Dear hollyi147! First of all, Vietnam Stunning Travel would like to sincerely thank you for choosing our services for your holiday. We truly appreciate the time you took to share your feedback with us. We are very sorry that some parts of the tour did not fully meet your expectations. We completely understand your feelings, especially regarding the visit to the Incense Village, which may have felt smaller than you had imagined. We sincerely apologize for any disappointment this may have caused. As this was a one-day itinerary covering three destinations that are quite far from each other, we carefully selected locations that we believed would offer the best possible overall experience within the limited time. The Incense Village is a well-known traditional craft village specializing in incense making, where each household operates independently. We selected the family with the largest production scale and the most complete incense-making process in order to provide you with the most authentic and vivid insight into this traditional craft. However, we truly regret that this experience did not fully match your expectations. We are glad that you were able to enjoy other parts of the journey, especially your time in Ninh Binh with our experienced and enthusiastic guide, the peaceful boat trip surrounded by magnificent natural scenery, and the visit to Hoa Lu, where you learned about the proud history and fighting spirit of the Vietnamese people. Once again, please accept our sincere apologies and our heartfelt thanks for your valuable feedback. Your comments are very important to us and will help us improve our services. We truly hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again in the future and provide you with an even better and more memorable experience in our beautiful country. We wish you and your family good health, happiness, and all the best. Warm regards, Vietnam Stunning Travel
