Highly recommend Hung for Ninh Binh & Incense Village Daily Tour - We had a wonderful day tour to Ninh Binh with our guide Hung. He was extremely friendly and welcoming, making the whole experience very enjoyable. Hung not only gave us detailed explanations about the sights we visited, but also shared many interesting insights about Vietnamese history and local customs. Thanks to his knowledge and kindness, we were able to better understand and appreciate the culture of Vietnam. We highly recommend Hung to anyone looking for a memorable and enriching experience!

A must do when staying in Hanoi - This is kind of a unique experience to see the production of a incense Stock and the beauty of the colors. And the boat ride along Tam Coc river with the rice fields and lime stones formations is soetacular. I highly recommend it.
