Ninh Binh Tours & Trips
What if you went to Hoa Lu to see old temples, had lunch with a local specialty, and then floated down the Trang An river in a sampan? A day trip to Ninh Binh from Hanoi gets you away from the noise of the city. Climb Ngoa Long mountain to see karst formations, and then drive back to Hanoi to end the tour. See northern Vietnam's "Halong Bay on land" where limestone peaks rise from rice paddies. It’s the perfect break from Hanoi's motorbike madness.
