    Quiet tour.

    Nice tour. The hike is the highlight. Tuoi as a tour guide was able to tell a lot of interesting things and give insights. Pleasant homestay with good Vietnamese cuisine. And above all, very quiet.

    3 Day Tour to Ba be Lake

    We were on a 3 day trip to Ba be lake. A really good trip with both boat trip, trekking and bike trip out to a cave. We had a really good guide and we got the trip so it suited to our family. It was a really good price. Our homestay was also perfect. They made really delicious food and did everything they could to make us feel comfortable. It was a bit hard beds, but it's taste and pleasure. On the trip we were especially pleased with the bike tour where we cycled around to some villages and to a really fascinating cave. The downside of the trip was the bus ride up there that took place in a local bus. Many throw up because it is very hollow and at a high pace. On the trip home we got through with cookies and Cola:⁠-⁠)

    Response from the operator: Dear Helle, Thank you for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that you had a fantastic experience with us. Our team takes great pride in delivering exceptional service, and we're glad we could exceed your expectations. We look forward to welcoming you back soon! Best regards, Viet

    Great tour to Ba Be Lake

    The tour we liked very much, everything was well organized and worked as described. Viet from Old Quarter Travel was always available via Whatsapp for questions and information. From the homestay we had a great view of Ba Be Lake and the food was very delicious. Our guide Tuoi took very good care of us and our small group for the 3 days, showed a lot and explained we had a great time with him! The trekking day was a bit exhausting due to the muggy weather, but worth every bead of sweat, as it was very exciting to see the jungle “from the inside” and also very beautiful landscapes. And liked it very much!

    Response from the operator: Dear Valued Customer, Thank you very much for your review. I really appreciate you taking the time off to let me know how you feel about my service. I look forward to serving you again in the near future. Thank you again. Regards, Viet

    Amazing Tour

    In short- this trip is amazing! For me, the value of the services provided was outstanding. Fabulous homestay with comfortable rooms, excellent food, and amazing relaxation and sunset spaces. I had an English speaking guide for all activities and all of the excursions were beyond my expectations. Ba Be Lake is so beautiful and has so much to offer I even extended my trip by a night. Viet Old Quarter Travel was consistently available via WhatsApp but was always one step ahead by sending me messages and instructions making all the coordination a breeze. None of this would have been possible without their organization. Thank you so much!

    Response from the operator: Hi Alexandra, Thank you very much for your review. I really appreciate you taking the time off to let me know how you feel about my service. Hope you enjoy Vietnamese coffee when you are back home. I look forward to serving you again in the near future. Thank you again. Regards, Viet

    Ba Be National Park With Boat Trip, Swimming, Trekking & Cycling: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hanoi.

    How much does Ba Be National Park With Boat Trip, Swimming, Trekking & Cycling cost?

    +

    Prices start at $134 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hanoi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Ba Be National Park With Boat Trip, Swimming, Trekking & Cycling take?

    +

    Plan for about 72 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Hanoi is not rushed.

    Is Ba Be National Park With Boat Trip, Swimming, Trekking & Cycling worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 10 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hanoi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Ba Be National Park With Boat Trip, Swimming, Trekking & Cycling?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Ba Be National Park With Boat Trip, Swimming, Trekking & Cycling suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 72-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Ba Be National Park With Boat Trip, Swimming, Trekking & Cycling?

    +

    Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Hanoi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Hanoi and add a light layer if any part of the 72-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Ba Be National Park With Boat Trip, Swimming, Trekking & Cycling start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Hanoi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Hanoi?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Hanoi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Ninh Binh Day Trip from Hanoi with Tam Coc or Trang An & Mua Cave, Ha Giang Loop Tour 4 Days 3 Nights with Ha Giang Vision Tour, Halong Bay Day Tour With Titop Island, Cave, Kayak & Lunch. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Hanoi?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Hanoi?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
