DELUXE Halong Cruise 1 Day Tour From Hanoi - Daily Operated

Great day out good value for money .bus comfortable and roomy.guide good english but spot to fast.boat good lunch good but rude pushy other quests marred our experience. Bamboo boat ride good but waterway through caves overcrowded and dangerous multiple lift vest broken unsafe for use.beautiful scenery.caves great but yet again packed like sardines with multiple boats all morning at same time.all in all great day out and value for money.

We had a long list of demands from the type of boat to the food supplied. They fulfilled all our demands perfectly and created an extremely memorable day

Our tour guide was great and we enjoyed all the sights we saw in Halong Bay. But nothing about this experience felt "deluxe" and there were many issues. The food and boat were unremarkable, much less nice than what we saw in the pictures on this site. There was also no air conditioning on the boat, which was especially problematic when we had to wait 45 minutes for a lost couple and the crew wouldn't let us go up top where the air was more open. But the worst part was the bus ride, which had the opposite problem: it was way too cold and the seats were very uncomfortable. And there were extra charges for everything (towels, water, even a rinse after swimming). I wouldn't go so far as to recommend against doing this tour, but you should have realistic expectations about what you are getting for your money.

Pros: Fun staff English friendly Overall good places we visited Cons Not up the expectations from pictures provided Food was very basic and not representative of Vietnamese cuisine Pit stop had a pearl shop catered to tourists purchasing pearls, not for everyone. To expand on this review I would've liked more interactions with the tour guide discussing more about the history of some of the islands and experiences that were had on the trip. Overall not bad but definitely left a funny feeling given that the pictures were vastly different than the cruise itself.

There was nothing luxurious about this tour.Took us in a junkyard board claiming its luxurious. The food was very very limited felt like having snacks. 40 minutes at tea top island, 40 minutes in some stupid cave and 25 minutes kayaking. That is the whole trip. The guide Mr Dave ( What he called himself ) was a racist man. Was only talking nicely to White people but was extremely rude with me and my friends since we are brown. I really don’t know if this is the meaning of luxury then what can you expect from a cheap tour?

We were a group of 9 adults (friends/family). We truly enjoyed our tour with Jade Cruise even if we had some fog and rain during the day. The ship is modern, government inspected and clean. The lunch was excellent and we all enjoyed learning how to make spring rolls using safe food practices (disposable gloves were provided). When they served us the cooked rolls we made as a snack, you could see that not all passengers would be successful as chefs, myself included. The other activities were also fun including the kayaking. Finally, we also learned a lot from the ship onboard guide. Thanks to the ship staff and Jadesails for making our 2020 Valentine Day memorable.

They should get our 5 star but the private pickup (really expensive) was done with an unfriendly driver, old shabby car. At one point the driver stopped for toilets and drove away without giving any additional instruction. We found the car parked somewhere, locked with our coats inside. It was very cold and windy. We went to a building next to the toilets where they told us that the driver went to drink coffee somewhere... We do recommend the cruise, great boat, nice guide and staff, tasty food but better use their bus transportation than pay extra for a lousy experience.

A beautiful boat with super friendly and nice crew will take you to the most beautiful places of Halong Bay. Beautiful sun loungers and other furniture that are comfortable at least. A plentiful delicious lunch, more snacks on the way back and happy hour for the drinks, which are very reasonably priced anyway. The activities are also great, with a rowboat through a cave to a lagoon, canoeing and / or swimming, learning to make springrolls. Highly recommended, and transport to and from the port from your hotel they also arrange for you, perfectly done.

Very good . Cruise, food experience fantastic. They always care. Love the cooking class. I will recommend that cruise anytime.

Luxury limousine Service that picks us up from the hotel around 7am. The limousine is comfortable with water bottles, internet and USB sockets to charge, The boat is luxurious, on two floors and it is very clean, even the toilet, 6-course lunch excellent, the wine is surplus but of good quality for Vietnam. The landscape is breathtaking. Visit of caves by safe boat. Light buffet at the end of the day with happy hours. To do absolutely, one day is enough, there is no need to do a 3 day cruise with cabin. ,
