Description
Begin your day with a convenient pickup from your hotel in Hanoi's Old Quarter. Travel in comfort to Ninh Binh Province, often referred to as the 'Ha Long Bay on Land.' Enjoy a short rest stop along the way before arriving at your first destination.
Explore Hoa Lu, Vietnam's first capital, dating back to the 10th century. Visit the ancient temples dedicated to King Dinh and King Le, and learn about the country's fascinating history and royal dynasties.
Next, savor a delicious buffet lunch at a local restaurant, featuring regional specialties and vegetarian options. After lunch, board a traditional sampan boat and cruise through the magnificent Trang An Landscape Complex, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Drift along peaceful rivers surrounded by towering limestone mountains, pass through mysterious caves, and visit ancient temples hidden among the dramatic scenery.
Continue to Mua Cave and climb nearly 500 stone steps to the top of Ngoa Long (Lying Dragon Mountain). From the summit, enjoy one of Vietnam's most iconic panoramic views overlooking Tam Coc's rice fields, winding rivers, and limestone karsts—the perfect spot for unforgettable photos.
Finally, relax on the journey back to Hanoi, with a drop-off at your hotel in the Old Quarter.
