TOUR ITINERARY

Escape to the tranquility of rural life

We start our wonderful day trip with a two-hour drive from the hustle and bustle capital of Hanoi to the quiet and beautiful Ninh Binh countryside with amazing limestone karsts around, approximately 100 kilometres away. Our first stop is Hoa Lu, the former capital of Vietnam during the Dinh Dynasty (968-980) and early Le Dynasty (980-1009).

Visit Hoa Lu citadel - ancient capital

On arrival, we will visit the Dinh & Le Temples and dive into Vietnam feudalism history. Your knowledgeable guide will take you back to the 10th century with the exciting stories about the Kings will make your day.

Bike ride through Unesco heritage site

Next, it is time for a wonderful guided bike ride through the area to enjoy the fresh air and beautiful scenery as you ride along the backroads with lime karts towering above, rice paddies and local family homes around. You also can experience nature, whilst riding around, which you see the birds, storks, cows, buffalos, especially goats climbing on the karts looks really picturesquely.
Following our bike ride, we’ll stop at a local family home for a traditional lunch to treat yourself a cold beer come with local delicacies before visiting the must-see Tam Coc.

Rowing-boat ride with river soundtrack


Tam Coc is often referred to as the Halong Bay of the land thanks to its spectacular scenery. Here, we’ll do rowing-boat ride passing the serene rice paddies, caves and the surrounding limestone karsts along winding Ngo Dong river. This part is ideally for those who are keen on taking photographs, please make sure your cameras have lots of free space and battery.

Finish the boat trip, we will return to Hanoi. However, if you are still energetic and keen on exploring more, feel free to talk to our guide to cater more for you!
