Halong bay from the water
This tour, with David, was quite enjoyable, and his energy was contagious. From the fishing villages to the caves all was unique and interesting. The visit to the family owned oystery was nice, and the pearl shop was very good. The meal on the boat was enormous and tasty.
Be ready to walk a lot of stairs in the cave.

A Perfect Private Ninh Binh Experience – 100 Stars for Su!
I had an absolutely amazing experience on my private Ninh Binh tour, and I cannot recommend it enough! Everything was perfectly organized, and having a private tour made it even more special and flexible. But what truly made this experience unforgettable was our guide, Su.
Su is simply exceptional. She is incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what she does. Throughout the day, she shared fascinating insights about the history, culture, and local life in Ninh Binh, which made every place we visited so much more meaningful.
What I appreciated the most was how attentive and thoughtful she was. Since it was a private tour, she adapted everything to my pace and preferences, never rushing and always making sure I was fully enjoying each moment. As someone who loves photography, I especially appreciated how she helped me find the best spots and even assisted with taking photos—she really understood what makes a place special.
The entire day felt smooth, relaxed, and perfectly tailored thanks to Su’s excellent organization. I felt completely taken care of from start to finish.
If there were 100 stars, I would give Su 100 without hesitation—but since the maximum is 5, she deserves every single one of them!
Thank you, Su, for making this such a unique and memorable experience. I will never forget this tour!

A thoroughly enjoyable...
A thoroughly enjoyable morning. Picked up at my hotel and taken on the back of a scooter to the office where I met the group and we got our bikes. We then cycled off out of the city and into the countryside stopping at various points. Guides were friendly and helpful and the staff blocked all the major junctions so we always felt very safe. Nice included pho ga lunch at the end! All in all would definitely recommend this trip!

Awesome tour!
There is a 500 step climb which might be difficult for some. It is more difficult coming down! The view is worth the climb! Buffet was excellent! Our guide, Son, was awesome, very informative and an awesome sense of humour! Best guide we've had in our travels!

Awesome tour, wonderful guide -thanks Jay
We had a beautiful day out. Our tour guide Jay had incredible English and knowledge which made the tour so enjoyable. We also had a great group of people Aussies, English, Japanese and American. Great conversation, great company, great experience. Oh and lunch was delicious!
No hard sells on this tour which was a bonus. If you choose this tour I'd definitely ask if you can have Jay as your tour guide

"A Flawless Experience with team Tom!
Huge thanks to Team Tom for an unforgettable day! Our guide, Tom, was exceptional from start to finish—professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly attentive. Everything ran like clockwork, allowing us to just relax and enjoy the sights. If you’re looking for a seamless and high-quality tour, I can’t recommend this one highly enough!

Ninh Binh day trip
The day had a lot of variety. The drive was only 2 hours to Ninh Binh. The biking was very easy and good for people of all abilities. The boat ride through the caves was stunning and despite the downpour the climb up the 500 steps was still doable and worth the view. Our guide Ryan was great!

Weather was ok, but the tour was great. Great food and great organization.
Weather wasn’t great. But the tour itself was.
Nature in Han La bay is beautiful. You might even see some monkeys. I did the trip from and to Hanoi, which can be very tiring. But it was the only 1 day tour I found from Hanoi. If you can go to Cat Ba island first (or stay there after), makes it easier.
Tour was incredibly well organized, people come from Hanoi, from Cat Ba and leave in Cat Ba or Hanoi (or airport) and it’s all organized perfectly. The guide speaks very good English and is funny. Special note for the food. They give you a great meal with lots of different seafood! All fresh and good.

The organization was...
The organization was superb. The driver picked us up from our hotel and took us to the train station. The train left from a different station than usual and the travel agent texted and called to make sure the driver took us to the right place. When we arrived, a driver had all the names on a placard and took us to a cafe to have breakfast and meet our guide. Every step of the way someone with a name list made sure we got to the right spot. We were lucky that our train was late (the station change) and we got a private tour with May, the rest of the group left before us. She is a local and told us about the tribes daily lives and explain what we saw on the trek. She also helped me through the slippery bamboo forest trail. The guest house was quaint and the food through the trip was fine, simple but fresh and tasty. The only caveat, bring ear plugs for the train, it's very noisy. The sleeper bus on the way back was quite an experience but at least I slept, much quieter than the train.

Excellent day cruise at Halong Bay
Ideal trip for someone low on time but yet wanting to catch the best of halong bay. Every moment is fun filled and full of picturesque views. For the kayaking/ Bamboo boat part, I would recommend kayaking if no kids else the bamboo boat is after. Gets crowded. I would recommend carrying about 500000 VND in cash. A cpl 100k more if you want to tip well. Our guide Binh did an excellent job of managing the tour and explaining what was about to come. His fluency in English helped immensely.

HaLong Bay in our own ship
Excellent communication from the travel agent .
I can’t tell you how impressed we were - I booked a private trip for 4 people - we had our own boat and guide just for us and the lunch on board was restaurant quality and so much of it.
HaLong Bay is so beautiful and unexpected .
I would highly recommend this trip .
Unbelievable value for money and the scenery is just breathtaking

We had an outstanding...
We had an outstanding experience touring Hanoi with our guide, Walter. From the start, Walter was welcoming, friendly, and very easy to get along with. His depth of knowledge about the city's history and culture was impressive, and he was always flexible with our pace and requests.
Beyond the tour itself, Walter went above and beyond by providing us with some fantastic, off-the-beaten-path recommendations for local food spots and activities. His insights genuinely enhanced our entire trip. Highly recommended!"
