable and satisfying Ninh Binh tour. Guide Binh, with his fluent English and extensive historical knowledge, helped us fully understand the historical background of Vietnam related to the ancient sites. In Trang An, we were able to fully enjoy the beautiful scenery from a boat. The climb up Hang Mua was tough and left us completely drenched in sweat, but the beautiful view from the top was a more than sufficient reward. If you're considering this tour, don't hesitate, just GO for it. Thank you, Binh.

We were very happy to be guided by an experienced tour guide like Son Nguyen, starting from his skill in managing emotions when dealing with complaints about traffic jams during holidays, setting a reasonable time to complete the trip in Nihn Binh. He also took the time to accompany our trip and help us take photos. We can't give any meaningful tips, only best wishes for the success and success of Mr. Son. Hopefully we will have a soulmate to return to Vietnam again, especially Ninh Binh. Perhaps in the future, input so that we can be given time to buy souvenirs on site for more memories. We realized that due to yesterday's traffic, our trip was delayed and returned to Hanoi at almost 10 pm.

What to know before visiting Ninh Binh

Quick snapshot of Ninh Binh and what to expect

Ninh Binh is a compact destination known for its tours, events and cultural experiences, with most bookings on guided day trips and short excursions. Demand peaks in January and dips through June and July, giving the city a clear high season and a quieter summer.

Best months to visit and how prices move

According to Klook booking data, January is the busiest month while June is the quietest. Prices drift up through the spring, reaching their highest in April, then fall sharply into June — June is typically the cheapest month on Klook, roughly half the price of the priciest month. If price and crowd levels matter to you, travel in June for lower prices and smaller crowds; visit in January (or other peak months) for the liveliest atmosphere.

Tips for travellers

Most experiences in Ninh Binh are popular with short-stay visitors and can be arranged close to travel dates, but Klook data shows bookings typically happen about nine days ahead. If you prefer flexibility, you can book a few days out; if you travel in peak months like January, consider securing popular tours a couple of weeks in advance. Use Klook to compare available tour options and lock in the ones that match your schedule.
