Disasterous lack of care in part of tour itinerary

Excellent itinerary but... on transfer to bamboo boat, operator failed to support the hand of my wife and she fell and tore her quadriceps tendon. She had to be evacuated to the Halong Vinmec hospital ER and was in hospital there and in Hanoi for 3 weeks. She was not medically stable enough to fly to the US until 6 weeks afterward. She will take a year at least to even partially recover. This was entirely due to the operator this tour was using. It destroyed the second half of our world cruise and caused immense pain and suffering. Partial recovery is painful and long.

Operator response

Dear Steve, Thank you for sharing your experience. We are deeply sorry to hear about your wife's injury and the difficult recovery she continues to face. We understand how devastating this incident has been, especially as it impacted the remainder of your world cruise and caused significant pain and hardship. Guest safety is extremely important to us, and we have shared your feedback with the operator involved for a thorough review of their assistance and safety procedures. We sincerely wish your wife a smooth and successful recovery, and we appreciate you bringing this matter to our attention. Kind regards, Viet Old Quarter Travel

Tourist from south india badly behaved.

A good tour that covers key sites on Ha Long Bay in an afternoon. Nice lunch on the cruise out there but staff might be better advised asking table by table to go up to the buffet rather than allowing a free for all! Cruise boat was quite comfortable. Spectacular views of the limestone islands and islets once you escape the haziness of the port area. The stair climb up to the top of Titop island is strenuous but worth it for the views.

Operator response

Dear Gareth, Thanks for the great review! It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed the lunch and the spectacular scenery. We’ve noted your suggestion about the buffet flow to make things even smoother for future guests. Safe travels! Regards, Viet Old Quarter Travel

Well worth it!

The ship is good, staff super friendly, meal excellent, combo of stops for kayak / boat, cave walk and view climb ending off with sunset 'party' great DJ EDM was so much fun. Best money I spent in Vietnam. Don't bring plastic water bottles. They will be confiscated. Be prepared to say no to hard sell on pearls and drinks. They bill the latter at the end and can be more than the whole cruise.

Operator response

Dear Christine, Thank you for the amazing review! We are so glad you enjoyed the ship, our staff, the meals, and the sunset party. We also appreciate your feedback on the plastic bottle policy (a local environmental rule) and the sales approach for drinks and pearls. We've noted this to improve our guest experience. Thank you for joining us! Regards, Viet Old Quarter Travel

Ha Long Excellence

It’s a very full - half day cruise with lots of brilliant aspects. Wear sturdy shoes for the cave / climb. The caves are stunning, as is the climb to the summit of Ti Top the views are brilliant. And the sunset disco on the way back was awesome. (And happy hour was a bonus). Great value for money and superb staff.

Operator response

Dear Ian, Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the views from Ti Top and the sunset disco. Your tip about sturdy shoes is very helpful for future guests. We hope to welcome you back soon! Regards, Viet Old Quarter Travel
