Your adventure begins with a hotel pickup from Hanoi and a scenic drive to Ninh Binh. Once there, you'll take a brief break amidst natural beauty. Your first destination will be Hoa Lu, the ancient capital of Vietnam, where you'll marvel at the architectural wonders of King Dinh and King Le's 17th-century temples. You'll then get an insight into local village life during a cycling tour. Next, enjoy a buffet with local delicacies like goat meat, fried rice, and vegetarian options.
After lunch, you'll visit Trang An, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2014, known for its stunning tunnel cave system.
