Beautiful time spent with wonderful people. Our guide Pink was incredibly helpful and sent us an itinerary in advance so we knew exactly what to do and where to be. It was very helpful. We do wish that there would have been free water provided with each meal.

I did the 2-day, 1-night Ha Long Bay tour and had an amazing experience. Our guide, Pink, was truly outstanding, One of the best guides I’ve ever had. She was so funny, incredibly informative, perfectly organized, and brought such a positive energy to the whole trip. You could tell she genuinely cared about everyone having a great time, and she made the experience unforgettable. The activities were a lot of fun, even though some spots were crowded (which makes sense because Ha Long Bay is absolutely worth it). The cruise itself was very comfortable, with cozy beds and nice cabins. The food was

The cruise was great from our pick up until drop off. Our guide, Long, and the cruise ship staff were always helpful and friendly and all the meals offered on board were big quantities and delicious! All activities were organized in detail and there was a lot to do in just 2days time, giving guests a good overview of the location. Our room offered all the amenities you need, even a balcony! I would definitely recommend this trip and I have so many good memories of Halong Bay as it's such a unique part of Vietnam but also thanks to the great organization!

I was slightly hesitant to book this given the cheap price compared to so many other tours, but I’m so glad I did! The boat was comfortable and spacious, the food was great and activities were fun and well organised. The hotel pickup and drop off was also seamless and easy to arrange. Cannot thank Tony and the team enough for the effort they put into making the experience so great.

This was very well organised tour and a nice crew that serves tasty food! Long was a great guide. Make sure if you book a cabin solo that you make it clear to the team and that you are happy to pay the extra fee as indicated in the details of the activity. We had a slight miscommunication with the owner and I did not make it clear so I ended up sharing the room but with a lovely young lady so all ended well.

The price does not cover roundtrip transfer from hanoi to harbor ( usd 25 = 650 000 vnd per person), single supplement of $40 per cabin per night, drinks and gratuities. Everything it does cover is listed in full on this page, so if something is not on that list, budget for it separately.
Overnight cruises sleep on board; day cruises do not. Cabins on the boats we book are private with an ensuite bathroom, and the grade of boat is stated in the option you choose rather than left vague.
