We had a great experience with the "off the beaten track" on a single day, witnessing wonderful scenery in an area that would've otherwise been neglected (we encountered no other tourist in the whole trek). Loved exploring it with San May, she was cheerful, enthusiastic and explained us so much about the area. The food was excellent and the herbal bath was the perfect ending

I had an incredible time doing the loop through Seek Sophie. As someone who had never been in a motorbike before, I was a bit nervous before, but the tour guide Aly made me feel really comfortable and I trusted him fully. It was the best tour I've ever done, going off the tourist route to see local villages, campsite, kayaking, hiking and swimming at the waterfall on our last day. I'm so grateful to Aly and the easy riders for showing us their hometown, having local guides who are clearly proud of their heritage and culture was amazing - so many great stories shared over happy water and tasty food!
Communication with the tour company helped throughout whenever I did have questions on the plan. We were a small group of 3, which made it feel unique (and sometimes meant we could go routes the big tours couldn't). Highly recommend - thank you so much!

Hannah was a wonderful driver, since I was a bit scared to go by motorbike, but she showed me places I would never have seen on my own. I'm so glad I went!

Staying with Thanh was the highlight of my trip. I arrived at 7 a.m., and he kindly allowed me to check in right away. He then arranged a driver to take me to several local sights.
The next day, we joined Thanh for a guided tour, where he led us away from the busy tourist areas and showed us stunning landscapes—hiking in the morning and exploring by bike in the afternoon. He even took me to play badminton, which was a fun and memorable experience.
All the meals prepared by his wife were delicious, and the rooms were beautiful and spotlessly clean. I can wholeheartedly recommend staying here.

I had a great time creating my own knife step by step! The blacksmiths were really helpful and patient while I was learning and doing my best throughout the process! It was also nice to discover a different part far from the center of Hanoi, just make sure you can reach the meeting point on your own or book the pickup service :)
Giorgia
Excellent tour!! The curation of activities and pacing was exactly what our group of 6 was looking for and enjoyed every minute of it! Our tour guide Danny was super informative and made it such a fun, friendly experience that it felt like we were hanging out with a friend. Definitely recommend this tour if you want just a little more than other tours!

Great size of boat, not too big... great activities, Tiger is mad a box of frogs but is a great host, great food for vegetarians (had our own plates cooked for us rather than needing the quite meaty buffet)... yeah was great!
