Ninh Binh Day Trip From Hanoi With Tam Coc Boat Ride

A huge shout out to our tour leader Phong “P” who made the entire experience so enjoyable. He was incredibly accommodating, genuinely funny and had such a wonderful attitude. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and he went above and beyond to ensure everyone’s needs and requests were catered for throughout the day. Ninh Binh is simply breathtaking and an absolute must visit. I loved every part of the experience, from the beautiful scenery to the overall atmosphere of the day. I would highly recommend this tour to all my family and friends. If you get P as your tour leader, you’re in for an absolute treat! Thank you, P, for making such a beautiful day even more memorable!

We had an absolutely fantastic time on our tour in Ninh Binh. Everything was wonderful, from the beautiful places we visited to the incredible experiences along the way. Our tour guide was friendly, knowledgeable, professional, and made sure everyone felt welcome and comfortable. The tour guide was excellent, the itinerary was great, and we got to experience so much of Vietnam’s beautiful culture, history, and scenery. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Vietnam! Thank you to our tour guide Jeremy for making our trip so memorable.

Amazing Experience. Thanks Jimmy, amazing guide!

Very good guide, chill, gave us options, tended to our needs, didn’t pressure us to purchase anything or give tip or rush the time. Size of tour was 8 and it worked well. Delicious food. Flexible with where to go and activities to include. Ideas for best photos given & navigated traffic from other tourists well with timing. Free sticky rice mung bean treat at the end.

Very friendly, interesting facts about vietnam, accomodating.

Phong was a great tour guide! I had so much fun exploring beautiful Ninh Binh. I would highly recommend this tour.

The tour was fantastic! Jerry is an amazing guide, she has a very good vibe, is supportive with your needs, carrying, she had a lot of patience being smiling and professional. Her historical, social and cultural information she gave us was very valuable and comprehensive. I totally choose her again with so much joy. The food was also very tasty and traditional. Tom is a professional driver, he kept us safe in very narrow places. The spots we saw and how is the whole tour organized is amazing. Ninh Binh is totally worth being visited, you can feel the authenticity of Vietnam. The only regret we has is that we didn't slept in Ninh Binh for 2 nights. I cannot choose which of the activities I liked most between the boat trip, bycicle trip or the cave temple. Totally worth all the money!

This was the best of Vietnam so far. Beautiful, ideallic scenery with many adventure experience under the guidance of "Tom &Jerry ". The weather was kind for our day out. The Best was floating down the river and cycling through the village to a Pagoda. Highly recommend this day trip from busy Hanoi. Be sure to join with Jerry!

Fantastic day out ,tom and jerry made the trip interesting, talked out the history, gave us enough time for lunch and plenty of toilet breaks when needed ,jerry and Tom are a great asset to the your company ,you should be proud of them ,wouldn't hesitate to have them on plenty of other trips with me and my wife

We had a wonderful day visiting beautiful nature and places and our driver and tour guide Tom and Jerry were amazing, funny, and professionals l. They were giving us lots of useful informations. We would recommend this tour.

The day was thoughtfully planned, starting with a visit to the ancient capital of Hoa Lu and its historic king temples, followed by a hike up to the spectacular Hang Mua (Lying Dragon Mountain) viewpoint, a beautiful boat ride through Tam Coc, a great lunch, and finishing with a relaxing bike ride through the countryside of Ninh Binh. The itinerary offered a wonderful mix of history, culture, breathtaking scenery, and outdoor activities without ever feeling rushed. Throughout the day, our guide Phong made sure we stayed hydrated and comfortable while giving us plenty of space to explore and appreciate the sights at our own pace. Our driver, Lucky, got us around quickly and comfortably, waiting for us after each activity with the refreshing air conditioning of the limo van and cold drinks. A fantastic way to experience the highlights of Ninh Binh in a single day, made even better by Phong's knowledge, patience, and great sense of humor. Highly recommend!

Guide Huang is great. Driver is skilled. Local food was delicuas and safe.

