Biking through rice fields and limestone hills in Tam Coc.
Biking through rice fields and limestone hills in Tam Coc is a peaceful and scenic journey into Vietnam’s countryside charm. As you pedal along quiet village paths, endless green (or golden, in harvest season) rice fields stretch out beneath towering limestone mountains. The fresh air, the gentle rustle of the wind, and the slow rhythm of rural life create a sense of calm and connection with nature.
It's a simple yet unforgettable way to experience the beauty of Tam Coc — authentic, serene, and full of local character.
Time for lunch.
Enjoy a delicious lunch at a local Ninh Binh restaurant. Paired with fresh, crisp countryside vegetables and traditional rustic dishes, this meal offers an authentic taste of rural Vietnam, simple yet unforgettable.
Peaceful Boat Ride in Ngo Dong river, Tam Coc
A peaceful boat ride along the Ngo Dong River in Tam Coc is like gliding through a living painting. Surrounded by towering limestone mountains and golden rice fields (in season), the calm waters reflect the serene beauty of the landscape. As your small wooden boat gently weaves through three natural caves, the only sounds are the splash of paddles and the soft whispers of nature.
It's a tranquil, breathtaking experience — a perfect escape into the heart of Vietnam’s countryside charm.
Get back in the car and drive back to Hanoi.
