Full description

This is a experience from Hanoi, built around Trang An, Ninh Binh and Tam Coc. It is run by Asian Discovery 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.

Pickup is offered from Tamcoc Tropical Homestay, Trang An, Hoa Lu Ancient Capital, Yen Nhi Hotel Ninh Binh, Mua cave and Hoàn Kiếm; the exact spot and time are agreed with Asian Discovery Travel once the booking is confirmed, and the option you choose sets whether transport is included.

The price covers Pick-up and drop-off at your hotel by A/C private luxury van, Boat trip to visit Trang An and Tam Coc, Sightseeing and entrance fees, tour guide and Vietnamese lunch. It does not cover Beverages, Tet holiday, Personal expenses and Gratuities for guide and driver, 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.

Hotel pickup in Hanoi. Asian Discovery Travel confirms your pickup time and the exact spot once the booking is in. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Asian Discovery Travel before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Incredible day! I booked a private tour to Trang An & Tam Coc, and it was one of the best experience I have had in this trip to Vietnam. Tom was super friendly, chatty and warm guide, attentive to all details, and helping in all situations we got. Thanks to him I have the best last day in Vietnam I could expected. Thanks Tom!

Nous avons visité la Baie d’Ha Long terrestre de la façon la plus complète et agréable possible, en véhicule privé. Nous avons d’abord navigué pendant 1h entre les rizières et les montagnes karstiques du site de Tam Coc, à bord d’un sampan piloté avec les pieds. Puis, Après un bon déjeuner buffet, le site de Tràng an nous a offert 2h d’un décor différent et magnifique (film King Kong Skull island). Après 30 mn de vélo dans la campagne vietnamienne, nous avons rejoint le belvédère de Mui Cave, où nous avons grimpé de nombreuses marches (difficile pour personnes âgées/en mauvaise santé) La récom

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Hotel pickup in Hanoi. Asian Discovery Travel confirms your pickup time and the exact spot once the booking is in. The collection window is usually a little wider than a fixed minute, because the driver is working a route around several hotels.

No, a local rower takes you; Trang An's loop is two to three hours in a sampan through caves and you sit the whole way. A small tip for the rower is customary. Bring a hat and sunscreen, the boats are open, and wear shoes you can cycle in for the paddy-field ride between sights.
We confirm your booking with the operator before we treat it as final, and we need at least one day's notice. Once it is confirmed you get the meeting point, the time and a contact number for the day. If the operator cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.
