Excellent overall experience, friendly crews! A big shout out to the tour guide. He's knowledgeable, caring and patient. The group is not too packed nor crowded, definitely suitable for friends, couples and families. The ferry is newer and better furnished than other ferries in the marina. If you have one day to spare in Hanoi, strongly recommend this tour.
We went on a day cruise to Halong bay with a group of 8 friends and we really enjoyed it! The boat was very nice and certainly big enough for all the people to have a plesant day. The food and service was good! The guide gave some explanations when necessary. For the activity you could choose between kayaking or going on a boat made of bamboo with a guide that roos for you. We chose to do kayaking and even saw some monkies! We also went for a swim and saw a beautiful cave. Would definitly recommend it!
From the moment I booked this trip, the travel agent, William reached out to me then he helped me book our entire 4 days in Hanoi including airport transfers at a better price than our hotel. Thanks to William, our entire trip went smoothly. Would definitely book through William again.
