We had a great day. Everything was well organised and ran seamlessly.
My wife and I absolutely loved our one day cruise to Lan Ha Bay with Serenity. The boat was clean, spacious and very comfortable. The food at lunch was delicious, with a lot of variety, good options for all diets, and very fresh. The staff were wonderful. Very friendly, informative and kept the cruise fun. The cruise had a good mix of active and relax time, meaning we never felt rushed and could enjoy the experience and the beauty of the bay without feeling like we were being taken from one place to the next. A perfect day out.
Amazing service, amazing trip! Great food, great amenities!
Excellent service, really sweet staff and great guide throughout the journey, Ask for Bihn for a great experience.
Overall, brilliant day out. Unfortunately my partner ended the trip badly with food poisoning due to a piece of fish he ate. Other than that, it was well organised, staff were attentive, couldn't do enough for you. Everything went like clockwork. Big thank you to you all!!
This was an incredible experience, so so much fun! Couldn’t recommend it more! The food was very good and the service was great! It felt luxurious and very relaxing. Billy was very kind and enthusiastic. Very much recommend.
Our guide Binh was so good, he made the whole experience top notch. If you are planning for cat ba & long ha, make sure to book with serenity cruises. You’ll have a luxury experience. Again thanks to Binh for a commendable experience. Very happy.
