Excellent Travel Guide
Ruby was my guide during a 12 hour excursion to Halong Bay from Hanoi. The time flew by and the trip was memorable, in large part due to Ruby.
Her breadth of knowledge of all things Vietnam, rolled in with her impressive language skills and her own international travel provide lots of local insights, interesting conversations and fun along the way.
In the event you're considering hiring a "local" ss a guide, you don't need to look any further than Ngoc Ruby!

Incredible Private Hike
We sincerely enjoyed our private tour with Loan! She coordinated a delicious local lunch for us, and even provided a few unexpected snacks!
Loan was very personable and the conversations while hiking and driving were great.

Fantastic Ruby!
Ruby was fantastic from start to finish.We contacted her last minute and she was able to put together a 3 day program overnight. we were traveling with my 88 year old mother and Ruby was so thoughtful and kept her company while we did some of the more strenuous walking stops. she was able to last minute arrange a speed boat to bring us back early to the harbor at Ha long Bay which cut 2 hrs on the trip. She was very adaptable and conscience of my mother's fatigue levels.I highly recommended her services.
