Stunning Landscape in Ninh Binh, Van Long & Mai Chau 4 days

Enjoy a 2 hour drive to Ninh Binh province. It is a spectacular landscape of limestone karts peaks permeated with valleys, some of which are submerged, and surrounded by vertical cliffs. On arrival, hop on your bike for a leisurely 4-km cycling around the winding paved road to enjoy the peaceful Northern countryside. Along the way you might see cows or buffalos working on rice fields with farmers or relaxing under the shade. Stop at a farm where you can join in some agriculture activities such as gardening, collecting eggs, picking up grass and helping the family prepare food for their guests. Enjoy lunch in rustic yet cozy setting and in the afternoon, transfer to Van Long - the largest natural reserve of wetlands. It is also home to 32 stunning grottos named after their different shapes. In the dry season, Van Long is the wintering place of migratory birds from the North. Later sit on a small row boat and float through the picturesque scenery with spectacular mountain ranges.
