Stellar day out of Hanoi!!
Louis was a fantastic guide!! Great English, great personality and flexible with us as we wanted to see and do it all. What a day. You will not be disappointed as you will see a fabulous temple, drive scooters, take a boat tour, complete an amazing hike up to a unreal view. The lunch is fantastic and the van they pick you up in is luxury!! This is the best tour we did in Vietnam. Louis was the best guide you could imagine for this activity!!

Amazing day out that felt like a proper adventure!
This is an epic day and one to remember! Trekking up hilltops, walking through gorgeous rice paddies, cycling to temples and boat trip through 3 caves!
The team and staff were super helpful and friendly and lunch was amazing over looking the river whilst you watched passing boats go by.
If you’re in the Hanoi area, this trip is an essential one! Highly recommend

Our guide Jason was...
Our guide Jason was lovely, fantastic English level, funny, good energy and interesting history about the places we visited.
My recommendation would be to wear proper stable training shoes as there is quite a bit of walking up and down steps which can be uneven in places.
Set meal on the boat was ok, large servings, more than enough certainly.
All around good value for money, a nice place to visit, and a great way to do so 👍

Not only was this tour so...
Not only was this tour so much fun, the food was absolutely delicious. It’s also such a great way to see the city and all the main sites. Our guide, Hoa, was very knowledgeable and friendly and spoke great English. Our kids ages 12 and 14 were with us, and they even provided helmets for them. Highly recommend this tour.

This tour is a must do!
I truly appreciated how personalized this tour was. Nick took excellent care of the group, helping us to not only navigate the streets safely, but also in accomodating allergies in the group. It’s not always easy for me to participate in these types of experiences with a gluten allergy, so it was a real treat to be able to eat like a local. The food was plentiful and delicious and the places authentic and full of character. It was a real fun night and the perfect way to start my trip. Thank you so much!❤️

Excellent! Especially Ricky
I had an absolutely wonderful experience with our tour guide, Ricky. From the very beginning, he was warm, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. His passion for sharing the history and culture of the area truly brought every location to life.
Ricky was also very attentive and thoughtful—always making sure everyone in the group was comfortable, engaged, and enjoying the experience. He handled every detail smoothly, from timing to logistics, which made the entire tour feel relaxed and well-organized.
What really stood out was his ability to connect with people. He answered every question with enthusiasm and made the tour both informative and fun. Thanks to Ricky, this wasn’t just a tour—it was a memorable experience we’ll always appreciate.
Highly recommended to anyone looking for an exceptional guide!

Beautiful scenery
Amazing views, very well curated route, attentive tour guide. We enjoyed the boat trip along the river with mountains and rice fields on both sides while passing through 3 caves. We loved cycling among the quiet country roads next to the rice fields and mountains, with nice cafes along the way. The lunch was delicious. Overall experience was great.

Great tour to see main attractions
This tour is perfect for first timers to Hanoi and helps you get aquainted with the city. Guide and driver were exceptional. Lan, our guide, was very good at telling us about each place and was super friendly. She went out of her way to assist us throughout the tour.

A special thank you to Luca, our tour guide, who was super nice, friendly, and incredibly helpful throughout the day. He explained everything clearly, answered all our questions, and made sure everyone felt comfortable. His positive energy and knowledge really made the tour special.
Highly recommend this tour if you’re visiting Ninh Binh!

This was an amazing day...
This was an amazing day with the perfect amount of time out for a day trip if staying in Ha long. It was a wonderful mix of being on the cruise and relaxing with wonderful pictures that can be taken, hiking, kayaking, speed boat and bamboo boat. And the cave is incredible to walk through. You wont be disappointed!!!!
