It is our second time visiting Lotte Observation Deck and we tried out new activities during this trip. We were also advised by the staff that the weather is cloudy so we might not get a good view, but I didn’t think that would happen. i appreciate that they did advise us beforehand. Not much tourists during our visit as it was on a Thursday afternoon around 2:00pm so we get to take advantage the entire experience to ourselves!

The tour guide James is very friendly and good at listening, with good organizational and adaptability. We took a one-day tour to Bai Dinh Temple, Chang'an, and Mu'a Cave. Due to the weather on that day, James flexibly arranged different itineraries, which made the entire trip go smoothly. It is worth mentioning that James led us in the rain, so that we did not miss any attractions. This was an unforgettable and happy trip
