We had a wonderful tour. Giang is a very experienced English speaking guide, gave us info and local hints about the area people and etc. Tour includes cycling as well hiking and Trang an with an 1.5 hour route. I would definately recommend. We have chosen the vip bus service, have wifi during the travel comfortable seats able to charge your phone.

I had an amazing experience! Guang is a fantastic tour guide. Highly recommend
Quite an eventful experience! The tour guide was very supportive and informative, excellent support and very picturesque scenes!! Definitely recommended if you're coming to Hanoi.
We had a great guided tour by Peter of Ninh Binh which included a bike tour to the temple, then followed by an amazing lunch buffet, and then followed by the trang an boat tour and finally climbing the 500 steps up the lying dragon mountain.
Peter was a great tour guide and the tour was nice, we didn’t feel rushed and had enough time to enjoy all the sights.
Chong aka Golden goat was awesome! We were worried about pickup but he came right up and assured us that we were at the right place. During the day he helped us stay organized to do everything on time
Enjoyed the trip & Peter was an excellent guide
Ninh Binh Trip was fantastic. The cycling around the hills and boat trip through the caves felt unrealistic and mesmerising. Peter, the trip guide took care of us very well and gave the needful information at the places required.
Trip was really good- prepare for a busy day and pack plenty of water! Bryan was excellent and kept the energy high. Only let down was the food- a lot of it had ran out at the buffet by the time we arrived but that didn’t spoil our day!
Overall I had am enjoyable day , the activities were all pre arranged and our guide was very imformative explaining the itineray throughout the day. Brian our guide was very knowledgeable about backhround of Vietnam, he seemed passionate about his culture and history which was evident in his talks. Brian was approachablw and answered questions, he was a great guide and embassador for your company. The thing I would change to the itinary would be to have spent longer at Mua Cave, i may of got to top of the steps one hour not long enough to .much to do and see. The restaurant well all i can say it was disappointing, food not great, staff shouted at each other. Overall had great day . Thanks to Brian, driver and weather.
Good experience, we had to speed sometimes but it was necessary to do every 3 places in one day because Ninh binh is far from Hanoi. Our guide, Brian, suceed to give the good times of rendez-vous to finish in time and his application when we had questions shows his professionalism.
Mr Brian is a great guide! 👑 He taught us a lot about the history of Vietnam and was very helpful. Highly recommend this trip!
We had an absolute blast on our trip to Ninh Binh, and a huge part of that was thanks to our amazing guide, Brian! From start to finish, the whole day was smooth, well-organized, and full of incredible experiences. Brian is extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and speaks great English. He shared so many interesting historical facts and local insights that really brought the places we visited to life. He also went out of his way to make sure everyone in the group was comfortable and took the time to help us take the best photos. The landscapes in Ninh Binh are breathtaking—the boat ride, the views, and the temples were all highlights of our trip to Vietnam.
Brilliant day with Brian today, very helpful cheerful chap 😁
super amazing, the bike ride is so cool, the boat ride is even better, the bus is comfy, the guide Braian is friendly and communicative
Peter, our tour guide was very cheerful..He explained every little minor things. Our bus was very comfortable and smooth. Overall, we had an amazing experience.. Thank you to our bus driver too who kept us safe during our trip.
The Ninh Binh tour from Hanoi was great, with detailed explanations of everything and all the options to explore the city, both paid and free. They handled the bad weather issues easily.
Its was vry good. Beautiful landscape. Peter our tour guude is very good too, we love it.
We took a trip to Ninh Binh with the delightful Peter. He provided comprehensive and humorous explanations—both during the journey and at the sites we visited. Everything was top-notch; we had a wonderful time and highly recommend taking a trip with him.
The whole day was anazing! Our tour guide was Cuong aka Golden Goat, a really kind dude who told us many information about every sightseeing spot and were always open to answer questions! Also big plus is that he speaks English quite well!
An absolutely outstanding experience! I booked this tour through Viator to explore Hoa Lu, Trang An and Mua Caves, and it was simply beautiful from start to finish. The scenery was breathtaking.. truly Tuyệt đẹp (absolutely beautiful) A special mention to our guide, Peter Hoàng, who also goes by Peter Pan or Parker (whichever helps you remember his name! 🫡😂). He was exceptional — friendly, knowledgeable, entertaining and incredibly helpful throughout the trip. He made the entire experience even more enjoyable. If you're planning to visit these three beautiful destinations in Vietnam, I would highly recommend this tour without a second thought. A wonderful experience, stunning locations and a fantastic guide. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Vietnam!

A great full day tour covering all the main highlights of Ninh Binh, including the beautiful Trang An boat ride. Everything was very well organized. Our guide, Qui, was friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive to everyone in the group. I'm really glad I booked this tour!
Brian, thank you for the history, genuiness and great company! This is probably the 100th tour you've provided but you didn't loose your energy from morning to sun down! Despite the language barrier with Mr. Thoi, our driver, he never failed to greet us with a smile when we returned from our tour. Thank you again Brian and Mr. Thoi! Best experience of our trip was the Trang An boat tour - BREATHTAKING! Overall enjoyed our trip in Hanoi and Ninh Binh ❤️ Credits to Bobby, who suggested this tour. An amazing staff of Amira Hotel Hanoi who made sure our itinerary was ironed out from pick-up to drop-off.
