Well organised and energetic!

Sophia_B, Feb 2024
Our tour guide Mr Lợi was amazing! Energetic, funny and kind. We had quite bad weather for our trip but he made sure it wasn’t miserable. The view point is amazing, a shame we couldn’t see further and the boats were really fun. Our lady driving the boat was a bit demanding with the tip which was a little intimidating but it definitely looked like hard work so maybe fair? It was well organised and I liked the emphasis on if you don’t come back to the bus on time you’ll need to get a taxi :) luckily we didn’t loose anyone

You cannot miss out on seeing Ninh Binh when you're in Hanoi. It is so stunning. In this trip you go on a boat ride through a river and the scenery is just so breathtaking. Our guide, Loi, was great with just the right amount of talking! Climbing up to Mua Cave is brilliant but also could be a bit tough for those with knee or cardiovascular problems as there are LOTS of stairs and rocks. Also be prepared to queue to climb up to the dragon...but do so anyway!
