A Wonderful Day Exploring the Nature and Culture of Hanoi
This tour was a great way to discover a different side of Hanoi beyond the busy streets and popular tourist attractions in the city center. I really liked the idea of combining a visit to Ba Na National Park with a trip to Duong lam Ancient Village because the two places offer very different experiences.
The journey to ba Vi was enjoyable, and traveling by Jeep made the trip feel more adventurous than an ordinary sightseeing tour. The natural scenery was beautiful, with green landscapes, fresh air, and peaceful surroundings that provided a welcome break from the noise of the city. I especially enjoyed having time to appreciate the scenery instead of rushing from one place to another.
Duong LamAncient Village was another highlight. Walking through the village gave me an opportunity to learn more about traditional Vietnamese architecture, local customs, and everyday life in the countryside. The atmosphere felt calm and authentic, and I enjoyed seeing a side of Vietnam that is different from the modern streets of Hanoi.
Overall, this itinerary offers a nice balance between nature, culture, and adventure. I would recommend it to travelers who have already explored central hanoi and want to spend a day discovering the surrounding countryside.

2nd Wedding Anniversary
10/10 experience! My wife and I are visiting Vietnam for our second wedding anniversary. We chose this tour because we wanted to learn more about the history of Vietnam and Hanoi. Justin was an amazing tour guide and gave us one of the best tour we have ever experienced in our world travels. His tour included climbing the steps to the summit of Bavi National Park, touring an old French church remnants, lunch at a local restaurant with amazing food, and walking the grounds of Doung Lam Ancient Village. I strongly recommend having Justin as a tour guide when you visit Vietnam. His tour is extremely informative as well as personal regarding the people of Hanoi.

Peaceful and Informational Tour from Justin
For the fee, you get your moneys worth! Justin went above and beyond with the hike around Ba Vi national park, which is very well maintained and family oriented.
He kindly showed us local cuisine for lunch, and then to the local village where we explored the years old fermented soy bean process and were shown generational homes. This tour is a must go if you are visiting Hanoi, we learned so much!

Very authentic experience
I definitely recommend this tour! You'll spend time in a beautiful national park, climb to local temples, and see an abandoned Catholic church, as well as an old Vietnamese village and rice fields. Our guide, Min, told us a lot of interesting things about Vietnamese life, history, and culture, and took tons of photos for us. We had a lot of fun during this trip. 👍
Advice: take comfortable shoes with you. The road to the temples is not so easy, but it is definitely worth it! 😍

Nice day seeing a different part of Hanoi
We enjoyed our jeep ride up to BaVi National Park. Justin gave lots of good and interesting information on the way and during the entire trip. The views were amazing on the mountain. We enjoyed our local lunch and tour of the village. It was very warm during the afternoon so keep the weather in mind for the jeep.
