Ninh Binh – often called “Inland Halong Bay” – is the perfect destination for women traveling alone in Vietnam. Dramatic limestone peaks, emerald rice fields, ancient temples, tranquil boat rides, and peaceful countryside create a serene yet adventurous atmosphere. More importantly, Ninh Binh consistently ranks as one of the safest and most welcoming provinces in Vietnam for solo female travelers.

Legend Travel Group has been running dedicated small-group tours (maximum 12 guests) here for years, specifically crafted for solo women who want authentic experiences without compromising safety or comfort. You’ll travel with like-minded female travelers, stay in hand-picked boutique hotels, and enjoy 24/7 support from our experienced female tour leaders.
