All Northern Vietnam Tours & Excursions in 2026

Great experience. We were met from the gate and escorted through the VIP lane at immigration. The main queue looked huge and I’ve no doubt this saved us a lot of time. They waited with us and helped with luggage before taking us through to our transfer driver. Would definitely use them again.

Because I had free time, I joined the group on September 5th. Our guide is Oliver. I didn't have high hopes to begin with. But this trip brought me many surprises; the scenery was very beautiful, and the host was also good at telling jokes to liven up the atmosphere. Come again when you have time.

The day trip included everything that was promised in the description. We had a very good guide - Loi - who spoke very good English and enjoyed explaining background information. Loi also took great care of the organization of the trip and the well-being of his group; the schedule worked out perfectly. Successful day trip, on which we gained many impressions and were able to take many beautiful photos.

We loved our trip to Ninh Binh. Starting early is highly recommended as we got ahead of the main tourist crowds. The 500 step climb at the mountain is challenging in the heat but worth it for the views. The tour was well planned and we loved our guide who was Tuna. He was great with everyone and really helped us all every step of the way. A small group tour is really worthwhile I think for somewhere like Ninh Binh. The jeeps are very cool as well and we loved the whole day. I highly recommend this tour.

Wonderful experience, from the transfer to the return, everything perfect! The cruise is wonderful, the rooms spacious, clean and cared for in the smallest details (such as the jacuzzi in the bathroom). Waking up at dawn in the bay was exciting. Finally the staff: professional, kind and always available! Thanks to Lee and John for the warm welcome!

Hien was very knowledgeable and patient with us and really gave us a good insight of Hanoi and the Hanlong bay, The boat ride itself was calm as was the sampan ride we opted for in lieu of kayaking and well worth it as we saw the inside of lovely caves and explored the limestone shapes. Amazing!

Our trip was great! Our guide Johnny was very knowledgable and attentive for the 7 hour excursion. Easy to find him at the cruise ship port, and quick loading on to the boat. We had 18 passengers, and could have had room for at least 30, so lots of space, which was nice. Clean, available bathrooms. Soda, beer, water available for sale ($1-2 USD), and you do get 1 free with lunch. The itinerary was different than what was on Viator, but it all ended up being great. Went to an oyster & pearl farm, Sung Set Cave, then had lunch (so much food! A set menu, and it just kept coming. After lunch, we visited Luon Cave - we had options to take a bamboo boat (included), kayak (included) or speedboat (~$17 USD), and we had enough time to do 2 of the 3! Finally, we also stopped at Titov Isle - has a viewpoint with about 450 steps, which I didn't do, but we had enough time here to allow that. We stayed at the beach/shops area, which was pretty small. Swimming was allowed, but again, it was very small, so we didn't go in. Johnny was a great guide and the boat crew were wonderful! Great way to see the cool bay area.

Wow, what a wonderful day we had exploring the vibrant, bustling city of Hanoi & seeing all the main landmarks with our guide, Jackies - our trip into the city from Halong Port was excellent, very comfortable & great driver. Well worth it & communication from the travel company was top notch, a great day out
