The guide, Jack, has been lovely and kind all the time.
We had an incredible experience! The staff on the boat were amazing and provided us with excellent service throughout the whole trip. A special mention to Charlie, who was so funny, friendly and attentive to us — he really made the experience even better! We really enjoyed all the activities, and the food was absolutely delicious. Everything was very well organized, and we had such a great time. We would 100% recommend this cruise! It was an unforgettable experience. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Everything was great. The activities with Tony were really amazing, and he was very nice too. The big boat was luxurious — we felt like snobs at times 😀😀😀 … we were very satisfied. 100%%%%%%
A very nice trip to see the beautiful surroundings of Cat Ba. We did lots of activities so you won’t get bored, but also we got freedom to fill our time different if we felt like it. Unfortunately we got delayed due to our long drive from Cao Bang to Cat Ba. We couldn’t make it in time at 8am. The help we got was very good. They made sure we didn’t miss anything and got us on a different boat very fast. Great service, thank you for this experience!

Un crucero de pocas personas , barco bonito y muy limpio ! El guia muy atento yamable. La comida tambien muy abundante y buena. Muy recomendable para huir de cruceros abarrotados de gente! Ls actividades tambien muy divertidas
We really enjoyed our cruise. Everything was well organised and we had plenty of time for each activity. The food was plentiful and tasty. The chefs made a special effort to cater to some of the dietry needs of other passengers. Our guide Tom made a great job of entertaining and caring for everyone. Even though it was action packed we still had time to chill out and enjoy the scenery. I would highly recommend this cruise.
