We did the Ninh Binh: Hoa Lu - Tam Coc Full day tour which was just an amazing experience. The tour was perfectly organised, with a lot of unique adventures. Phillip was the perfect tour guide who took really care of us and is extremely knowledgeable about the cultural and historical sites visited. What a day, thanks a lot to the whole team!
The sights were beautiful. Lotus plantation. River ride. Delicious lunch and a wonderful home visit for a tiny taste of real life in Vietnam. Phil the tour guide is knowledgeable and very entertaining. A great day.
Phil, our guide, was incredibly knowledgeable and brought the culture of Ninh Binh and Vietnam to life, allowing us to truly appreciate their rich heritage and people. His meticulous attention to detail and commitment to our comfort and security ensured we felt in the best hands. I highly recommend taking the time to plan your trip around Phil, who is undoubtedly the best tour guide I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with during my extensive travels. Thank you, Phil and Jerry, for an unforgettable experience. We look forward to returning!
We are so glad we did this tour as we didn't know about Ninh Binh until we realised Hanoi was too chaotic for us to stay for 3 days and we wanted to see some countryside. Our hotel La Siesta Premium recommended Amazing Ninh Binh due to feedback from previous customers so they booked it for us directly. It was the best experience we had in Vietnam, even though we loved Halong Bay, this tour had so many great parts to it, which made it unforgettable. The bike ride we did was in a different location to where other tour groups took theirs, as ours took us to a small village and then the home of the family we visited. We loved seeing a farmhouse and family lifestyle to get to know the local culture. We visited in the following order: mua cave for the panoramic view, the climb up is very tough so do take lots of breaks. Bike ride, family visit, temple visit, tam coc and the old citadel. The lunch was generous and delicious, I tried bits of it though I was unwell from the previous nights meal in hanoi, so they catered to my needs as I couldn't eat much. Phil was our guide, his English was excellent and the information he gave was very insightful, we learnt a lot about Vietbamese history. He was incredibly courteous. There were only 5 of us in the group which should have been for a maximum of 8, there was a solo female traveller with us and he looked after her. There were plenty of toilet breaks and water provided. I am a tour guide in the UK and it was such a pleasure to meet Phil, we thank him so much for such an excellent day and experience. It is a long day but totally worth it! We have recommended this company to our friends and family who want to visit after seeing our pictures!
Tom was an excellent guide, we really enjoyed his knowledge and his excellent English. I highly recommend this tour, we really enjoyed Tom.
We enjoyed the Guide's fun and loving explanation of Vietnam. He spoke well and the content was easy to understand.