Our family had an amazing experience visiting Nihn Bihn with Aloha Tours. Phong, our tour guide, was knowledgeable and thoughtful. He took the time to explain every the site we visited including the history and the Vietnamese culture. I’ve never had a tour guide that had a smile on his face all day. What an amazing way to end our trip to Vietnam. If you had second thoughts about booking this tour, don’t!

one of the best tours i’ve ever been on. the view at the top of the thousand stairs was so worth it, it made seeing the view from the boats even more special. they gave us so much food at the local restaurant and then we took a nice bike ride through the city. phong kept great energy from pickup to drop off, and made sure everyone was comfortable and having a great time. lucky was a great, safe driver. 10/10 no notes!

We had an awesome day in Ninh Binh. Phong and Lucky were great guides. The views and scenery are unreal. The boat ride is quiet and relaxing and feels like you are in another world. So beautiful!

My wife and I really enjoyed the private tour with a great guide providing good knowledge of the area and history.

Ninh Bình was such a great place to visit. For the first timers I think it is worth to book the tour since it’s very convenient and the tour guide is very helpful and accommodating (Tom and Jerry). Take the bicycle if you can tho its not that long to ride and save that 200.000 VND from the motorbike lmao

An amazing Day! Jerry and Tom were friendly, helpful and very informative and passionate about all the places we visited on this trip. Definitely recommend it.

Jerry was an amazing guide! Funny, warm and informative. She was attentive and made us feel very much at home at every stop. The tour itself was a once in a lifetime opportunity we will never forget. Thank you Jerry for an exceptional tour!

We had the most amazing day exploring Ninh Binh with our tour guide, Jimmy! From hiking and biking to a beautiful boat ride, we got to experience so much of what makes Vietnam special. Lunch was a highlight, too — an incredible traditional Vietnamese meal at a spot right along the Tam Coc boat ride. We were lucky to have such a small group, just my husband and me and two female best friends, which made the experience even more personal and fun. Getting to connect with them and learn so much about Vietnamese culture and history from Jimmy made this day truly memorable. Jimmy was absolutely wonderful, and we couldn’t recommend this excursion enough!

We had an amazing time on our Ninh Binh trip! The views were absolutely beautiful, and the whole experience was unforgettable. Our guide, Phuong aka handsome, was awesome! He was super friendly, knowledgeable, and made the trip even more enjoyable. He took great care of everyone and made sure we had a great time. Every activity was absolutely perfect! Definitely one of the highlights of our Vietnam trip. Highly recommend this tour, especially with Phuong as your guide!

What an amazing experience!!! This was the best tour in Hanoi. Our tour guide, Jimmy, gave a wonderful history of Vietnam as well as a cultural perspective. The boat ride was scenic and relaxing. This tour was a great blend of active experiences (walking, touring, stair climbing, bike riding) and relaxing scenic views. I will recommend to everyone who plans to visit.

The tour guide was very helpful and professional.

Great tour by Tom and Jerry! They were very knowledgeable with information about the tour and moved us along at just the right speed. I highly recommend this tour!

Our Ninh Binh trip was incredible from start to finish and a true highlight of our Vietnam travels. The scenery is just unreal - cruising through the limestone karsts on the boat, the hike up to the viewpoint over the river, the lotus fields, and Hoa Lu Temple. Photos don't do it justice. But what made it truly special was our amazing guide, Jerry. She was super informative, so funny, compassionate, and made sure everyone was looked after and having a great time. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does and loves sharing her culture. She brought so much history and local stories to life that we would have missed on our own. If you do one day trip from Hanoi, make it this one, and if you can, request Jerry. We can't recommend her highly enough!

Jerry was absolutely fantastic in every way. She was so communicative and friendly the entire day. I have learnt so much about Vietnamese history and I would 100% reccomend booking your tour with Jerry - she is the BEST! Thank you for giving us one of the best days of our life.

Jerry was a fantastic tour guide. Very full day with many activities. Lunch was also very tasty. Highly recommend

Very cool. Tom and Jerry did very well. 1010

Jimmy was very knowledgeable about Vietnam, friendly and so accommodating to our group! We really enjoyed the entire tour, from hotel pick up in comfortable van, to visits to the temples, lotus garden, lunch, boat ride & bike ride! We loved it and we appreciated his efforts and positive energy.

