For guests staying outside the Old Quarter, please arrive at the meeting point at 2 Co Tan Street by 7:30 AM. Your tour guide will meet you there between 7:30 AM and 7:45 AM. From there, enjoy a comfortable 2.5-hour drive to Ninh Binh, with a short rest stop along the way to stretch your legs.
3hArrive at our restaurant in Ninh Binh, then take a bicycle to begin your journey to Hoa Lu. Enjoy a scenic ride through the beautiful countryside and limestone mountains along a unique route. If you don’t know how to ride a bicycle or you are not used to cycling, the driver will take you by bus instead. The bike ride is a short and optional activity for free, and we do not recommend it for those who are not comfortable with cycling.
