Our tour guide Sunny and his driver picked us up punctually at our hotel. The first stop was Quang Phu Cau, the incense village. There, you can observe the entire production process of making bamboo incense sticks at various specialized family businesses. Sunny is very knowledgeable and explained everything to us. Afterwards, we stopped for coffee and then continued on to Mua Caves. At the foot of the mountain, there is a lotus plantation, cafes, and restaurants. Sunny accompanied us up 500 steps to reach the summit with a great view of the valley, the river, rice paddies and Ninh Binh city. We continued on to Tam Coc with a lunch stop at a modern restaurant offering a multi-course menu. With Sunny, we took a sampan boat for a 1 1/2 hour river cruise. We made a stop along the way and Sunny showed us a spot where we could take some very nice photos. Afterwards, we drove back to Hanoi. Sunny was a very pleasant, knowledgeable, English-speaking guide whom we would highly recommend.
