Wonderful day to Ninh Binh - We chose to visit Trang An and it was the right option. The boat trip was fantastic. Tour guide was very friendly and took care of us very well. Remember to pay extra the entry fee to Mua cave. The view there is stunning.

Amazing Ninh Binh day tour - Harry was our guide for Ninh Binh day tour in early June 2023. He prepared us on the hot weather condition and the amount of time we need to spend on the bamboo boat ride at Trang An as well as the climb up Mua Cave, that helps from the start :) Harry's stories help us appreciate the history and beauty of Hoa Lu ancient capital. In Trang An, he recommended the route for the boat ride so that we could enjoy the temples and catch the 1km cave, that was an experience! Like his stories about driving culture in Vietnam cities. As well as his childhood stories of drying rice grains during rainy times and how he used to catch small fish and snails in the lotus pond. Our family have enjoyed the day trip, and it was an excellent experience having Harry as our guide.

Good tour, good guide, poor planning at the end - It all went well until during the long ride back we went out of the way to pick up some random woman (likely someone who booked a transfer) and then out of the way again to pick up the driver’s son. At the end of the day we all just want to be back in town and have dinner but because of these unscheduled stops, we got back 45 minutes later than we were supposed to. To top it off, the random woman was dropped off first before any of us were. Our guide, Harvey was great though.

Amazing view from the top of Mua Caves - Mua Caves is magnificent with breathtaking view from the top. Totally worth the 25 minutes climb. Tour guide could have tell us more about the places we will be visiting such as the history or interesting trivia. Buffet Lunch was quite disappointing. Dishes were cold and not much food was left to eat. Bus did not send us back to the hotel but left us some distance away from hotel and we had to walk back.
