Overview

Ninh Binh is a renowned tourist destination, often referred to as "Ha Long Bay on land" due to its striking limestone karst landscapes and unique, interconnected cave systems. Located just 100 kilometers south of Hanoi—a 2.5-hour drive—it is an ideal choice for a one-day excursion. Drawing on extensive experience and thorough research, NinhBinh Excursion has built an engaging tour—"Hoa Lu, Tam Coc Boat Ride & Mua Cave"—that allows visitors to not only take in the breathtaking scenery but also explore Vietnam’s feudal history from a millennium ago, all while enjoying a cycling tour through the local countryside.
