We really enjoyed the boat ride to spot the endangered monkeys and cycling tour to interact with the locals. Not to mention the company of a really cute dog named Bin in the residence.

The staff at NBFH made the booking experience easy and a simple, but beautiful way to see Ninh Binh. The transportation was top-notch and the staff made it easy to fall in love with Vietnam. High recommended.

Beautiful location and nice rooms. Food was disappointing as I was as expecting this to be a highlight of the stay. The organized activities were good but some of them were unexpectedly with guides other than Thanh, whose English was difficult to understand.

Thanh was amazing! So helpful, so knowledgeable and he definitely went above and beyond to show us the best places in Ninh Binh. We also really enjoyed all the meals we had with him, both cooked for us at the homestay and ordered for us at restaurants - by far the best experience we’ve had in Vietnam so far!

We have been absolutely delighted with our stay at Thanh’s home stay. The room was brilliant, staff brilliantly friendly and helpful and the pool was fantastic. Thanh and his team attended to our needs (transfers/late check ins/dinners/laundry etc), tailored our trip to suit our family and booked us onto an addition evening tour to see the Pagoda - definitely not to be missed. We were lucky enough to see the Delacour Langurs in the wild - an unexpected treat. Our girls loved the dog Binh as well 🐶. 
 We would wholeheartedly recommend this trip to anyone, and would have loved to have stayed longer.

Our guide Tuna took us on a magical trip through Ninh Binh, including temple visits, a hike up Lightning Dragon mountain, a vespa tour through the countryside, lunch at a scenic restaurant and a boat ride through the cave systems of Ngo Dong river. We could not have asked for a more perfect day, and Tuna facilitated this for us with enthusiasm, seemingly endless local and folkloric knowledge, and always a can-do attitude. And with plenty of opportunities for hydration! You’d be absolutely remiss to not book a tour with him: when I say it was the highlight of our trip, I truly mean it. Thank you Tuna!!
