What to expect

Embark on a journey of discovery as we whisk you away from your hotel at 7am, heading towards the culturally rich Ninh Binh province, a scenic 120km drive from Hanoi city. Your expert guide will share fascinating insights into Vietnam's history and culture throughout the day.

The first stop is Hoa Lu, the ancient capital of Vietnam. Here, you'll be awestruck by the grandeur of the temples dedicated to King Dinh and King Le, the first two emperors of ancient Vietnam. These architectural gems, built in the 17th century, are a testament to Vietnam's rich past. Following this, we'll take a leisurely cycle around local villages, offering you an authentic glimpse into rural life.

After trying a buffet lunch with local delicacies, including goat meat and fried rice (with vegetarian options), you'll embark on a serene bamboo boat ride through Tam Coc. Often referred to as "Halong Bay on land", its beauty is truly mesmerising with verdant paddy fields, tranquil rivers, and an awe-inspiring cave system. You'll then return to Hanoi by shuttle bus, arriving back at your hotel between 6.30 pm and 7.00pm.
