This tour was amazing. Our tour guide was funny and incredibly helpful in arranging transportation for our group after the tour was over. The sightseeing was beautiful. It includes 4 activities (authentic Vietnamese lunch in a cruise ship, bamboo boats or kayaking, caves, and all transports) and they are must to do things if you visit Vietnam! I really enjoyed and met with people around the world. Those mates were really nice and are definitely contributing to this evaluation ;)

The trip was really well organised. Easy pick-up and drop-off with both ways of traveling in an AC bus via the express way. Tour guide his name, Tony was funny, engaging and has extensive knowledge on anything we saw and on Vietnam in general. We definitely recommend going with him. Also unlike most other tour agencies, the boat ride in Ha Long Bay does initially not go through the busy standard route but a more quiet one where literally no other boats are around and you get to experience the bay without loads of other tourists around. All in all 5/5* and a definite recommendation!

We really enjoyed this tour, The boat trip through Halong Bay lived up to expectations, and there was a good spread for lunch. Kayaking, rowing and caving were also good fun. Arrived back in Hanoi around 20.30 (express way option and 6 hours on the bay ) which meant we still had the evening to soak in the atmosphere! Perfect trip for those who want to do Halong Bay but have limited time! Highly recommended!!!

Went on an express way day trip our group of 16. It was a wonderful experience. The bus journey started off with approx 8:30 min, tour guide talk about Vietnam and recommend with update news and events in Vietnam....just the right amount of detail to keep everyone engaged and interested throughout the talk with some time to relax afterwards. Food on the boat was much better than what we expected with plenty of options and pretty well suited for Western taste. We did the trip on a Friday and we found the whole experience pleasant with no excessive crowds present. Cave visit was amazing and so was kayak trip. Everything seemed to be well managed with no confusion over what was going to happen next. One area for improvement is that the particular bus we traveled on did not have seat belts but otherwise was driven safely and was comfortable and air conditioned. I would say the trip is a very good value for money.

We arrived in Viet Nam for important conference and the last day, we had free time and I was really want to relax for this day. I did quick decide for a day trip with 6 hours on bay with cost near 50 USD/person with all included. The cruise super comfortable through out the day. food and staff was amazing and it was well organized. They took us to nice spots for swimming and kayaking. Boat ride could have been better though. Everything about it is high quality, from the luxury transfers to the five course lunch and the team running it were professional, friendly and courteous. We had a great time there and will return Halong bay for over night trip.
