I am grateful for the incredible Ninh Binh tour experience your agency provided. The well-planned itinerary, stunning landscapes, and excellent service exceeded my expectations. Special thanks to the knowledgeable guide and the thoughtful arrangements. I look forward to booking with BestPrice team for the future.
we love the cycling activity...nice experience
we were 4 pax packed in one boat. Each boat should be for 2 persons. And the guide should've accompany us during the boat trip. Also most of the temples are under construction so we couldn't really enjoy it.
Good scenery and boat rides – suitable for children and old folks.Nice landscape…………….
too mild for teenagers………………………………
