Reviews summary1) tour guide: Luca - he was very kind and accommodating. he provided timely updates and gave just enough info for the tour. 2) itinerary: good - did not feel rushed, and they won't push you to do the side activities if you don't want to. at lunch time, you can do biking for free. then at last stop, you can climb up the stairs [1k steps total up/down] or you can walk and chill around. 3) bus driver: on time and careful driving 4) extras/others: during lunch buffet, there's a cafe across it called "PERSIMMOM Coffee" - TRY IT! traffic going back can be bad so expect a little delay. 1st drop off for us was at Night Market and u can go down here if u want to. during summer, it can be extremely hot. they also provided free bottled waters. no need to pay for anything, tickets and buffet are all included in the price. they will also contact you a day before your scheduled tour, so make sure your viber/whatsapp is working.
Everything was good. The itinerary, the guide Mr. Ben and even the driver, Mr. Lucky. The buffet lunch is delicious and the restaurant is spacious. Bus condition is also good, cool air-condition. Overall, it was a good tour. We enjoyed a lot and will definitely go back. Cam on.
Amazing experience, beautiful scenery. Tour guide Luca is very helpful and kind, this is the first time we went with tour and have a really great and fullfilling experience, definitely will do this again !!
Since it was a holiday when we visited Ninh Binh, we arrived at the place around 1PM because of the traffic jam, had a travel time of 6hours instead of 2hrs. although its understandable, I suggest next time during holidays you guys must adjust the pickup and travel time earlier than schedule. Lunch has a variety of foods to choose from, different cuisines, a buffet-style. Itinerary is compressed since we had limited time already, though we still managed to go to best scenic views of the place. we got at our last itinerary at night 7pm on hoa lu, it was too dark already, must be one of the highlights of the tour. though I appreciate the tour guide and had still explained the history of Vietnam in full details. The bus we ride on is old and had small cockroaches. The ride is bumpy and shaky. still recommends Ninh Binh. very beautiful place.
Worth It Customer Service- They had communicate properly a day before on the meet up location and time Itinerary- itinerary was good, we visited all the location as listed, I do hope we had a bit more time at Hang Mua as the climb was a lot and there’s other scenic place to take pictures at below, they also send you back to your preferred location inside old quarter Guide- Guide spoke good english and he had tried to make sure everything is done in timely manner, driver also drive safely Lunch- Lunch could be better, its a buffet with a lot of choice Overall, if you only have 1 day to spend at ninh binh, i do suggest to take this tour
Amazing place with scenic views. The trip is organised well but the guide can improve his English communication. The 2 hour long boat ride was spectacular and the trek to Mua cave has amazing views. Cycling can be done in Tam Coc.
The Ninh Binh trip was Amazing. Special thanks to Manh, our tour guide who was very helpful, knowledgeable and professional. He even helped us return our wallet which we left in the bus by mistake. We would recommend our friends and family to book this one day tour. Thanks to the team for helping us have a memorable time in Vietnam.
Sir Lucky and Raymond has been very patient with us. The ride is comfortable and we love the recliners! 😍 Lunch is okay and the itinerary was enjoyable especially the boat ride. We understand we have tight schedule so there must be time limits on each place.
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 .
the trip was great. The tour guide was very informative. The driver’s pace was great too. Vehicle was clean. Lunch was just okay. Itinerary was great. I maximized my time in Nin Binh without compromising my comfort. Thank you. I had a great time.
