07:45 – 8:30: Our English-speaking tour guide will pick up guests from various hotels in Hanoi Old Quarter, ranging from 7:45– 8:30. We try to make the pick-ups as timely as possible but with morning traffic in the Old Quarter and many hotels to collect from, this time is approximate. Please be ready to help expedite this process.

My family booked this tour for our final stay in Hanoi, and it exceeded all expectations. From the tour guide and boat staff to the excursions and food, everything was excellent. Our tour guide reached out days in advance to ensure we were well-prepared for the trip. We highly recommend this tour to anyone planning a visit to Ha Long Bay!
The trip was wonderful! Everything, from the food and drinks to the overall quality, was top-notch and affordable. The staff were fantastic, especially our tour guide, who was incredibly helpful and polite. Highly recommend for a great experience and an enjoyable journey.
Our guide made our day trip truly outstanding. They provided just the right amount of information to keep things engaging without overwhelming us. We were picked up promptly for our Full-Day Private Tour in Halong, and water was provided throughout the journey. (Tip: consider bringing snacks if you missed breakfast like I did). Lunch was absolutely generous in portions. While the range of drinks on the boat was good, they could have been cooler. Options included soft drinks and wine. The itinerary included kayaking and a cave visit, with the cave's slippery conditions emphasizing the importance of appropriate footwear
The time spent in Halong Bay was truly exceptional. We thoroughly enjoyed every moment of the tour. From the delicious cuisine to the impeccable service and breathtaking views, everything surpassed expectations. We highly recommend this experience to everyone seeking a memorable journey in Halong Bay.
Our guide was absolutely amazing. his expertise in food and the Old Quarter was impressive, and he provided us with valuable insights into Hanoi and Vietnamese culture. The food he introduced us to was delicious, and his recommendations for the rest of our stay were invaluable.
