Full description
Day 1: Hanoi, Hoa Lu, Mua Cave, Tam Coc  Your first day will begin as you are picked up from your hotel in Hanoi's Old Quarter. From here you will travel to Hoa Lu, the country's ancient capital. You will then visit Mua Cave, from where you can also enjoy breathtaking panoramic mountainous views. Following this, you will enjoy a traditional Vietnamese set-menu lunch at a local bungalow. You will later enjoy a sampan boat ride in Tam Coc, passing through the three caves of Hang Ca, Hang Hai, and Hang Ba. Following this cave exploration, you will cycle through the neighboring rice fields and villages. Later in the day you will swim and enjoy a sunset party, complete with tea and fruits. You will then check into your bungalow for the evening, before sitting down to a set-menu dinner and having free time for the evening.

Die Zusammenstellung mit Tempel, Berg und Höhle, Bootsfahrt und Fahrradtour war eine gute Abwechslung zwischen Sehenswürdigkeiten und Bewegung. Der Bungalow war schön, das Essen auf Wunsch vegetarisch und lecker. Leider waren wir mit unserem Guide am ersten Tag absolut nicht zufrieden: er hat 2 Personen bei der Radtour verloren, hat uns auf der Hinfahrt aufdringlich mit für die Tour unwichtigen Informationen überschüttet, hat uns kein Nickerchen machen lassen, war generell aufdringlich und hat uns zu Sachen gedrängt, auch wenn wir sie nicht wollten (gestellte Gruppenfotos z. B.). Der zweite Tag im Nationalpark mit einem anderen Guide (Viet?) war toll. Der Spaziergang durch den Dschungel, die Höhle, sowie die Rescue-Center für Affen und Schildkröten waren spannend. Unser Guide war großartig, hat uns Tee und Kaffee mitgebracht und uns viele spannende Dinge über das Reservat erzählt.

Tour was good, but would have booked something else had the description been more honest! They fail to mention the level of fitness required for this tour, so many stairs everywhere you go and the bike ride was much longer and harder than expected. Did not expect to be riding in actual traffic and to be left behind by the tour guide as I was "too slow" for the group. Bungalow accommodation was nice, but definitely wasn't the right tour for our group. If you are quite fit and confident on a bicycle then you will probably love this tour. For more of an average person perhaps book a different option or prepare for a lot of exercise!
