Sam guided us both tours - Sam was a very good tour guide during our visit to Ninh Binh. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and showed us some amazing places. Although there were a few moments where we wished for more time to explore, overall, Sam provided a great experience.

Amazing, jam packed and fun! - This trip was AMAZING. 10/10 tour guide (Quy) and our driver (Dong) were so helpful offering us water and sweets throughout to keep us going. The day was filled with exciting activities and information about vietnamese history. We would definitely do this again as it was so enjoyable and he accommodated for us in every way possible eg. If you couldn’t eat meat, he made sure there were lots of vegetarian options. He also offered us Vietnamese hats to shelter from the rain!

Great Tour & Even Better Guide! Thank you Sam! - My friends and I had an amazing time on the Ninh Binh tour! Sam was super helpful and great at explaining the history of Ninh Binh, while also giving us all tips on how to make the most of our time at each location. Make sure to bring great walking shoes as you will be doing a lot of walking (and climbing, which is optional). I highly suggest bringing a fan and towel as well, as it can get super hot throughout the day, especially during the climb. All and all, this is a great experience that you don’t want to miss!

The best tour with the best tour guide Sam! - Really enjoyed our tour guide Sam. He was extremely knowledgeable, funny and hardworking. He made sure everyone was accounted for and no one was left behind during each leg of the trip. You can tell he thoroughly enjoys showing people Vietnam! We visited the temple, rode bikes, 2 hour canoe ride and climbed 500 stairs to the top of the mountain. The views were amazing! I would recommend everyone take this tour and request for Sam! He should get a raise so he can get a new motor bike!
