Ninh Binh Tours

The Ninh Binh tour was absolutely amazing and highly recommended if you are visiting Hanoi. Our tour guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and extremely helpful throughout the trip. The transfers were smooth and comfortable, and the itinerary was well planned and executed with minimal delays. The only area that could be improved was the lunch arrangement. While the food itself was good, the seating wasn’t well organized and the restaurant staff seemed a bit confused, which caused slight inconvenience. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and Ninh Binh is truly a must-visit destination when you’re in Hanoi.

everything was super cool . our guide Arthur ( I can’t remember his Vietnamese name , sorry) was amazing . He speaks good English , knowledgable about history , architecture and places . full day packed of activities , from historic ruins to cycling in village roads surrounded by mountains and lakes and ponds full of lotus flowers . it was so refreshing from our every day hustling lifestyle of big city . the bamboo boat ( although nothing is made out of bamboo) ride was good , although it’s quite touristy after it is open . so better to reach and catch the first group of boats for it . there can be vendors selling many hand crafted artifacts , designs , paintings etc . if you wish , you can bargain and purchase it but they are not pushy at all . people are very admirable . one thing, you should respect their lifestyle and culture . in last word, book this tour , you wil not be desatisfied .

We had a wonderful tour with our guide , Duc. He shared great info about the sites and Vietnamese culture. The company reached out the day before the tour to confirm pick up time and location. Duc was at the pick up location to greet us. The itinerary is as outlined in the description. The lunch buffet included many traditional Vietnamese dishes which we fully enjoyed. We did notice that some of the individuals on the tour were vegetarians and indicated that there were limited options for them. Overall a great tour and highly recommended for those looking for a day trip from the hustle and hustle or Hanoi.

I loved everything about this tour! The guide communicated when they were close to picking me up, since there was some traffic. Robin gave good information as we began the 2 hour drive to Ninh Binh, but let us rest after since it was still early. The bike ride to the temple was great and not difficult at all. Lunch had plenty of options. Trang An and the Mua Caves were gorgeous and it was so peaceful and relaxing despite there being lots of other boats. It was also nice that if you didn’t want to hike the 500 steps, you could visit the old town instead. 10/10 would recommend

The tour guide seemed too young and didn't really control the group well. Also, while they were called a tour guide, they didn't actually introduce the history of each location. This was a very different experience compared to other tours I've taken in Vietnam. The worst part was that after dropping everyone off at each location, they didn't mention a meeting time. When I asked the tour guide what time we'd meet, they just replied that they'd be waiting at that spot, and the voice was so quiet that not all the tour group members could hear. So, the entire day was spent waiting for other tour members to return to the group, plus it was a holiday, so there were tons of other tour groups at each location! Because our group arrived late to the restaurant for lunch, we only had half an hour for lunch, which felt very rushed and uncomfortable. The bike ride after lunch is really unnecessary. The bikes were super bad, and the roads were super bad too. It's skippable. The only complete experience during the whole trip was the boat ride. The Mua Cave at the end was just a big question mark. We paid money to enter, but we could only stay for 40 minutes. There was no time to climb up, even though the park was really beautiful. It was such a pity we couldn't go up because we'd be late. Again, regarding the final meeting time to return to Hanoi, we waited in the car for 40 minutes because other tour members were late. The whole experience really felt like we spent 2/3 of the time waiting for people! If you're going to spend a whole day on this, I recommend booking a small group or a private tour. You really get what you pay for!

brilliant tour! it more than exceeded our expectations! A must do while in Hanoi, early start but well worth it! our guide was fab and it all felt quite relaxed despite the schedule! it was my favourite day so far! the climb was quite the workout for those with short legs but worth it! the boat ride was the stand out but every bit was great! lunch was typical buffet, bit bland but enough choice to fill up for energy! our guide Day was fab, thank you!

Comfortable transport, on time collection. Efficient with itinerary, changed due to busy tourism spots however saw everything. Lunch was delicious with a variety of options given. Informative tour guide Jobs who was very caring and happy to answer any questions

Our day trip with Minh was fantastic! He was friendly, organized, and shared so much interesting information about each place. The schedule was well-paced, and he made sure everyone was comfortable throughout. Thanks to Minh, we had a smooth, fun, and memorable experience exploring Bai Dinh, Trang An, and Mua Caves. Highly recommend him!

Great day, we really enjoyed ourselves. Good option for seeing a bit of variety in a short time (temple, then boat ride, then mountain hike). Would book again. I recommend selecting the option to include admission tickets with the tour price, otherwise you face the hastle of having to give cash in person to the tour guide to buy them for you~ slows everyone down a bit. Thanks for the great day!!
