Fantastic day. Very early start… 7:00am and a long day but well worth it. Highlight’s the boat trip but make sure you get a healthy younger rower but we helped our very old lady along as you can row too. Boat trip took about two hours so hold onto your bladder as no toilet stops. Only attempt the hike if you can but even if not just go up 200 steps and enjoy the view. The lotus pond is worth the visit anyway. Expect a long day but it is so worth it. FYI we got back to our hotel in Hanoi at around 8pm

Beautiful scenery, unique boat tour although much too long ( especially for the local ladies rowing the boats for 2 hours non-stop!). Our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable in the history of Viet Nam ( especially as we visited the first national capital). We enjoyed this tour more than the Bay of Ha Long which requires 6 hours on a bus, is way too crowded and almost a tourist trap !
We had a great time in Vietnam all because of Lee, thank you Lee for arranging everything we needed in Vietnam, trip was perfectly arranged we didn't wait for anything here.. Also thank you so much for surprise anniversary cake on the cruise❤️ this trip is the best vacation I had in years with my husband.. I would like to recommend Vietnam local Mr Lee travel agency to my friends and also I will consider Lee as our travel guide next time also 🤟🫶🥰
Our tour guide Anh was really fun and helpful! Would definitely recommend and use the same tour for friends and family. The food and experience was worth it!
Quý was an amazing tour guide! It was truly a beautiful experience! The 500 steps is very tough but worth the view and the best part was the boat ride, super beautiful and relaxing!
We had an amazing day trip from Hanoi to Ninh Bình (Trang An, Hoa Lu & Mua Cave). The scenery was beautiful, especially the boat ride through Trang An with its limestone mountains, rivers, and caves, and the view from Mua Cave. The peaceful countryside made the day feel unforgettable. Our guide, Mr. Lee, was excellent. He was friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable, and he spoke very good English. Everything was well organized, transportation was comfortable, and the whole day ran smoothly. This was one of the best experiences of our Vietnam trip. I highly recommend this tour and Mr. Lee.
Cuong AKA James was a wonderful guide! There were 31 guests on the tour and we all got along very well. James fostered great cooperation and enthusiasm among the group members. We started our tour with the hike, followed by the boat ride on the river, and ended at the Temple. The day was chock full of activity and well worth all the sweat and relentless heat. I had a wonderful time and highly recommend this tour for anyone who visits Ha Noi.
We had a fantastic private tour of Ninh Binh with Lee, who was knowledgeable, friendly, and full of positive energy. He shared local insights, took us off the beaten path, and even introduced us to a delicious home-cooked meal at a local family’s house which was a true highlight of the day. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore Ninh Binh with a genuine local touch!
Lee was our guide he was just amazing. must try with them everything was just so perfect with the timing.Also lee is cutee
Had a great time….our guide Mr Lee was very helpful, friendly and a great singer….well organised, can’t forget jamming over songs for the entire journey!!!
We had a great experience and great trip to Vietnam with the best tour guide Mr. Lee he was really sweet and knowledgeable explained us each and everything in detail and helped us a lot to explore Hanoi city. If you plan a trip to Vietnam please meet him !!! 🇻🇳✨
What a experience it was with mr Lee we got top quality service with the best guide We will like to thank me lee we had great experience with him a fun day
Absolutely amazing trip. Nothing but high praise for Lee who organised the trip so smoothly. He is a brilliant guide, very helpful and informative. Each part of the trip is unique in itself, from a lovely bike ride, followed by a boat ride through beautiful scenery and then a must see climb to see some iconic Vietnamese views (it’s tricky, but try to make it to the top!) One of the best tours I’ve done!
Lee is very nice guide , I love him so much ! I highly recommend the tour with everybody and enjoy the rest of stay in Vietnam ! Thank for everything, Lee , you are the best of my heart
The trip was amazing and the Mr Quang was an amazing guide and a gentleman who guided us through every point and explained everything…really wonderful trip and we enjoyed a lot
Really nice tour! You get to see a little bit of everything and the bike ride is so much fun! Keep in mind is very hot in August, so wear appropriate clothes. Lee, our tour guide, offered some history learnings and cultural insights, which was my favorite part.
