Our tour from Hanoi to Ninh Binh starts at 6:45 AM. You deserve to have a best day ever by waking up early for 3 following reasons.
- Beating the traffic jam in the city of Hanoi as we have to go through the busy city center to get to Ninh Binh, no better choice! If we leave later around 7:30 AM, it is rush hours, then it waste us 1 hour or even more to get out of the city, and if we start at 6:45, then it takes us maximum 20 minutes.
- Beating the crowd at the tourist sites as we are “early birds catch the worms”, we don’t see many people around us, we can skip the line and don’t have to waste our time for a long queue.
- Beating the heat of the day for our morning hike up to Mua cave for a fantastic fresh panorama view of the area.
Please help us to help you to have a great day just simply by waking up early “early to bed, early to rise make the men wealthy, healthy and wise”
