Details
The Perfume Pagoda is actually a group of temples and caves in the rocks of the limestone mountain Huong Tich Son (Mount of Fragrances). The pagoda is located in Hoa Binh province, in My Duc district, 60 km southwest of Hanoi. Most of the cave temples were built in the 17th century. It is considered as one of the most important complexes of temples in Vietnam.The first temple is believed to have been built here in the 15th century, although legend states that the site was actually discovered more than 2,000 years ago by a Buddhist monk who meditated nearby. The foothills of the mountains are an area of great natural and spiritual beauty filled with streams, tropical plants and temples.There are many pagodas to visit, each with a different shrine, most of which are Buddhist, although one or two are animist. The perfume pagoda attracts pilgrims and tourists seeking happiness from the stalagmites and stalactites in the cave who are named based on the individual blessing they can bestow.

Amazing two day trip. This trip is highly recommended. The first day was spent kayaking around the bay with a spring roll cooking session and some karaoke in the evening. Day two included a picturesque bike ride to a local village. The room was comfortable and the food was exceptional. Tee was a brilliant tourguide who spoke perfect English and was very funny. Very good value for money considering how expensive some Halong Bay tours can be.

Tee tourguide. Sunlight cruise. Our tour guides Nemo and T were amazing! They were so helpful and very kind. They made sure we were comfortable and having loads of fun. During our boat trip we went kayaking, swimming, had a cooking class, and danced at night in the moonlight!

Hello, last week I went on the 2 day 1 night tour from cat ba to lan ha bay. The pictures of the cruise we were shown before buying the tickets were very different from the boat itself. Our room was dirty, the bathroom was used (the toilet wasn’t flushed) and there was a water leak so the floor was all wet. The cabin walls were broken, the air conditioning had spider webs on it and the cabin door didn’t close well, it opened up in the middle of the night. The bed sheets were dirty and had cigarette Holes on them. Also, the guide was very sweet but didn’t speak very good English, so it was hard to understand. We were supposed to have kayak and swimming at the beach, that’s what the schedule said, but they made us choose between the two activities. Finally, the shuttle bus had no WiFi signal. The landscape was beautiful but the cruise has been a disappointment. I sent an email on Saturday to the address you give whenever you get a bad review on trip advisor, I even attached pictures, but I had no response, so I’m forced to write this here.

Really good tour, thoroughly enjoyed all the itinerary. Kayaking, Cycling, Cooking as well as Squid Fishing and Karaoke in the evening. The crew have the voices of angels haha! Not to mention the food was incredible, loads of variety dishes, never left feeling hungry throughout. The rooms were quite spacious and had decent hot showers. Our tour guide Hai(sorry if wrong) was very informative and always helped when needed. He was with us all every step of the way :)
