Day 1: Trang An, Vietnam

Meet the guide at your hotel after breakfast and head towards Trang An, a scenic area near Ninh Binh, where you will take a cruise up a river that winds its way through karst mountains surrounded by rice fields. Trang An is also dubbed ‘Inland Ha Long Bay’ since much of the topography is a landscape of soaring karst mountains, which some consider to be even more spectacular than Ha Long Bay itself. Lunch will take place in a local restaurant and in the afternoon, you will start a bike ride to Hoa Lu, the former capital of Vietnam in the 10th and 11th centuries when Vietnam was under the Dinh and Le dynasties. Before returning to Hanoi, you will explore some of the monuments dedicated to several emperors living during these dynasties. You will arrive in Hanoi in the late afternoon in time to enjoy the rest of the evening at leisure.

This was my first experience with Adventure Life - and I couldn't have been more pleased with the trip. The guides and local staff in both Buenos Aires and Uruguay were terrific - extremely helpful and accommodating. I really enjoyed meeting the friendly staff in Buenos Aires in person (I left my bags with them for the afternoon).
