A lovely day in Vietnam! - A fantastic trip that included lots of different experiences. From finding out about incense making to a river boat trip through some beautiful scenery and a trip to a temple. Our guide was Nien and he was very friendly and informative. We were driven in a very comfortable minibus. Definitely recommended.

Family friendly day trip from Hanoi - Day out with Nien was super. He gave us cultural and vietnamese life insights throughout the trip that we all found interesting and helpful in terms of understanding how people live outside the cities in Vietnam. Recommended trip to the incense village and river trip. Thanks Nien

Bruce Lee was great! - I had an amazing experience with my tour guide Bruce Lee! He was very friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable throughout the entire tour. We visited the Incense Farm and he took amazing photos. We also spent time in Ninh Binh and enjoyed a beautiful boat ride. Lastly, we visited the Temple and Bruce explained everything very well. Thank you so much Bruce! When I am back in Hanoi, I will book another tour with you. See you soon!

Best Tour Guide - A fantastic experience from pick up to drop off. Our driver was amazing getting us around safely through the traffic. Our tour guide “Bruce Lee” was incredible with his knowledge, friendliness and attention to detail - from cold wipes and water, to extra cushions for on the boat and umbrellas and fans for heat. He is an amazing guide and we thank him for the day.
