Perfect day trip from Hanoi - We took a day trip from Hanoi and the bus was comfortable, the guide was excellent. The whole day was filled with interesting activities and beautiful landmarks. We had a blast riding a bicycle! And enjoyed a deep tour inside the forest on a boat. Advice: Check the weather forecast before you go. We had lunch included on a buffet and they had very delicious food and plenty vegan/vegetarian dishes. Gad travel has highly professional approach and all went smoothly

Best tour choice - The company provides highly professional service and we had so much fun doing the activities. Also our guide was knowledgeable and kept our interest. We visited the gems of the area and did unique bicycle tour. The lunch buffet was excellent with a lot of choices and the group had vip tables in a separate room. Van is comfortable and driver was driving good.

Amazing cultural day in the mountains - Our host Ve really made the day all the better with her knowledge of the temples and sunny attitude all day. She led us on an enchanting bike ride to a Buddhist temple and gave us time for photos, managed expectations of the guests, and was a joy to talk about Vietnamese culture with. Highly recommend this day trip for a great mix of learning, nature, and exercise!

Lovely Buffet Lunch - Took 2 hours in the bus to get there. Our 2 tour guides were good however we weren’t supplied with enough water to drink. One as we got on the bus and one when leaving to come back. They were very small bottles. Got dehydrated. The buffet lunch was very good. Lots to chose from. The boat trip up the river and through 3 caves was ok but a bit boring. Was a bit disappointed in the bike ride as not that scenic and wasn’t really countryside, bikes were good. The Long Restaurant where we had lunch tried to short change us 400,000 dong. Overall 7/10.
