Okay in Halong Bay

Food was great, far too much of it, no drinks included, dissapointed that tour guide had little time for small group, bamboo boat was great, kayaks looked like fun too, would recommend for budget conscious,

Absolutely Amazing Cruise!!!

The starlight cruise overnight was incredible. Alex our tour guide was absolutely amazing and was super knowledgeable of the Ha Long Bay area. He answered all of our questions and was super friendly and patient. We were also incredibly well fed and they accommodated our groups dietary needs.

Amazing Ha Long

We had a great time! The staff was incredibly helpful in arranging and managing our transfers, as well as the cruise and excursions. The entire ship was clean and well-equipped, and the food was divine and plentiful, all in an unparalleled natural setting. Our favorite activity was the cooking school, where we made spring rolls. (I also loved the morning tai chi, even though there were only two of us with the instructor!) I highly recommend it to everyone!
