First take these 5 star reviews with a grain of salt. They really pressure you to give a 5 star review in the car on the way back and it’s awkward to refuse. Tour was fine but nothing special.

Amazing trip, great experience and Vu was an excellent and really knowledgable guide. The food was amazing and there were plenty of opportunities for photos/bathroom breaks with clean facilities
Great day! Tour was fantastic. Thanks Bob Vu for an unforgettable day: temple, pagodas, biking, boat & river, delicious food, nice to knows. Beautiful Vietnam 🇻🇳
This my very first time in Vietnam and I was recomended by my Hotel Concierge to join this Tour and my experience has been above & beyond! The Tour went smooth and the service rendered by Maya my lovely and friendly Tourguide was outstanding! Maya is not only friendly but she is also very knowledgeable of the history of the places of interest. I learn alot about Vietnam and my Love for Vietnam has got stronger! Vietnam is such a beautiful country and I sincerely do look forward to return for a second visit! Thank you once again Ms Maya for your time and service throughout our Tour. Maya, you serve with so much love & passion and I wish you nothing but very best in your career! Well done Maya! Sincerely Jaz Khai Malaysia
Great tour, very enthusiastic and informative guide, and wonderful day. We saw a lot in a short amount of time and were very happy with everything. Highly recommend.
Ninh Binh is a beautiful province. Tan, our guide did an outstanding job of telling us about the area and accommodating all of us. It looked like it was going to rain during the boat ride and Tan provided umbrellas. Lunch was extensive and delicious. The bicycles were basic and not the most comfortable to ride, but this is common here. Bring your own toilet paper and sanitizer as some stops are not well equipped.
Thanks to Vu Nguyen's excellent planning and hospitality, the day went well. The bus trip was pleasant, and food and drink (including a free lunch) were given. A wealth of information; Vu's knowledge of statistical information, facts, and dates was impressive. We lucked out with pleasant fall weather: bright but not scorching, and crowds at the attractions were manageable. Sunset at the distant Bich Dong pagoda after a late afternoon bike ride was unforgettable.
It was a pleasure to be with the other travelers on the trip. The tour guide Bob was very informative and very attentive. Excellent guide!!
We did not get the itinerary we booked for Ninh Binh. We did not want cycling but it was on the tour. We did not want Mua Cave either but it was on the tour. We also wanted Trang An but went to Tam Coc. However, because of flooding at Trang An we did choose Tam Coc since it at least had 1 cave we could travel through. Our tour guide Tam was excellent however though he works for Cozy Vietnam and not Aloha Vietnam that we booked with on TripAdvisor. We should have been told in advance of the tour changes before the day of the tour. We would likely have canceled the tour.
Very nice day with our guide! Aloha team is perfect. Recommendations, support, all is done with the best efficiency and kindness. Thanks for all!
Jenna was a wonderful guide, giving a great array of information about Vietnam’s history & the Ninh Binh area. Jenna is very passionate & knowledgeable about Vietnam’s history & we enjoyed “Halong Bay on land” as the locals call it & the caves very much. We also enjoyed spending the day with Jenna! Thank you Jenna! Sharon & Stephen Stokes
Rose and Jenna were fantastic tour guides! They spoke excellent English, were very knowledgeable and made the day fun and interesting. We wanted to spend some time taking video and pictures and they both were very accommodating to allow us to do that. Although the weather was not so good on the day we went, the boat ride through the caves at Trang An was an absolute highlight.
AMAZING DAY! Our tour guides Rose and Linh were excellent; very knowledgeable, funny and super helpful! They really made this tour! The activities were fantastic, such beautiful surroundings! The perfect way to spend my last day in Vietnam.
The tour was great! Everything was on time, the guide (Sunny) was knowledgeable and friendly. The bus was very nice, with phone chargers and wifi. The tour itself was extremely beautiful, and the included lunch was pretty good. Snow was our guide during the boat tour and she was a ton of fun!
I had a day trip with Ms Jenna in Hoa Lu- Tuyet Tiny Co- Trang An. It was fantastic and organized tour with excellent tour guide. She was very helpful and knowledgeable as well. Highly recommend!
