Spend 11 to 12 hours exploring Ninh Binh from Hanoi by shuttle bus, bicycle, bamboo boat, and on foot. Visit Hoa Lu temples, ride through the countryside, eat a Vietnamese buffet, pass through Trang An grottoes, and climb about 500 steps at Mua Cave. Guides such as Max, Liam, and James have earned strong praise.

“We visited Hoa Lu Ancient Capital, Trang An Ecotourism Complex, Boat ride on Route number 3 - 3 caves (Dot Cave, Van Cave and Dai Cave) and 3 temples (Trinh Temple, Suoi Tien Temple and Vu Lam Royal Steps), and climb up to Mua Cave to see the beautiful view. Our tour guide Jason is very nice, speaking nice english. I think this is the most beautiful place in Vietnam.”

We visited shrines, stopped by arenas, and saw the imperial palace - all while learning a little about the neighborhoods we traversed.”

8.Rottnest Island Ferry and Bike Day Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 805 reviews · 9 hours · from $87

Take a fast Rottnest Express ferry from Fremantle, collect a hired bike and helmet on arrival, then set your own route around Rottnest Island. Ride to beaches, bays, quokka areas, and snorkeling spots before returning by ferry the same day. Food, drinks, and hotel transfers are not included.

“It was easy to redeem my voucher, and the ferry rides were on time. I had a great day biking around Rottnest Island. I’m not a sedentary person, but I definitely overestimated my fitness level thinking I could easily visit all the main spots by bike—there’s more wind and more hills than I expected! Still, I managed to see most of the iconic sights, took plenty of photos with the quokkas, visited the museums, and made it back in time for my return ferry.”

It was great to get into the country side and we loved going at our own pace and stopping wherever we wanted! The views were amazing. The winery was wonderful with some of the best food we had while in Florence! If you like to tour by bike you will love this!!!”
