Long before Hanoi, Vietnam was ruled from a valley ringed by limestone hills. At Hoa Lu, the 10th-century capital of the Dinh and Le dynasties, the temples of the two kings still stand quietly among the rocks.
Then the landscape takes over. At Tam Coc – the 'Ha Long Bay on land' – the Ngo Dong River winds through three caves, between rice fields and sheer cliffs.
Your guide is with you all day, lunch is a premium buffet at Trang An Eco Restaurant, and sport bicycles are there for a ride through the countryside.
