Even in the most idyllic locations, real life tasks and services such as laundry, haircuts, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, phone repairs, mechanics, jewellers and dressmakers from time become a necessity. As a lively, modern city, Ninh Binh caters for most of these needs but trying to find them sometimes can get frustrating.

A lot of the issues are going to be with finding the right words to locate what you need – Vietnamese is a phonetic language and does not come easily to most foreigners. Even with translators and helpful guides, it is helps to have a clear idea of what you are looking for and a rough location of where you are likely to find it.

This section leaves behind the adventure and scenic beauty of Ninh Binh for a moment to focus on some of the services and people who maybe able to assist you with both the mundane and emergency needs you might encounter.

You should also be aware that many of the services will have Zalo (a Vietnamese social media app), WhatsApp or similar. Not only are they free and allow contact without needing a Vietnamese phone number, the chat functions are easily translated (via a translator app) which can help communication no end.

note: We have no affiliation with any of the services listed below. The list is provided in assistance not as recommendations and we can have no influence on your experience with any individual organisations. English ability will vary between services and staff. Google translator can help but speak slowly and politely and specific to the service you are after.
