We had an amazing time with family, meals on board the boat very hearty and organization at the top. We were lucky to have a clear sky with a great sun, the bay is beautiful.

It’s great that you enjoyed the meal, the organization, and especially the beautiful weather. We hope to welcome you back again for another memorable trip! Best Regards Kevin (Mr)
The steps going down to the boat & back up were intimidating, but the guides helped us maneuver them. Otherwise the tour was great! The food was really good & there was such a variety & so much of it. Our guide was knowledgeable & the short trip on the bamboo boat & the visit to the cave was interesting. We didn’t feel comfortable doing the cave, but waiting on the boat was a nice relaxing time in the sun.

Everything worked out marvellously! Kevin was great as the front man contact via WhatsApp. He had things organized to the last detail and was quickly responsive to all messages and inquiries sent. The taxi pick up was well communicated and executed. The Ha Long Bay boat cruise was more enjoyable than anticipated. The four hours were well spent in seeing unique and interesting features. Our cab driver was there as planned to pick us up and return us to the ship. A very pleasant fellow who was genuinely concerned about ensuring his performance was as expected and that we had a good day. All in all a highlight for our cruise recollections.

Delightful trip in beautiful HaLong Bay on junk boat, which included a Vietnamese lunch. Junk Boat was clean, tour guide gave history and helps to get the most out of tour. A woman guide vowed us 4 persons on bamboo boat ride from traditional fishing village. Our tour guide also guided our hike thru awesome cave, and return to marina.

We booked this as a cruise excursion and had the best time! The driver picked us up from the cruise port and took us directly to the marina where our boat was. We had a great time cruising Halong Bay! Bring cash for drinks on the boat and for tips! We met another couple from the same cruise ship as us on this excursion and they were able to share the car back with us to the port. It was very nice of them! I highly recommend this tour!
