A dream ♥️

Amazing expérience, a must do!!! We loved everything, the kayaking, the food, Lan Ha bay is an absolute dream!! And our guide Tom was for sure the best guide we had in the three weeks we spent in Vietnam!!! Good fun, good English speaker, he even speaks French. We also did the “night kayak expérience” which I also highly recommend. We cannot think of anything that could be improved. Thanks to the staff and a big thanks to Tom!! We will never forget this.

Disappointed

I am sorry to have to write this review but the pictures that are posted for this are so far from the truth. We paid so much money to be put on a smaller , old and dirty boat :( we thought it was a joke by our tour guide when we pulled up. The food was ok, but definitely not what you consider a luxury cruise. Also extra charges for everything, even juice of coffee. The only thing that made our trip good was our guide - Aby was amazing , so thank you for that! However I do feel like the company is advertising this as a luxury cruise which in fact is definitely not.

A happiness

We spent a two day stay and one night on this boat, an extraordinary welcome, a team on board at the top, great excursions, the cabins are spacious and very comfortable, the meals are hearty and very very good, we spent one of the extra moments

Chill, no-stress beautiful trip

We did the 2N1D cruises with pickup from hotel in Hanoi. Family of 4 with two older kids (15 + 18). VIP bus was very nice with good AC and seats. We had 2 rooms on the smallest of their two boats and they were good. Not deluxe in western terms, but more than good enough with its own wc/showers and views to the ocean. The experience was chill, no stress and we enjoyed it alot. Not for the smaller kids as this would probably ruin the trip for both them and the other passengers as there is nothing for kids to do :) Our Guide was Thom and a very enjoyable guy. Wish him and our fellow passengers all the best!

A fantastic trip to Cat Ba islands

Fantastic trip from start to finish, Tom and the crew were great, they went above and beyond. The food and drinks were great with lots of variety . The activities onboard included kayaking, squid fishing, and a quick cooking class. The stop off were the highlight for me, visiting the local village and sampling the 'Happy Water' Would highly recommend this tour.

What an incredible experience

What a fantastic trip away with Venezia cruises. Our days were jam packed with kayaking, squid fishing, swimming, cooking classes, biking and much more. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, specifically Tom who was a great host: funny and he made it exciting. Couldn’t recommend this trip further, we made friends along the way with both staff and visitors. Thank you Venezia Cruises! 5 stars.

Amazing trip

Tom our guide was brilliant, spoke very good English, he was motivated and enthusiastic throughout! We had many activities in the short amount of time on the boat: Kayaking, bike tour through the village, cooking demonstration, squid fishing and time to relax on the boat. The rooms were spacious, clean and had brilliant views. Would definitely recommend this trip.
