Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Hanoi Opera House, 01 Trang Tien, Hanoi 100000 Vietnam
We will meet our guide there.
Duration: 10 minutes
Stop At: Hoa Lu Ancient Capital, Ninh Binh Vietnam
Our first destination is Hoa Lu, the location of the capital of Vietnam during the Dinh Dynasty (968-980) and early Le Dynasty (980-1009). The ancient citadel once covered 300 hectares of land, however the passage of time has left few remains of this once glorious capital of the Vietnam.
On arrival, dive into history at the Dinh & Le Temples. Restored in the 17th century, the temples are dedicated to the Dinh and Le emperors and believed to be built on the original foundations of the old palaces from the 11th and 12th centuries.
Next it's time for the biking part of the tour, as you hop on a bike for a 12 kilometre bike ride through the area, lime karsts towering above you as you ride along backroads and beautiful scenery... experiences you just don't get on other Hanoi tours!
We'll stop and visit a local family for home host lunch in this area and learn the Vietnamese culture through their daily activities
Duration: 4 hours 30 minutes
Stop At: Trang An Landscape Complex, Ky Lan Tan Thanh, Ninh Binh 430000 Vietnam
We will visit Trang An, a new addition to UNESCO’s list of heritage sites. Honoured as of June 2014, the 10,000-hectare Trang An complex comprises three areas: the Trang An – Tam Coc – Bich Dong ecological site, the Hoa Lu imperial capital, and the Hoa Lu primitive forests. It is often referred to as the Halong Bay of the land due to its spectacular scenery: lime karsts rise up of the ground to tower over the region, and is a truly wonderful sight to see.
Here, we’ll board row boats for a 3 to 3.5-hour journey through caves, passing local villages along the river system of the Red River Delta. The scenery comprises of lush green rice paddies during the rice growing seasons and the surrounding limestone karsts make for a stunning backdrop, presenting many photo opportunities for the keen photographers amongst the group.

The tour was wonderful We enjoyed the biking and the boat ride and lunch at a private home was great
Nice guide and a lovely tour in the Ninh Binh area. We stopped by a local family for lunch, It was great. I'd love to have a bigger and faster bike tour.
Wonderful way to see the countryside, Tam Coc and the limestone karsts! Our guide was delightful and shared many interesting facts about his country and region. Bikes were in good condition and the lunch was overwhelming! Take an appetite! Also take bottled water with you! not many vendors there in November.
Really enjoyed this trip, about an hour on a comfortable pushbike and and hour on a row boat through some stunning landscapes. Guide was very helpful and informative.
A great day from start to finish .. our wonderful friendly and funny guide Dong called me the night before to let me know what time he would be picking me up in the morning. His happy face greeted me as I came down the stairs and the smiles and laughter continued through the day as we rode, walked, ate, experienced and floated our way around some of the most beautiful scenery I have seen in Vietnam. No wonder Tam Coc is called Halong Bay on land .. serenely stunning. A great day with a fab guide in a beautiful part of Vietnam.
One of the best experiences during our stay in Hanoi. Our guide Tom was great, informative, friendly and helpful. The whole experience was incredible, though the bike part was a bit rocky and tough. Would repeat it anytime !
