3/ By train

There are 5 trains from Hanoi which travels past and stops at Ninh Binh SE1, SE5, SE7, SE9. The train trip is 2 hours 30 minutes. While it is the safest means of transport, traveling by train is not convenient due to the train times and that booking train tickets is not easy.

4/ By motorbike

The road by motorbike from Hanoi to Ninh Binh is Route 1 which is quite a busy road with lots of trucks, bicycles and motorbikes. The road conditions are fairly good though some people ride quite recklessly. The motorbike trip should take 3 hours one-way. Ride cautiously on this route then.

5/ By bicycle

You can travel to Ninh Binh by bicycle but the trip may take the whole day. The road is quite clean nowadays but the experience may not be that nice when it rains and when it is too hot. Traveling in the countryside of Ninh Binh by bicycle is a great experience though. The villages by the rivers and the limestone outcrops amid vast paddy fields are what you would expect biking through this backwater.
