In the northern provinces of Vietnam, Ninh Binh stands out like a verdant green beacon, drawing visitors from near and far. This Hang Mua Peak Tam Coc One Day Tour reveals the beauty of the province from two different angles; one in the mountaintops and one from ground level.
Hang Mua Peak stands high above Ninh Binh’s rolling greenery, providing the apex of a climb up a stone staircase offering fantastic views all the way. From its apex, climbers can see Tam Coc stretching out in front, delivering natural splendor in the form of limestone mountains, evocative caves, and plateaus of lush rice paddies.
The Hang Mua Peak Tam Coc One Day Tour is a service between the capital and its luxuriant neighboring province. Vietnam Escape Tours provide everything necessary for a beautiful and intimate highlight of Ninh Binh, run by a company with excellent reviews on TripAdvisor reviews as its backing.
Being one of the hottest day tours from Hanoi, the tour to Hang Mua and Tam Coc will bring you the best experience for feeling the local life and nature in North Vietnam.
Activities: Climb Hang Mua Peak before having lunch and taking a tour of Tam Coc through a boat trip and cycle ride.
8.00 am: To start the Hang Mua and Tam Coc day tour from Hanoi, we begin at your hotel in the Old Quarter. Our guide will collect you here and take you southwards to beautiful Ninh Binh Province.
10:30 am: We will arrive first at the foothills of Hang Mua Peak, also known by the name of ‘Lying Dragon Mountain’. Begin your trek to the top, climbing the evocative stone staircase and looking out for verdant views of Ninh Binh on the way to the peak. Once we reach the top, we will spend a while taking pictures and admiring the stunning view, where we see incredible beauty splashed across mountains, rice paddies and the winding river carving out the two halves.
12:00 pm: We make our way to a local restaurant after this, where we will be treated to lunch comprising Ninh Binh and north Vietnamese specialties.
1:00 pm: The second part of the Hang Mua and Tam Coc day tour of Ninh Binh begins after lunch with a trip to the center of Tam Coc. Here, we find the head of the Ngo Dong River, where locals will be waiting with sampan boats. We jump into one and head out onto the water, winding our way down the river and between the karstic cliffs and rice paddies on either side. We pass underneath caves carved naturally into the mountains and keep an eye out for goats who cling to the forested hillsides.
3:00 pm: Once we have completed the river loop, we arrive back at the center of Tam Coc, where we climb onto bicycles and explore the rest of the village via its quaint cycling paths. Our route leads us in between vast mountains and lush green or golden rice paddies carpeting the floor, with examples of an attractive rural farming life speckled amidst the scenes.
4:00 pm: We return to Tam Coc’s center again, this time in order to board the bus back to Hanoi. A gorgeous sunset will accompany us en route as we skirt the rice paddies fanning out from the side of the highway.
Around 6:00 pm, we arrive back in the Hanoi Old Quarter of Hanoi and drop you off at your hotel, which is where the Tam Coc and Hang Mua day trip will finish. Thank you for your time and Vietnam Escape Tours wishes you all the best!
