completing a jolly day, for a touring program, we felt tired doing the lady buddha and dragon hill hike and boat tour all over Trang an. it was overcast, wish it would be clearer.

This is overall decent experience considering the good deal, reasonably priced. We had a chance to get closer contact with nature by climbing the rocky steps, touching the stalactites and paddling the water sampan boat. Just something minor, for local economy, there are a few small hassles from vendors who try to sell you photos and souvenirs that are okay but if those are not your thing, just learn to say no

We paid for our private experience on our first time visiting the country. Ninh binh remained to be a tranquil countryside but gradually changing and being modernized. Private shops, business and local travel services are found pretty much everywhere and affordable. Just wish we could have had a longer stay. And a big bravo to Dan who gave clear and fun explanations and did perfect timing of events

First impressions are breathtaking nature, vibrant rice paddy fields and smiley people. Activities part of the trip are varied, suitable for people who like to sit back and work out as well, cheap drinks but remember to bring cash

The standard four Ninh Binh tour activities. Small (8-10 people) and definitely luxury bus. Small group, driver and guide (very friendly, positive and enthusiastic Alex) stayed together for the whole day. Lots of interesting history and culture information provided by Alex. Ended the day very tired and happy.

Landed from Danang, my friends and wife opted for this tour right away without hesitation thanks to Alex advice. The weather was super ideal, probably the best we get since we came. Boating was definitely the nicest highlight of the day.

We utilized our time exploring in one day before flying off. Truly a great choice for a tranquil holiday if anyone could stay longer than just one day. The day went so fast with very hectic activities. Narration done well by our local friend. Thanks for all history information and pointing out local customs in the village side of Vietnam. If anyone comes at this time, choose carefully a good restaurant that has space and more comfy seats. Avoid crowed ones.

It was an Easy peasy guided tour we booked exclusively for our group. Doan showed a professional job. One day did not seem to be enough to kinda fully enjoy but we have seen the best parts where the boat takes place. Rain forest ecosystem is well protected and georgeous. We might need cushion for bamboo seats, they hurt a little for a long ride. And maybe provide more umbrellas for rain
