IncludedYour day begins with a comfortable morning pickup from your hotel in Hanoi. Leave the city’s busy streets behind as you drive south through peaceful countryside landscapes — think green rice paddies, grazing buffalo, and limestone mountains rising in the distance. After about 2 hours, you arrive in beautiful Ninh Binh
Climb nearly 500 stone steps to the summit of Mua Cave for one of the most breathtaking views in northern Vietnam. From the top, you’ll be rewarded with a sweeping panorama of winding rivers, lush rice fields, and dramatic karst peaks stretching to the horizon. It’s the perfect photo stop — and totally worth the climb.
After the hike, relax and recharge with lunch at a local restaurant. Enjoy regional specialties such as goat meat dishes, crispy rice (cơm cháy), fresh vegetables, and other authentic Vietnamese flavors.
Next, board a traditional sampan boat for a peaceful journey through Thung Nang. Locals gently row you along a quiet river surrounded by towering limestone cliffs and golden rice fields. Drift through natural caves and hidden valleys while soaking in the calm, postcard-perfect scenery. It’s slow, serene, and incredibly photogenic.
