This 12 to 13-hour group tour takes you from Hanoi to Hoa Lu, Tam Coc, and Mua Cave by air-conditioned minibus, bamboo boat, and bicycle. English-speaking guides such as Sunny, Linh, and Viet lead the day. Expect excellent scenery, a buffet lunch, optional cycling, and nearly 500 steps for the best view.

“This was probably one of the main highlights of our Hanoi trip. It was so nice to turn off our brain and let Sunny guide us through Ninh Binh. Sunny was an awesome tour guide and hilarious. He kept us entertained and we learned so much about the history of Hanoi through his hilarious pop culture references. Literally had another tour guide after this trip and I said “I miss Sunny!””

He was incredibly kind, engaging, showed us all of the major sites but also had such a wide breathe of information and facts about all the places we visited. He was excellent and dodging the massive crowds and finding the best places to take pictures (he also has an eye for photography and took some amazing pictures of us) Rob was very attentive, making sure we were travelling okay in the extreme heat,…”

“This was one of my favourite activities on our trip to Rome! We hired mountain bikes all day, and spent about 4 hours going along the trail and back again. Some of the route is very bumpy and so we had to bike along the sides but this made for a really fun cycle! Lots to see along the route and we even stopped to sit on the grass to have a picnic with wine. Would recommend. Route there and back was about 15-16km.”
