Ninh Binh Day Tour: Bai Dinh Pagoda & Van Long Nature Reserve

I have a good guide called Ben. He has really made the tour a relaxing one. The pagoda was huge and it took us half a day to go around including an electric car ride. The Van Long boat ride was very relaxing, but we did not see any langur. Overall, this trip was good and it was less crowded compared to Ha Long Bay trip.

Our tour guide Victor is friendly and very informative. Value for money tour with many experiences in 1 day! Lunch is also included. A good variety of food provided. Favourite part is the boat ride in Van Long. Beautiful views.

We thoroughly enjoyed the trip with our guide, Luca. He was attentive and entertaining, as well as arranged everything well during the trip. The tour was great, especially the boat trip in Van Long

The pagoda has a very long history, some 400-years. When we visited the site, the wind is strong and not many visitors. We completed the tour in about 1.5 hours, including making print inside the main pagoda. The Van Long reserve is not quite the same as I was introduced. Our boat visited only one cave, and turned back about 150 meters inside the cave. But we managed to get some video which is nice.

This premier day trip to Tam Coc was not crowded with only 7 people in my group. Not too rushed. The mini bus to pick us up was comfortable. We chose the animal cart ride while my other tour mates did the biking. The owner of a household cooked lunch for us & they were warm & friendly. The boat ride at Tam Coc was enjoyable & the scenery was very beautiful. Our guide nicknamed as Bruce Lee was a responsible guide who took care of my elderly mom well. Overall, this day trip was enjoyable.

Well took care by tour guide Thao. Excellent service. Van Long is so beautiful & peaceful. Love this place

The scenery is beautiful, the tour guide explains it in detail, and the time spent on transportation is not too long. Unfortunately, it is relatively hot to visit in June!

we visit this place on oct (sunny day), a nice place to visit.

The place was beautiful and our tour guide, Min, was very attentive. We had a senior (80 year old) with our group and they were patient enough to accommodate her needs. On top of that, the price for this premier tour costs as much as the regular tour offered around the Old Quarter (25USD).

The ride to Ninh Binh was very comfortable. Our guide, Long, is very knowledgeable and full of energy. The itinerary was spaced out well and we did not feel rush. The scenery can feel repetitive after awhile.
