Timely pick up from the hotel at Hanoi. Good bus (with wifi).
The cruise itself is just superb. Those mystical islands gliding past you in a timeless pace
Great room. Stayed on the top deck rooms with small balconies
Food: Amazing. Should be the best food we ever had. You will be stuffed.
Crew: They would do anything to take care of us.
The day boat was large and clean. The safety standards were not compromised even once. Even if we took the small boat for 5 minutes, everyone had to wear the life jacket. They even had life jackets for the young one.
We really enjoyed this cruise. It was one of our highlights of Vietnam. There are plenty of options for cruising in Halong Bay but after seeing some of the other boats we were pleased with our choice.The cruise itself was superb including safety aspects. The 24 hour experience was well structured and organised. However, drinks on ship are too expensive. Anyway, I would definitely recommend you guy for the Halong Bay tour! Cheers.
We were satisfied with everything provided by the cruise and crew team!
We were lucky to take the cruise on a nice weather. Everything was excellent. The trip was really well-organized. The cabins were delightful, spic and span clean with en suite facillities.The catering service was beyond expectation, and service by all the staff was excellent.
Our tour guide was really helpful, always took care of us. The meals, the cabin... were all great. However, you should be more flexible in pickup. Spend 1 additional hour due to other pickups. Overall a FANTASTIC MEMORABLE EXPERIENCE.
I am surprised at how good the guide's English is. Like a native!
Peter Pan - the guide is very nice. We are glad we take the second floor room as it has much better view. Overall the trip is great and there is little to improve.
I am glad that I heed the advice of Blue Dragon Tours to book Carina. Absolutely amazing trip. The boat is smaller type but very nicely decorated. All staffs friendly, food is good, scenary is amazing. Great job guys!
Very nice experience, would like to go back in the near future.
