3D2N Ba Be - Ban Gioc Tour from Hanoi

The tour guide unfortunately only spoke Vietnamese. However, he was incredibly nice and kind, and he made a real effort to ensure that everyone understood by utilizing Google Translate. The tour itself was very enjoyable and interesting, and we got to see everything. The food was good, though I would have really liked the menu to include pho and bun bo hue.

This was a nice tour. Guide was friendly and tried his best to communicate as he only spoke Vietnamese. Lucky for me one of the other 7 guest spoke English and could translate to me. Trip involves a lot (8-10 hours a day) of bus travel

recommend to check the season before coming to Ban Gioc waterfall. i went there in early of may but the waterfall didn't have much water, it's not beautiful as what it's supposed to be. very sad about that. above all, tour guide was enthuisiastic, driver was very experienced and local meals were really nice, however it is a one-time-go for me

Great excursion! The program is great—I was especially impressed by the waterfall! There was good accommodation, a cheerful and sociable group, the guide did not speak English, but sent all the instructions through a translator on WhatsApp, there were no problems. And in general, it turned out to be such a friendly weekend trip with a gastronomic focus—lunches and dinners were great, we completely immersed ourselves in the local flavor. I recommend this tour and this company, everything went great! We parted as friends🤗

Chen was an amazing guide. Even though the tour is mainly for locals, he will still try explain to non-vietnamese joiners in English. We were blessed with good weather and all the tour destinations were beautiful. Also for the included meals, my impression is that we will just have simple meals but no, every meal is a feast, and you will pretty much have a taste of a lot of Vietnamese cuisine. The accomodations are also good. Overall, the tour is highly recommended. Even the Vietnamese locals who joined the tour are also friendly, which made the tour much more enjoyable for me who is a solo traveller.

if you want to experience Vietnamese culture people food and landscape this is for you. food was fit for kings and Queens. (never ate so well before). we are english speaking only tourists managed to get by. Chien was an amazing guide helped take care of my mum he went above and beyond. we couldn't be more greatful. pre warning bus trip is long the roads not suitable for people whom are prone to travel sickness. as we were English tourists only we did miss out on alot of information about areas along our drive but that's expected being on Vietnamese tour only. extremely rewarding trip.

I traveled with local Vietnamese people, and they all took good care of me and were friendly, so I made good memories. Even though the guide was not good at English, he did his best to be considerate and we were provided with vegetarian food separately. It was great to be able to travel with local Vietnamese people to Ba Be Lake and Ban Jig Waterfall, which are not well known to Koreans and European tourists. The travel time is quite long, but it is satisfactory if you like nature. I am a Korean woman traveling alone, but everyone took good care of me like family.

This tour is mainly catered towards locals, so the guide will explain more in Vietnamese, followed by basic English. The guide is super attentive. The sceneries are stunning but be prepared for long bus rides. Most attractions are easily a 2-3hr ride from the main town. The food is delicious and the rooms for both nights though basic, are clean. There is hot shower available at the homestay and it was a unique experience for city kids to be staying in the hills. Another point to note is that Vietnamese loved to sing! They expressed their thanks, appreciations all through songs! So there will be karaoke sessions during the bus rides, it’s my first experience too. Recommended for the experience and scenic views, though can be a little tiring due to long bus rides.

We booked the tour to Ban gioc even though it was available in the Vietnamese language only. Ban gioc is a place that one should not miss I would say. The tour is very well planned with good food & stay options. Also A special mention to our Tour guide Hieu who was amazing throughout the trip. Even though he did not speak much English he made sure everything was smooth for us. We were the only non- Vietnamese people in the group but Hieu made sure to send all instructions on chat by using Google translate & made sure we were taken care of all the time Thank you Hieu, you're a superstar. Thank you PYS travel for a great trip. Definitely recommended!

Nice trip, to see the beautiful waterfall shared between China and Vietnam. The trip is explained in Vietnamese, if you do not understand, you can ask the guide.
