Since it would be difficult to get there on my own, I joined a tour. The weather was great, and although we were given two bottles of water, I think it's better to bring your own or buy some. After learning about the history of Hoa Lu and exploring the ruins, we had a buffet meal where we could eat whatever we liked. There was a decent variety, which was nice. The cycling was hot, but I'm glad I participated. In the afternoon, we went rafting down the river for about an hour and then climbed to the top of Mua Cave. The stairs in Mua Cave were really steep, but the view was great.
Very good trip with great service and also communication :). Ran smoothly and amazing value for money ! Minh Caro was very informative and also organised :)
Our enthusiastic tour guide, Son, contacted us the day before. Because of traffic restrictions in the old town that prevented large vehicles from entering, Son specially came to pick us up from the hotel and explained today's itinerary in detail. He also spoke some Chinese that my parents could understand in a very friendly manner. Today's experience was fantastic and I would highly recommend it to everyone.