Ninh Binh was refreshing to visit, away from the hustle and bustle of Hanoi. Our tour guide, Linh, was very helpful and always made sure all of us were comfortable during the tour. The caves at Trang An were amazing!
Travelling with family. We really enjoyed the tour as it is already a complete package. Nothing to worry about. The places that we were brought to were really nice. The boat ride is very relaxing and calm. Our tour guide, Linh, was very kind, helpful and accomodating. She also shared a lot about Vietnam and Hanoi's rich culture. Willing to book another tour with them.
We 2 tourists from Spain had daily trip tobTrangvan _ ninh binh. The weather was little bit hot for us so some walking andbhiking were hard. But Rose team guided us very well. Very friendly, smily and helpful. trang an boat trip was our favorite. Very beautiful and relaxing. Hope to come back here in cold weather one day. Thank you :)
Had a wonderful day with our delightful guides Loan and Linh. You get to see the wonderful raw beauty of Vietnam and it's peaceful people. The scenery is otherworldly especially the boat trip down the river. Even though there are many tourists you still get those precious quiet moments where you can soak in the exquisite beauty of Vietnam. Cycling through the village was really lovely, it makes you feel part of everyday life. The temple and history behind it makes you feel part of something truly ancient. Highly recommend it.
I have a wonderful trip with Miss Linh and Rose. Linh explain a lot about Vietnam dynasty hiatory from the 1st king in Hao Lu with its culture. The trip in am tien cave is really worth it with beautiful cave and lake. During boat trip in trang an Linh explain a long the way and keep the trip lively. It is very recommended tour!! If you doubt it, book it now!!
This is first time i go to Ninh Binh. I feel the trip is so nice and i happy with the tour. Guider is so lovely and place which i visited in Ninh Binh is so beautiful.
The tour is packed with different experiences from cave visiting and mountain seeing on a boat. Had to change my pickup location last minute and the organiser was gracious enough to accommodate to the request. The tour guide Jack was friendly and this trip is great for small groups. 👍🏻
The boat ride at Thrang An, going into the caves was quite an experience with beautiful views along the river. Jack our tour guide was really friendly and took good care of us.
Tuyet is my day tourguide in Ninh Binh. She is very professional, and friendly.lot of knowledge About history in Hoa lu ancient capital The boat in Trang An very Nice . I would- like to recomment to every one book tour through Aloha Vietnam Travel as Tuyet ( snow) is The guide
I took i day trip to Ninh Binh and got a really nice service from the local guide named Tuyet. She’s very friendly, funny yet professional, informative, and soooo kind. I got a very good time in Ninh Binh. The Trang An Bout Tour is amazing.
We book for a day trip to Ninh Binh. Everything was so nice from bus, food and itineraries. Jack is a very enthusiastic guide, knowledgable and always available to help us at anytime. Highly recommended!
All the staff very friendly, helpful and excellent english. Lots of different trip packages and options available. Both girls Ms Thuong and Loan was helpful and delivered impressive information about Ninh Binh
Beautiful weather with sightseeing. Enjoyed the trip with Aloha and I will recommend to my friends about this tour. Thanks Ms Thuong the tour guide for every thing
We spent a day going on a tour with Rose. The tour was really good and enjoyable, Rose was managing a bunch of tourists really well and provided info during a tour. Good work Rose & well done. Thanks
My husband and I did a day tour to the National Park in Ninh Binh with Ms Thao and it was a lovely and organized trip. We were greeted by Ms Thao at our hotel and taken by car to the Cuc Phong National Park which was about a 25 minute drive from our hotel. Ms Thao explained a little bit about the area and Vietnamese culture during the drive there and provided us with snacks and bottled water. We had a great tour of the primate and turtle sanctuaries and then hiked up to cave with great views of the park. Lunch was organized at a local restaurant in the park and Ms Thao was very flexible with the itinerary and let us squeeze in the Bear Sanctuary, which we highly recommend. It’s unfortunately not a great situation right now in Cuc Phong for wildlife and a part from the sanctuaries we didn’t see any animals or birds. This isn’t a problem with the tour, but certainly a broader issue of conservation. I would recommend this tour.
