I had a great time there, we had a delicious local lunch before kayaking. The food here is so good, I love spring rolls so much. The price total for the tour is reasonable, and the tour guide is so friendly and helpful.

After preliminary research some cruise operations will take you to shops on the way to Ha Long Bay. This cruise operation had no such stops.
We were picked up by bus right outside of our Airbnb in Hanoi around 8 am. We made one bathroom stop on the way. There’s a lunch followed by kayaking, swimming, a spring roll cooking lesson, and a quick cave tour as we departed Ha Long Bay.
The boat was well kept and the scenery was unbelievable. Hung was awesome. He gave interesting history lessons throughout the day which I really appreciated too.

Super fun group and excellent and enthusiastic guide (thanks Hung!).
Worth paying a premium price for the abundance and quality of the food ( plenty of high quality seafood and more) and for the high number of different activities done.

This was a really good day out. Hotel collection, coach to coast and a day cruising Halong Bay in a nice boat that had plenty of room. Lunch was excellent and staff pleasant. Hung, the guide, was friendly, attentive and knowledgeable and really helped to make the day a special one. Recommended!

It’s the best and most efficient way to see Halong bay. Tran, the guide, is extremely patient, accommodating and fun. He gave us useful information about Halong bay & things to do before stopping. It was an awesome experience on Kayaking time. Highly recommend!