Jimmy Nien was our guide and was great. Very enthusiastic. Highly recommend this tour

From booking through to the easy pick\-up at the start of our small\-group tour, communication was excellent\. Peter, our tour guide, arrived on time with a big smile, and the small, luxurious bus was extremely comfortable and expertly driven\. Peter’s knowledge was fantastic, and he delivered everything with such enthusiasm and interest\. The day was fun, interactive and thoroughly enjoyable, making it an experience we would wholeheartedly recommend\. Peter also shared some really insightful tips to help us maximise our time and make the most of our activities during the day\. But what really made the day extra special was Peter going above and beyond his usual duties by arranging a fabulous birthday cake for my wife\. She was absolutely delighted, and it was such a thoughtful gesture to share with the rest of our group\. Thank you, Peter, for making our day so memorable\. We couldn’t recommend this tour highly enough\!

Guide Jimmy knowledgeable with good English. There are lots of different parts to the tour throughout the day they only just managed to fit it all in. We bought a nice souvenir from the hard working rower who did a great job highlighting the scenery whilst working hard.

The entire day was very fun and well worth the time, the tour guide was the best

This was an awesome tour, and Jimmy and our driver were outstanding. This area of Vietnam was very nice and certainly worth the trip.

Wonderful adventure with lots of steps up a mountain, lots of beauty and spirituality, incredible food, amazing boat ride, easy bike ride and fantastic day!

Tour guide Huong, aka Jerry, was a great tour guide. She is very kind, punctual and knowledgeable. The whole experience was a lot of fun. Must do day-trip from Hanoi.

What a great tour. It's a full day and it was extremely hot but we packed a lot in. Visit to a temple, the 500 stair walk, lotus fields, boat ride on river and through caves and a bike ride. Very knowledgeable tour guide who explained a lot about Vietnamese culture. Would definitely recommend

Amazing day in Ninh Binh with Jimmy! The bus was very luxurious! Then a fantastic guided day of activities! The river rowboat ride through the caves with the surrounding lotus flowers was a highlight! The delicious lunch at a local restaurant was great too. Highly recommend this tour!

Had a great day with Jimmy and the driver who delivered us everywhere safely. Jimmy was great fun and gave lots of information about the places we visited and the local culture and customs. Was a long day, but didn’t feel rushed at all.

Great guide (English speaking). Pace on the bikes was fast enough to be fun but not rushed. Great way to get out of the city for a day.

Great small group tour, Jerry was a wonderful guide and took care of us. The Mountain hike is tough but worth it, bring water and good shoes. Also secommend you bring at least 500k VND per person, there are some "suggested" tips and cash only options/additions.

This tour was fantastic. The locations that were chosen were exactly what I wanted out of Ninh Binh. The tour guide Huong was really helpful and knowledgeable. She handled everything efficiently and gave me exactly the amount of information I wanted for each location. She kept time well and guided us effectively through each location. Thank you Jerry!

We had a great day with our guide Jerry. The information of the different destinations was really good. The food that was served was also delicious. Overall a great experience!

Jimmy was our guide and he was fantastic, informative, kind and a much fun. Highly recommend this tour as it takes you away from city for beautiful sights and views!

Small group of 8 person (Lucky 8, like our guid said). Helped alot to get attention and easy to get to know the group, and easy to ask questions. Good planned and the weather was with us all the way, and the guide talked pretty well English & funny, made the tour really good about all the facts about Ninh Bin +++ learned alot on a fun way and made the history about Vietnam really interesting(more interesting).

We had a great time with a well balanced trip for all involved. Had nice knowledgeable guide that looks after us. Nice food for lunch too.

Very beautiful nature with great activities planned by Aloha. Phong our tour guide was awesome. Local population is friendly and welcoming

One of the best group trips I’ve ever had, was so well organized, we were so lucky that we were only a group of eight and we had Phong our tour guide, he did an amazing job. They were picked up in front of our hotel at the exact time, the trip and the tour was very well organized with saw a lot in one day. We got mire then a taste of Ninh bin, I highly recommend if you I have one day to spend outside of Hanoi

Great day from start to finish! We loved the whole day the cycling was a big hit with my 9 year old. Lunch was lovely. The whole thing well organised