The one day trip is perfect way seeing all the amazing views which honestly left me breathless. Highly recommended. And big thanks to our guide Thao, she did amazingly!
We loved Everything about the tour but the best thing was our guide Phoenix Smiling girl and good English. Best regards from Greece and Albania and Denmark

Fantastic day, very informative and fun. Would strongly recommend. Tommy did a fantastic job. It was very beautiful trip to Minh Binh with great boat and nice guide I will be back in the future.
Such a great tour, the views are incredible! And the tour guide Tuyet was very friendly and informative. Would definitely recommend this one!
Excellent tour with great views of different landscapes, people so friendly, beautiful food with always plenty to eat for everyone, accommodation was also excellent at Tam coc bungalow, highly recommended.Tour guides rose tam were excellent explained the different places well and had great knowledge of the different places we went.
今天是我第一次到越南來,這個行程也是我買的第一個行程。tommy thi 是我的導遊,在整個行程中他總是充滿活力對他的工作充滿了熱情。還跟我們一起爬了魔羅洞眺望整個陸龍灣。希望我下次來到越南時也能再遇到他。 This is the first time I come to Vietnam for tourist.also the first tour I buy.Tommy thi is the best guy I’ve ever seen in Vietnam .he is being very enrgytic and full with passion while doing his job . hope I can meet him again next time I visit Vietnam . And I’ll never forget this tour in my life.
Tommy was a fantastic guide on our day trip to Ninh Binh. He has a great personality and made the trip really enjoyable. We visited Tuyet Tinh Coc, Mua Cave, and Tam Coc. I hope I can take another tour with him in the future!
Rose and Linh gave the most amazing tour of ninh ninh today. From dragon mountain to trang an, which was just beyond an epic magic experience. These girls know there stuff and I would do this trip all over again with them.
Very informatic and enthusiastic tour guide. Thi was tour guide. Very good. Lots of fun and enjoyed it thoroughly
Our tour guide is the best we’ve had in Hanoi. Despite us joking that Hanoi people don’t have a sense of humour, she had proved us otherwise. The otherwise hot day which made us lethargic, was cast away by her constant chatter which brightens our mood. Her in-depth knowledge on the cultural and historical facts had given us a deeper appreciation of this place. Our family is very grateful to have her today as our tour guide. 2 thumbs up for Ms Thao.
Loan is a very friendly guide! She makes lot of jokes and say interresting informations about tour! Her english is perfect and fluid. I'm french and i understood everything she said! If we can choose our guide for tours, of course I would choose she!! All the best for her!
Loan is wonderful knowledgeable tour guide! Very friendly and kind. She was also a traveler, so she knows what we want! Highly recommend!
Positive points 👍 I found this one day well managed tour package very helpful. 👍 Tour guide (Ms Lead) did really well. She gave information in precised manner. She make group united and keep always things happening. (What I didn't experienced last time in Halong bay one day tour). 👍 Management team took care of small small team such as WiFi, tissues, Security of belongings, drinks when you required. 👍 Driver was at his good. (Previous case he was talking on phone for most of time while driving). 👍 Got good vegetarian food. 👍 Locations were so good. Negative point 👎 No safety seat belts in van. Overall I enjoyed a lot and gave 4½*, ½ is just because of safety belt.😀 Wish you happy journey ahead.🇮🇳🇻🇳
Loan is very friendly guide having lot of informations about the places we visited. More than a guide she was like a friend in the entire tour. I will recommend her to my friends visiting Vietnam. Hinh binh is a must visit place in Vietnam and especially the Trang An Boat trip was amazing and it’s a feather in the cap.
Loan is our tour guide for the Ninh Binh trip on 11th August 2019. She made our trip very interesting by providing complete information of the places what we visited. We are very happy about the entire trip and the Aloha Vietnam travel arrangements. Mohanraj from India

Despite the hot weather, it was fantastic to look around the hoa lu temple and go riding on the boat in the trang an. I should also add that our guide, Loan, was so cute and nice. She explained many things nice and wonderful. I must also thank An for all his careful arrangements.
