At approximately 8:30 AM, the guide and driver will come to your hotel in Hanoi Old Quarter to pick you up. Once you're all set, get ready for a delightful 2-hour drive to Perfume Pagoda, where you'll be surrounded by breathtaking scenery. When you arrive, hop on a row boat for a pleasant 1-hour trip along the Yen stream, which will take you to Thien Tru harbor.
Once you reach Thien Tru, you'll have the opportunity to go trekking and explore the main cave. This will lead you to Huong Tich Cave, situated at the peak of the mountain. Afterward, you can either trek back down for an hour or choose the optional cable car ride instead.
After an exciting morning, it's time to refuel with a delicious lunch at a local restaurant located at the base of the mountain. Once you've satisfied your hunger, you'll have the chance to visit the Heaven Kitchen pagoda and learn about the Buddhist architecture of the Le Dynasty. Then, it's time to relax and enjoy the 2-hour road trip back to Hanoi as you board the boat and head towards the pier.
Finally, around 6:00 PM, our tour will come to an end as we drop you off at your hotel. We hope you had a fantastic time exploring the Perfume Pagoda!
