Itinerary

  1. Our tour guide and driver will pick you up at your hotel in Hanoi and travel to Ninh Binh, an ancient land enriched with cultural and geographical wonders, recently recognized as a World Heritage Site. The first stop is the Bai Dinh Pagoda complex, one of the largest pagodas in Vietnam. Set scenically at the foothills of Dinh Mountain, it is surrounded by breathtaking river valleys and dotted with limestone karsts that will leave you in awe. The complex showcases massive and magnificent Vietnamese architecture. After lunch at a local restaurant, depart for the Trang An Grottoes, a UNESCO-listed landscape of grottoes carved into striking limestone monoliths rising dramatically from the rice paddies. Enjoy a 2.5-hour traditional sampan boat ride along the serene river, passing through numerous caves. Return to Hanoi and be dropped off at your hotel.

About Hanoi

Hanoi, Vietnam's capital, mixes lakeside temples, French colonial boulevards and an Old Quarter where street food and scooters fill every lane.

The Old Quarter's narrow streets, each once devoted to a single trade, sit just north of Hoan Kiem Lake, where the red Huc Bridge leads to the Temple of the Jade Mountain. Wander at dawn to see tai chi by the water, or after dark when the pavements fill with food stalls and low plastic stools.

Top-ranked sights in Hanoi: Ha Long Bay, Hanoi Old Quarter, Long Bien Bridge (Cau Long Bien).
