Not only do the Halong Bay, Sapa, Mai Chau… that make Vietnam’s north attractive.
It always exists other off-the-beaten tracks for experienced travelers who typically steer clear of the most famous tourist spots and go further to find unspoiled natural wonders.
Besides Hanoi, they should come to experience the local village, local cuisine, the river road leading to magical caves beneath the karst mountains.
We choose Ninh Binh-Hoa Lu- Tam Coc tour to be one of that unspoiled natural sites without any regret that almost travelers love it.
