Trang An Landscape Complex (Trang An Grottoes) Tours and Tickets - page 21

It's a long day but to me that's a good thing. It was filled with a variety of activites, and Dà, our guide, was very helpful throughout each activity, prepping us in advance for what to expect and then explaining the relevant information. The order in which you do things on this 1-day trip might change depending on things like weather. We did the hike up to the mountaintop first, followed by a stop at Mua cave. The hike was fairly strenuous but very enjoyable. I'm old but am in decent fitness shape, but some people did have to rest frequently. A warning might be deserved that everyone should be careful on the very steep stairs - we saw one person had fallen and hit his head, with what seemed to be serious injury. The caves after that were fantastic, especially with seeing all the bats in the cave ceiling. Lunch was very good, though some people seemed surprised that it was a fixed course meal. However you were still free to order other things in addition to the covered meal. After lunch we had the bike ride through the village, which was a wonderful break with nice scenery and the fresh air. Finally the boat ride and paddle was our last activity, which was spectacular. The scenery was incredible - truly it seemed like something from a movie set. We weren't required to paddle, but on the return half of the loop we decided to and had a fun time doing that. But again, the scenery outside and the caves were spectacular. After that we had a 2-hr drive back to Hanoi, tired but very satisfied.

Had so much fun with my mom on this excursion! Tour guide, I believe her name is spelled Duyên, was great.

Very good safe driver. Nice limousin! Excellent tour guide. Beautiful surroundings and lovely pagoda visit.

The standard four Ninh Binh tour activities. Small (8-10 people) and definitely luxury bus. Small group, driver and guide (very friendly, positive and enthusiastic Alex) stayed together for the whole day. Lots of interesting history and culture information provided by Alex. Ended the day very tired and happy.

It was a long, but wonderful day. Most of the sites were very crowded but beautiful. Alex was a great tour guide and spoke English very well.

Guides were great, friendly and so helpful. Lunch was amazing . Kept going despite the pouring rain. Thanks

Continuous open communication throughout. Our guide, Duc/James was very knowledgeable and was able to curate an experience just for us and what we wanted/needed! Highly recommend!!

Very well organized tour. A lot of beauty and things to explore. As a solo traveler there were certain things that were to taxing for me to do, however there was a tour guide trainee who stayed with me all day. He was a gem!!!
