The $43 tour includes Hanoi pickup, lunch, entrance fees, water, and an English-speaking guide. Guides such as Liam, Max, James, and Tim have earned strong praise for their energy and care.

“I'm very torn on how to write this review... Our guide was great- good English, very energetic. Van was comfortable. Temple stop was nice, good information by our guide. I think we stayed too long though. Everyone was just standing around and we could have gotten on the road to the next stop. The cycling was only ok. Very old bikes and not really much to see on the route, especially when trying to dodge potholes. It was extremely hot but that is not the fault of the company. Lunch was not good. Not only was the food sub par but I also found something in one of the dishes…”

Guides such as Tony, Kai, Ricky, and B are praised for clear English and good care. Kayaking may be replaced by a local bamboo boat due to current restrictions.

“Fantastic value for money. A full day with a great guide who spoke good English and kept us informed. Well paced. Did plenty of activities and swam and had a nice lunch. The lunch only had one seafood item - I was hoping for a few things given they advertise a seafood lunch. Also the do state it on the booking in the fine print they don’t do kayaking. They’ve replaced it with a bamboo boat ride which is nice but kayaking was what caught my eye. I’m not sure why they don’t do it as other people are kayaking around with tours. They should at least take it out…”