I can’t say enough wonderful things about our incredible guide Lee. He made the whole day an exciting adventure. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and lots of fun. It was an intensive day filled with exciting activities that allowed us to experience the very best of this beautiful part of Vietnam. Highly recommend.
Our guide, Lee, was excellent! He was very knowledgeable about the sights we saw and was able to impart a vast amount of knowledge about them in a short amount of time. His command of the English language was great and his diction was easily understandable. The time allotted was perfect for the sights in our itinerary. Lee was also very concerned about our comfort and well-being which showed when he would ask each of us how we were doing and if there was anything he could to to help. The bus used for the tour was also great. Each seat had 2 USB ports to charge your electronic devices. The seats were comfortable and could be reclined. The bus driver drove the bus smoothly which contributed to a stress free trip to and from our different locations. Overall, I would highly recommend participating in this tour.
Booked a day before the trip and they were able to accommodate us. Lee, our guide, communicated with us in a timely and professional manner. His English skills is very good and is able to herd our group well by giving good instructions. Limousine bus was very clean and comfortable. Driver drive safely. Ample time was given to spend in each place / stop. Did not feel rush at all nor too long/boring. Bicycle route was fun even for someone not active or has not touched a bike for a long time. He takes great pictures too! Great job to Lee and to Vietnam Tour!
The experience was amazing. The travel guide Lee was really friendly and extremely helpful with good English communication . Would definitely recommend it to any tourist.
The tourguide Lee was very friendly and had everything arranged. Everything went smoothly at on time. Hé is definitely recommendend.
We had an amazing time during the tour with Mr Lee .He gave us enough of time to explore all the places .He has good knowledge about the history of the place.He waited patiently for us even though some of us were a bit late after visiting a place .He has a very clear accent so it's very easy to follow his instructions!!!
Everything went really smooth with the visit, our guide Lee was really helpful and answered all of our questions. Nice experience overall
Great action packed day. A good mix of temples, boat trip then a huge step walk with amazing views. Our tour guide Lee was friendly and professional and helped us every step of the way. The limousine bus was cool and faultless and the buffet lunch was delicious too. We would definitely recommend this tour and it was great value for money.
The day was packed, and despite blistering heat it couldn’t have gone smoother. Its a varied day with temples to start (Bai Dinh) then a buffet lunch (spring rolls were Amazing) followed by boating at Trang An finished off with a short trek at Mua Cave to the top of Dragon Mountain the views are worth it (especially on the Dragon side). Lee was a great guide who knew exactly how to cajole and motivate groups members to keep to a tight schedule.
Well organized program!! Guide is friendly, helpful and punctual. Knows his stuff well. Lee is a warm personality and highly motivated guide who always offered us a friendly atmosphere troughout the tour.
We had an amazing day exploring mua cave and trang an. Our tour guide Lee made sure we were comfortable and answered all questions. It was the by far the best day we spent in vietnam.
This is one of the best group tours I have ever done. Lee was our tour guide. The tour started with a visit to the Bah Dinh Pagoda which was beautiful. From there we had a buffet lunch which was excellent. Next we did a bamboo boat ride through the mountains which is one of the best things I have ever experienced in my life. Lastly we finished with a hike up Dragon Mountain with breathtaking views at the top and a beautiful lotus farm at the bottom. Overall this was a highlight for my trip in Vietnam. Lee was excellent with providing information and managing timings despite the weather taking a bad turn midday with heavy rain, we were able to achieve everything. I would highly recommend anyone visiting Ning Bing region to jump on this tour.
It was great to do our excursion with Lee! We went to Ninh Binh with him. Very kind and he showed us very nice places. We recommend him!!!
Tour was well organized and on time. It’s perfect alternative if you’d like to avoid the crowd of Halong Bay, I also prefer this one as it’s less touristy and have more variety of places to visit. We had an inland kayak tour and climbed dragon mountain, Quang is very informative too and takes great photos! Will definitely recommend to my friends!
Dear Mr. Quang. I want to send you some reviews about your striking services. My friends and I highly appreciate what you supplied to us. You were hospitable, friendly, and energic all the time, always making us more comfortable on the tour. Also, your services make us quite surprising and enjoyable. I will recommend your service to our relatives and see you sôn. Thank you so much for a great trip! Harry Nguyen
