Incredible Full-Day Ninh Binh Tour from Hanoi with Mr. Day – A Truly Memorable Experience! - We had an amazing full-day trip to Ninh Binh from Hanoi, and it was truly a highlight of our Vietnam journey!
Our guide, Mr. Day, was full of energy, enthusiasm, and deep knowledge about each place we visited. He shared fascinating insights into the history and cultural significance of the sites, making the tour not just fun but also informative.
The bicycle ride through the countryside 🚴♂️ and the peaceful one-hour boat ride through the stunning landscape were absolute highlights.
Mr. Day managed the entire day with great communication and care, ensuring we were comfortable and engaged throughout. And we absolutely loved his signature wake-up call – "Wakey-Wakey!" – every time we approached a new spot. It added a fun and personal touch to the day!
Highly recommend this tour and Mr. Day for anyone visiting Ninh Binh!
