Highly recommended day trip from Hanoi - Fantastic day trip with Nien our tour guide. Itinerary was at the right pace, varied and smooth. Also enjoyed very much his narrative and humour. Scenery was spectacular albeit some of the sites were a bit crowded with tourists. The visit to the farmhouse was also a highlight as well as the ride on the motorbikes!
Highly enjoyable and highly recommended.

A good outing from the busy Hanoi - Nien was funny and looked after our small group of 8 very well. We started with the hardest part by walking up to the outlook of nihn bihn. Then the rest was easy. The view was spectacular. The shuttle was comfortable and the lunch was good. I enjoyed the day very much.

Fabulous - We ended up in today’s tour to Nihn Binh by chance but it’s been the best experience in Vietnam so far! Nien was a super tour guide, providing great fact, anecdotes, and context to the trip. The bike ride was very gentle and definitely a highlight.

Ninh Binh day trip - I had QA as my tour guide and had a fantastic day out in Ninh Binh. As there were only 9 of us the day felt very personalised and QA took the time to explain the history of the Ninh Binh province. The tour takes you to beautiful UNESCO heritage sites and is 100% worth signing up for. Thank you to QA for making the day extra special and memorable!!
