Good experience with a small issue

The journey back was a bit messy, but acceptable. The tour was fun, the food was really really good!! The boat is simple, but it's good enough for a day trip. One big minus: the life jackets were moldy and disgusting, please buy new ones and take care of them🙏 minus one point for that Our guide Bing was nice and was happy to answer our questions

It was very pleasant. You are guided through beautiful parts of the bay and the program is well-balanced, so it does not get boring but is not overloaded either. I personally liked the swimming break best because we stopped in a really beautiful spot with an awesome beach, etc.

An amazing trip

It was a wonderful trip! The scenery and views were still amazing even under raining. The transportation was comfortable though it was a bit chaotic during the transition from Hanoi to Ca Ba island. Our tour guide was Bing who was friendly and always with big smile on his face.

Awesome experience!!

The tour was so much fun. You get to see beautiful nature, go kayaking, get a very nice lunch and see traditional fisherman’s village. It was very chill and the boat was a little bit more exclusive than the other huge boats. The tour guide was very nice it wasn’t rushed at all we got to swim for a long time too. We had a very good time. 🥰

Cruise with Bing 🙏

Great experience with Bing on the cruise, where we exchanged extensively on various topics (from fishing to soccer). He is a very considerate person with whom it is pleasant to travel on the Bay; I wish him continued success in his career in this incredible environment.

Wonderful day, great guide

Bing was our excellent, knowledgeable and friendly local guide for our boat trip, which included plenty of swimming opportunities off the boat, kayaking, a delicious lunch and of course spectacular views of the wonderful limestone karsts of Hua Long and Lan Ha.
