Our trip was in January, so the weather was cold and windy, that’s why I thought a day trip should be enough, and it was, but you can easily spend more time there, because the place is beautiful. We were there at the time of Tet, so there was a huge crowd everywhere. Our tour guide was excellent, lunch was plenty and okay. The cycling was amazing, I would definitely would have continued for like another 30 minutes. Overall a good experience, maybe with a little luck there won’t be such a big crowd when you decide to go there.

The guide, Mr. Vu, was great and I learned so much about Vietnamese history. The cycling was through lovely scenery and not too tiring. Boat ride was idyllic. The tour is long and you do a lot, so make sure to get a good night sleep the night before. That being said, if you only have 1 day to see the sights, this is the tour for you.

I enjoyed great tour conducted by Oanh with perfect time management. It was better if our bus was larger and more comfortable, but it didn't take long for the transportation, so not a really big problem.

You really need to see this! I was hesitant taking the tour because I have been visiting many places in the region but I think it was probably the best think I experienced in Vietnam.

I'm not that good at English, but I was able to enjoy it more than I expected because I was guided in easy-to-understand English.
