Enjoyable but can be tiring - This was not your usual itinerary and involves travelling long distances. Our guide was very good, professional and informative and explained things in detail. Lunch was good and interesting at Duong Lam village. We enjoyed ourselves on this tour, thank you Asia Travel & Leisure!

Tranquility after the madness that is Hanoi - Whilst this tour is comparatively expensive, it took in much more than just Quang Phu Cau. Our guide was Sunny. He was full of stories, information and had a resounding love of his country which bled through in everything he said. Contact with Alex in the office was easy and efficient. The tour itself was full of photo opportunities and off the beaten track. We hardly saw any other tourists all day which was a refreshing change from the madness that is Hanoi. I'm sure you'll enjoy your trip as much as we did.

Countryside Day Tour - Despite the clouds and the unexpected on/off light rain, I had a great day with my tour guides Ziap and Tan. They shared so much information with me about the pagodas, temples, the villages and people. The Thấy Pagoda was beautiful. I was amazed that so many Feng Shui and Yin-Yang principles were part of the design. The Duong Lam village was charming with all the small streets. It was a good way to see the life of the locals. The Quảng Phủ Cáo village was still busy with the locals preparing the incense for Tết. I recommend going on a sunny and/or dry day so you can see the full process. I would love to go back to see this. I recommend this day trip to anyone who wants to step outside busy Hanoi and see locals and countryside.
