Tour Description & Additional Info:
You will be collected at 07:30 from your hotel, and you will begin your journey to Ninh Binh (approximately 2 hours driving).
As you leave behind the city, you will notice a change in the landscape, houses and high rises giving way to the beautiful roadside scenery.
On arrival in Ninh Binh City, you will pay a visit to Hoa Lu – the ancient capital of Vietnam.
Here you will visit two temples dedicated to the two kings: King Dinh and King Le.
These temples showcase the unique architecture of ancient Vietnam.
Next, you will go to Tam Coc where you will have lunch at a nice restaurant with many local delicacies. Then you will board a small sampan to visit Tam Coc which translates “three caves.” The two and a half hour boat trip takes you along the glassy river surrounded by majestic limestone cliffs and mysterious caves, as well as past rural scenes of rice paddies and deserted green fields. Tam Coc really has it all. The fresh air and stunning views make for a peaceful yet invigorating experience. The journey will also be packed full of fantastic photo opportunities.
Continue your exploration with a 45-minute cycling tour around the village to discover the life of the local people.
Later, return to the Limousine Bus and head to Mua Cave (Dancing Cave). Ascend almost 500 steps to reach the top of Lying Dragon Mountain, where an amazing panoramic view of Tam Coc awaits. Board the bus again for the journey back to Hanoi, and by the evening, you'll be dropped off at your hotel, concluding a day filled with exploration, cultural experiences, and breathtaking views.
