Have you seen that river surrounded by rice fields and mountains? Here you will have the chance to see it in real life, we recommend this boat tour as a must-see if you are in the Ninh Binh.

I took this trip to Ninh Binh and Bai Tu Long Bay. The whole trip was well organized and had good food. Hanh Pham did a wonderful job and my trip was awesome. As a solo traveler, it was great as I got to meet a lot of other travelers as well. I definitely recommend Oriental Lotus Travel!
