Traveler Reviews
One of the best tours I’ve ever done! Ha Long Bay was absolutely stunning. The cruise staff were fantastic and our guide was calm and friendly. Everything was smooth and truly unforgettable, highly recommend!
the planning and communication was great before and during the tour. if you have an allergy though make sure you repeat yourself many, many MANY times. I ended up with a scoop of rice and a share plate with cabbage as my lunch because they forgot about my allergies. bring your togs and make sure you have a go at the kayaks. we had an absolute blast.
It was super fun and not rushed at all. We were able to see everything and enjoyed the nice day out at Ha Long Bay’
It was awesome! Our guide Melody was fantastic. She was funny and well organized. We really enjoyed our day thanks to her!! Thank you so much Melody
Great value does everything you want it to. Worth booking :)
I was looking for a cruise that would also offer vegan food and they easily accommodated my request. The vegan buffet was really delicious and a great way to start the cruise! I feel like I got to see all the sights I wanted to around Ha Long Bay and the drinks on board were also reasonably priced as well
We enjoyed our tour with Alan, our group’s tour guide. He had great communication leading up to and throughout the tour. We waited for a day to book this tour when the sun and blue skies would hopefully peak out and we finally got a small break from the clouds of northern Vietnam towards the late afternoon. Many of the boats dock at the same time at each point so the hike, kayaking, and cave walk were very crowded. However, it was a relaxing ride back to shore and we really felt like this was a great value.
we absolutely loved this and would highly recommend. the service was fantastic both on and off of the boat with great communication and lovely staff. our guide was also great with good knowledge on the islands and cave we visited making it a insightful experience. overall it was great value for money with a comfortable boat and bus and a great selection of activities. would definitely book again!!
The trip was amazing! The team reached out to me the day before with detailed program and info! Our guide was really nice giving us a lot of history details! the activities were very nice! And the scenery is unique! Totally recommended!
amazing view. the guide was very helpful and informative.
Fantastic tour, excellent value for money as you have a full day ahead of you. Wonderful, engaging your guide and efficient driver. Beautiful scenery, don’t miss this one!
Extremely well organized trip! Very delicious lunch on boat cruise with authentic food (vegan, vegetarian friendly). Had the option of hiking or swimming as well as kayaking or a boat ride. The view from the hike was beautiful and unreal. The boat ride was very peaceful. We also got to hike through some caves. We ended the day with some light snacks, drinks and a sunset boat ride which was very serene. For a 12 hour day with 6 hours of travel, this trip was very packed, efficient, fun, and worth your money.
