Really enjoyed this tour, our guide (Sonny) was very knowledgeable and funny. Everything was well organised and it was a highlight of my trip.

We had Sunny as our tour guide and I cannot recommend him enough! He is hilarious, informative and so kind. We were picked up from our hotel, taken on a full day out with no big crowds and so much history and beautiful scenery was involved. If you want an informative, fun, adventurous day in Ninh Binh, book it! Thanks Sunny and the team! You were amazing :)

Sonny was the best guide from beginning to end. Everything was well planned. He’s well informed and taught us a lot about Vietnam. The food was excellent! More than enough to choose from. Thank you for the great experience Sonny and making us laugh all day! This is a must for anybody visiting Vietnam/Hanoi 🙌

Tour operator was perfect and helpful. The cycling activity is rather poor. It is only to take pictures. Boat trip was amazing

It was a pleasant day with our guide Sunny. In addition to giving us very informative information about Vietnam and the places we visited, he also made us laugh a lot with his jokes. ☺️

This is a great experience, everything that we did was well worth it. Sonny our tour guide was friendly, funny and very informative. He explained everything so we could all understand. Loved the bike ride, very peaceful cycling around the country side. Enjoyed the boat ride to Mua caves but did get a saw bottom as it’s quite long. The big walk was well worth the effort of climbing all those stairs, we managed it at 60 + so you can too. Just take your time and the view won’t disappoint Great lunch supplied.

Great day in Ninh Binh. Excellent communication from prior to pickup and throughout the day. Sunny, our guide, was kind, pleasant and informative as we visited all the attractions. Nice to add the bike ride and the hike in as well. Highly recommend the tour … even more so if Sunny is leading it.

I don't usually write reviews, but this trip definitely deserves one! Sunny was the best tour guide ive ever had - I think he might be Vietnam's Uncle Roger. He shared so much wit and knowledge throughout the tour. 🤣 If you're still thinking about booking this, don't hesitate - just do it! For only $30, you'll get to visit three iconic places in Northern Vietnam. It's the best deal I've seen, and you'll have an amazing guide and driver too! 💕
