This was an amazing experience with young Henry who is so passionate about showing people his culture and how things are made. He has great English skills and is always eager to learn more. A great photographer as well. The understanding of the traditional Conical Vietnamese hat and watching the ladies who have been handed down these amazing skills from generations is also quite something. Henry loves to explain and answer all your questions. A young man who has great aspirations to further himself is highly commendable. All the best young man. 11/10!!

To start off it is difficult to adequately describe the pristine beauty and sights we experienced today - just wow! Our tour guide ‘Bruce Lee’ was absolutely amazing. His knowledge, passion and enthusiasm in sharing the history and culture of Vietnam was sincerely appreciated. We are travelling as a group of mature sisters who enjoy a drink or three and Bruce ensured we had plenty of opportunities to stop to get extra supplies (beer, wine and mixers) and endured the endless bathroom breaks needed with grace and humour. Highly recommend this tour and make sure you ask for Bruce Lee to be your guide 😀Despite the misty weather, Hoa made the entire trip an absolute memorable one. As a solo traveller, i felt completely safe and I truly appreciated Hoa’s knowledge and the pride for his beautiful country. What I also appreciated was Hoa would inform me in advance when it was appropriate to tip people and how much. Additionally, Hoa made sure i was well catered for during the trip, which included providing an umbrella and poncho in case it rained. I would highly recommend giving this tour a go, you will be in great hands if you are guided by Hoa.The most beautiful experience at our short hub in Hanoi. We are very pleased with the choice of this day trip, where we both came around incense village, ancient capital Hoa Lu and wonderful Ninh Binh (beautiful nature).Great must do experience while in Hanoi. Our guide Nien was very good English speaking tour guide who explained everything we needed to know about the chaotic city including all its history and religion. He made sure everything went smoothly without delay. Boat ride a lot of fun, maybe a little too long though. Local temple was great to learn about the religion. I sense farm was interesting look at local ways with a beautiful opportunity for some great pictures.
