Highlights
  • Ninh Binh - Ninh Binh is a province in the Red River Delta, located about 90 kilometers from Hanoi, and is easily accessible. This region is blessed with stunning landscapes and famous caves such as Tam Coc – Bich Dong, Trang An cave, Phat Diem cathedral, Van Long natural reserve, and Kim Son.
  • Hoa Lu Temples of the Dinh & Le Dynasties - Situated near the town of Ninh Binh, 90 km south of Hanoi, Hoa Lu Ancient Capital was the capital of the ancient Vietnamese Kingdom of Dai Co Viet in the 10th century. This small kingdom, covering only 300 hectares, existed from the 10th century during the Dinh and Le dynasties to the 11th century during the Ly Dynasty. The kingdom was protected by a citadel and the Yen Ngua limestone hills, which provided a strong defense against the Chinese.
  • Trang An Landscape Complex - This complex features 48 caves connected to 31 wetlands and 2 km of waterborne caves like Sinh Duoc, Dia Linh, and May Cave. Each cave lives up to its name, with Dark Cave having unexpected openings and Light Cave containing extraordinary stone formations. Spending a day exploring the grottoes in Trang An will leave you amazed by the natural beauty of this scenic complex.
  • Mua Caves - Mua Cave is located in Ninh Xuan commune, Hoa Lu district, Ninh Binh. It is about a 2-hour journey from Hanoi. To reach the top, you need to climb 486 stone steps, which is challenging but rewarding. Once you reach the summit, you can enjoy breathtaking views.

Great! - We loved the experience. Mickey was our guide, full of professionalism and sense of humor. Willing to help with whatever we needed. The rest of the staff on board were also lovely. The cruise is a charming experience, being able to see the sunset in the bay, take a swim, do some activity and a short excursion... Very happy with our choice!

Enjoy Halong Bay - I think this is the best tour for those who can speak basic English. We participated as a family of 5, including 3 elementary school children. -All the meals were delicious and well-prepared. -The children were able to fully participate in the canoeing, cave hiking, squid fishing, and other experiences and enjoyed themselves. -The view of Halong Bay from the room changed over time, so we never got bored. -The bay was calm, so we didn't get seasick at all.
