Full description

This is a 9-hour experience in Hanoi. It is run by NINH BINH FOOTPRINT TRAVEL, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

A private day with a driver-guide is the way to see the most of a Japanese city or region in one day, because it removes the transfers between sights that eat a third of the day on public transport. Prices are usually per vehicle for up to a set number of guests rather than per person, and cover the car, fuel, tolls and the guide; entrance fees and lunch are paid as you go unless the listing says otherwise. Japanese guides are licensed for the work and typically punctual to the minute. Give the operator your priorities, and expect them to reorder the day around opening hours and crowds; that is what you are paying for.

The price covers Hotel pick up & drop off, Luxury Minivan with AC, Tourguide, Bottle of water and Visit to Endangered Primate Rescue Center. It does not cover Personal expenses, Lunch at local restaurant inside the park with order or, The entrance ticket package for Cúc Phương National Park and Tour guide will help you to get the ticket and rerserve for, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

Hoa Lư. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with NINH BINH FOOTPRINT TRAVEL before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

What a funny, instructive and awesome day! My partner and I will forever remember this excursion with Viet, our knowledgeable and super friendly guide, and the people we met. We couldn’t be happier, really. Transportation was smooth, we got loads of explanation in the monkey sanctuary, and in the cave. Lunch was really good and the hike was a great adventure to finish the day! Go ahead and book this tour, but also also remember the importance of wearing long pants and long sleeves to protect yourself from the leeches and mosquitoes.

Really nice experience. Interesting to see the primate rescue center and learn about their work to save and protect endangered animals. Our guide Danny did a great job to ensure a great experience for all in our group.

On the whole, it was a good day. The visit to the Monkey sanctuary was very informative and it was great to hear how the centre rescues and rehabilitates the Gibbons before releasing them back into the wild. The jungle covers a huge area and it is also a sanctuary for the released Gibbons. During our jungle walk, we could hear them unfortunately we couldn’t see them living out in the wild, but that is also a good sign that they have adapted to their wild environment after being in the sanctuary. We enjoyed the walk through the jungle, although advertised as 3 km, it is actually only a mile lon

We had a wonderful experience on this tour, largely thanks to our guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable and shared so many fascinating stories and facts throughout the whole trip – you could tell he was truly passionate about what he does. We left feeling like we’d learned so much more than we expected. Would 100% recommend booking a tour with Huyen!

Tha activity was great. Our guide, Viet, was very pleasant and knowledgeable. He gave us a lot information about the nature, the protection of the nature, how to react with animals but also about history of Vietnam. We could see that he loved his job and the nature. The hike in the jungle was entertaining and beautiful.

Great tour to Cuc Phuong. It was well paced, spending a good amount of time at each site and not feeling rushed. Our guide, Viet, was excellent and really made the tour. He was very knowledgeable about the Primate Rescue centre and the various species, the history of the ancient cave and the forest, and shared a host of other interesting tidbits throughout.

Besonderen Dank an unseren Guide Viet der uns bestens informiert hat und auch für gute Laune gesorgt hat während wir uns über den Blutegel verseuchten Pfad zum 1000 jährigen Baum gekämpft haben.

Misleading pricing ruined an otherwise enjoyable tour. The tour cost $21, but upon arriving at Cuc Phuong National Park, the guide collected an additional 300,000 VND per person. The official park website lists the entrance fee as only 60,000 VND, yet no explanation or breakdown was provided for the extra charges. This isn’t about the money—it’s about honesty and transparency. I felt misled. I know this company doesn’t represent all Vietnamese businesses, but I recommend future travelers confirm all extra fees before booking.

ich war mit der kompletten Tour super zufrieden, Viet unser Guide war unglaublich bemüht und alle unsere Fragen gerne beantwortet, egal zu welchem Thema. Er immer super freundlich und aufmerksam, auch als sich ein Teilnehmer der Gruppe verletzt hat, war er sofort zur Stelle. Er weiß unglaublich viel und gutes Englisch. Essen war auch tiptop. Die Wanderung war super machbar, aber nicht unbedingt für jemanden geeignet, welcher schlecht zu Fuß ist. Es muss schon etwas über die Wurzeln geklettert werden 😅
