What to expect

Day 1: Hanoi – Tam Coc – Hoa Lu – Ninh Binh
Dive into Vietnam's rich history with a day trip to the picturesque province of Ninh Binh. Start your day at 08:30, leaving behind the bustling streets of Hanoi for the serene countryside. After a 2-hour drive, arrive at the Tam Coc River, known as 'Halong Bay on Land.' Here, board a private sampan to cruise through the three caves, surrounded by towering limestone karsts. Enjoy the tranquil waters and breathtaking views before savoring a delicious Vietnamese lunch. In the afternoon, continue to Hoa Lu, Vietnam’s first capital, where you’ll explore ancient ruins and learn about the Dinh and Le Dynasties. For those up for a challenge, a half-hour hike up the limestone hills offers spectacular views of the area.
Option: Instead of visiting Hoa Lu, opt for a scenic bike ride around the village, alongside rice fields nestled amidst limestone mountains. Visit Bich Dong Pagoda, where a climb of 200 steps leads to three ancient cave pagodas with stunning countryside views. Overnight in Ninh Binh.
