About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- AravindRajagopal0 contributionsUnforgettable Adventures in the Heart of Halong BayThe Halong Bay day tour was nothing short of magical! Our first stop was Tiptop Island, where we hiked up for a breathtaking panoramic view of the emerald bay. Photos don’t do it justice—it’s something you have to see to believe! Then, we hopped on a speedboat to venture into the quieter, hidden corners of Halong Bay. Skimming across the water and discovering the less-traveled areas felt like our own private adventure. To top it off, we got to go kayaking, drifting peacefully through tranquil coves and marveling at the towering limestone cliffs up close. A huge thank you to our guide, Mr. Phong, who made every moment memorable! His knowledge, enthusiasm, and warm personality added so much to the experience. If you’re visiting Halong Bay, this tour is a must-do!Written November 3, 2024

I was a little bit worried seeing people talk about how rushed and busy some of these Ha Long Bay tours are, but this one was fantastic! We had just the right time at each activity. Our tour leader Phong made our trip extra special, he was so knowledgeable, funny and accommodating. 10/10 experience!! Thank you Phong!Written October 29, 2024
- B9401JLmarthak0 contributionsLovely trip to ha long bayPhong was an excellent tour guide and the area we travelled in was lovely. Food was really tasty. On the first stop you have time for the walk up the island and a swim of you're fast. The second stop we took the bamboo boat option which seemed much drier and less stressful as it was quite busy for the kayaks to navigate. The third stop at the cave was beautifulWritten October 29, 2024

My wife and I visited Hanoi for four nights in early April, and stayed at the Hotel Sofitel Legend Metropole - which is right in the heart of the French quarter. We did a half day private tour from the hotel, in an air conditioned car with driver and guide. This was very interesting, although the traffic was terrible. However, we did get to stop at the Tran Quoc Pagoda, the Temple of Literature, and the Hoa Lo Prison ('Hanoi Hilton') all being of interest, particularly the old prison. The hotel itself is fantastic and made the stay very enjoyable. We were lucky that the weather was not too extreme while in Hanoi - never got above 30c. In general though, the cooller seas on would be best for visiting.
