Touristennepp - völlig überteuert. Wir saßen auf einem großen Boot mit gerade mal 10 anderen Leute. Deshalb gab es kein Buffet sondern alles auf einzelnen Tellern. Man musste also Essen, was uns serviert wurde. Die Touren macht man mit hunderten von anderen Touristen. Im Gänsemarsch läuft man durch die Höhle und der 45 min-Besuch der Badeinsel teilt man sich auch mit viiiiielen anderen Badegästen. Das Wasser ist leider auch nicht klar aber bei diesen vielen Booten wird wahrscheinlich auch viel Dreck aufgewühlt. Wirklich schade, weil die Halong Bay sicherlich diesen Massentourismus nicht verdie
