Can we book a transfer after our tour concludes at the marina? We will fly out of HPH Airport at 13:10, which is 30 minutes from the marina. We are 3 adults and 1 child.

The journey from the marina takes approximately 2.5 hours. For domestic flights, you should arrive at the airport at least 30 minutes in advance. For international flights, it's recommended to arrive at least 1 hour early to complete check-in and prepare travel documents.

What time does the tour end, and when will we return to Hanoi?

The tour typically ends around 3 PM, allowing enough time for transfers to the airport.

I am interested in your 5 day Pu Luong, Ninh Binh, and Bay tour. However, will be traveling solo and was wondering how big of a group I would be traveling in and if it's the entire group that travels together through all destinations? As I am by myself - I would prefer to among other travelers!

If you have already booked your hotel in Hanoi, please let me know the name so I can arrange the pick-up. The pick-up will be between 7:00 - 7:30 AM. A staff member will contact you the day before to confirm, as the exact time may vary depending on traffic conditions in the city. Moreover, if you have any food restrictions or allergies, please let me know, and I can adjust the meals accordingly.

What are the accommodation options in Hanoi and Mai Chau?

In Hanoi, you can consider options like Mina, Emerald Waters, or Jacosmo. In Mai Chau, we recommend Mai Chau Rustic Home or Lim House.

What is the cancellation policy if I have to change my travel plans?

The cancellation policy varies, with no penalty for cancellations made 30 days in advance.

How can I book additional nights at hotels after the tour?

You can request to book additional nights depending on availability at your chosen hotel.

Are there any additional costs for private transfers?

Yes, there is an extra fee for private transfers from the cruise to the airport.

Can we still book if we are over 65?

You can certainly undertake this trip given your health. We have had customers over 70 years old before.

Is there anyway that the tour can end slightly earlier on Wednesday July 31st in order to make a flight at 9 PM?

You will come back to Hanoi around 3 - 3.30pm ! If your flight from Hanoi is at 9pm, you will have time to go to the airport. From the city center to the airport, it is about 45mn ! We can also organize with extra a private transfer from Halong directly to the airport if you prefer !

We had a great trip - Christophe answered every question right away and asked in between how everything is. Tick, our guide was very nice, realized the things we are interested in without saying and made the trip really enjoyable for us. Everything was well organized, as described and on time. I would book the tour again. Pu Loung was absolutely awesome, Ninh Bình is astonishing and Halong Bay was even though it was slightly rainy and foggy interesting.Show more

The Pu-long Nim-Binh loop is really interesting and worth the trip. Really magical landscapes and really nice walks in the caves, visiting water wheels and bamboo rafting. Our guide Truong took good care of us, is very attentive, and very available. Nice boat ride in ah long bay and visit the temples by bike. The meals at ecogarden are varied and of quality. The cruise in Ahlong Bay is really fantastic, the boat is really beautiful, and the staff is really very friendly. The meals on the cruise are really on top. Super canoe ride and also nice bike tour. We highly recommend this trip.Show more

I was traveling with 2 members of my family and we decided to choose Eco Travel Go Green. We definitely made a great choice as the tour was very exciting with a large variety of activities ( hiking, bamboo rafting, boat riding, cycling, kayaking, cruising). Those 3 places are just wonderful. Pu Luong is peaceful and natural heaven, Ninh Binh is stunning and Lan Ha Bay is impressive. All accommodations were comfortable with great location, especially Pu Luong Eco Garden with an infinity pool overlooking the mountains. We ended on cruising onboard of Serenity cruise. Everything was perfectShow more

  We are flying out of Hai Phong Airport, which is much closer. Our flight time is 13:10 so we should be able to make that with no problems. Correct?

  After the Lan Ha Bay trip, we will arrange a car to Hai Phong Airport for your family. We have enough time to get there from the bay.
