This trip was absolutely incredible and so totally worth the price! We had the chance of seeing so many incredible things. I personally loved the Bái Ðính Temple and the caves. The Lying Dragon Mountain was definitely quite the hike, so make sure you are wearing comfortable shoes and clothes as the steps can get quite steep. A massive thank you goes to our guide Tony who patiently talked us through the beauties that the Ninh Bình province has to offer!
