Creator's Key Takeaways

We're only here for three nights in total and we're at the Lolita Hotel which is a boutique hotel.

It's about a 15-minute grab ride from the hotel. Uh so, that was nice and easy.

It's absolutely stunning here. And I guess that's the reason we're not going under any caves today.

I would definitely do both cuz they're different experiences.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Get to the boat tours early to avoid crowds and heat.
βœ“Bring cash for the Tam Coc boat tour as it may not accept credit cards.
βœ“Consider both Trang An and Tam Coc boat tours if time and budget allow.

YouTube Video Description↓

We sneaked in a short stay in Ninh Binh before we head to Halong Bay for a new and different Vietnam experience. Ninh Binh is a interior extension of Halong Bay. Imaging the limestone and Granite formations but without the water. We stay at the Lalita Boutique Hotel. No Hiltons or Hyatt's in this neck of the woods and although it is a little further out it is a short and cheap Grab ride to Tam Coc and the famous boat rides. Although we only had a short time here we managed to get a lot in. We firstly went to Trang An and took a boat ride around the rock formations. The area is flooded so all of the caves and regular routes were closed. But it is truly spectacular. It opens at 6am, but check in with the hotel. We got there at 7.30 and the crowds were building up already and so was the heat. Next we go Tam Coc. This is more touristy, more instagramable and don't forget to tip your guide. And yes, here they row the boats with their feet! This is the place you launch your drone to see the boats snake through the paddy fields and it is truly worth the trip. We then head off for a jeep tour of the area. They said US jeeps but as the US were in the South we found out they were Russian. ITs an interesting tour and good fun. We even had time to get some laundry done and Helen got her nails done. #moanasapa #sapa #fansipan #cityinthefog #hoteldelacoupole #vietnam #vietnamtravel #travel #globalnomadtravel #worldtraveller #worldtravel #slowtravel #digitalnomad #digitalnomadlife #retireearly #retireearlyandtravel #financialindependenceretireearly #digitalnomadlifestyle VIDEO CHAPTERS 00:00 Introduction 00:50 LaLita Boutique Hotel Room Tour. 04:06 The Portable Safe! 04:28 Trang An Scenic Boat Tour 10:10 Review of Trang An 12:36 Tam Coc Scenic Boat Tour 15:00 Review of Tam Coc 17:25 The Ticket Office and Yellow Bus 18:26 Chookies Beer Garden 19:32 Russian Military Jeep Tour 21:06 Review of LaLita Boutique Hotel 21:35 Should you go to Ninh Binh 22:56 Thanks for Watching Our Links Airalo: https://airalo.go.link/3ofAz Wise: https://wise.com/invite/irhc/jamesr1487 Nord VPN: https://refer-nordvpn.com/SYNYUNhtBvN The Credit Cards we use Chase IHG - https://www.referyourchasecard.com/210f/TKV3WX6T1X Chase Sapphire Reserve - https://www.referyourchasecard.com/19q/VBEDZ1CISQ Chase Ink Cash-https://www.referyourchasecard.com/21s/N6TMLHSOZO Chase Ink Preferred-https://www.referyourchasecard.com/21s/ZQ3MXA7I5Y American Express Marriott Bonvoy https://americanexpress.com/en-us/referral/marriott-bonvoy-business-american-express-card?ref=JAMESRvkWi&XL=MIANS Chase freedom Helen-https://www.referyourchasecard.com/18J/5WH3HLPBBJ CHASE SAPPHIRE Helen - https://www.referyourchasecard.com/19q/NC0JNHUYDH CHASE INK HELEN UNLIMITED- https://www.referyourchasecard.com/21s/FRWQQ7W3IE CHASE INK HELEN PREFERRED-https://www.referyourchasecard.com/21s/TV8PBGDBGA CHASE INK HELEN- https://www.referyourchasecard.com/21s/LKK2JZIE2A Our Contact https://www.facebook.com/GlobalNomads93/ https://www.instagram.com/globalnomads93?igsh=emg1ZzkybnJyOXZv Email: globalnomads93@gmail.com
