Hung was really friendly and knowledgable about the area he took us to. The places were so beautiful. We went to some caves, temples, and even cycled through different areas. The view while we were cycling was spectacular and peaceful at the same time.

" Ich kann diesen deutschsprachigen Ausflug mit Hung ohne Einschrankung bestens empfehlen. Hung spricht sehr gut deutsch, da er bis in seine Jugend in Deutschland aufgewachsen ist und einen deutschsprachigen Vater hat. Er lebt seit ca. 20 Jahren wieder in Vietnam, sodass seine Kenntnisse über diese Region Hoa Lu und die trockene Halong Bucht hervorragend sind. Er konnte uns sehr viel über die Kultur, Sitten und Gebrauche, die Menschen und die Tempelanlagen erzahlen. Seine Art, diesen Auflug zu gestalten, empfanden wir als überaus angenehm. "

I'm very honored to have Loan Copper as my tour guide for 4 days. She did a good job in preparing a travel itinerary. I enjoyed the beautiful scenery and took many beautiful photos. The first 2 days, we were at Mua Cave and Tam Coc river enjoying the magnificent landscape and caves. The 3rd day we were at Halong Bay, cruising and visiting Thien Cung & Sung Sot caves. She also brought me to eat local delicious noodles, seafood and sprinf rolls. I also able to taste local fruits (lychee, peach, prunes and baby guava). I'm pleased with her service; she is attentive to meet our travel in Hanoi. I would engage her again when I travel to Hanoi.
