Great experience, our tour guide provided us with Vietnamese history and had great humour, he worked very hard to accommodate everyone. The cruise ship was beautiful, clean and very fun. The activities were wonderful, bike riding through the island national park was my favourite. Truly unforgettable

We had a great day. Everything was well organised and ran seamlessly.
My wife and I absolutely loved our one day cruise to Lan Ha Bay with Serenity. The boat was clean, spacious and very comfortable. The food at lunch was delicious, with a lot of variety, good options for all diets, and very fresh. The staff were wonderful. Very friendly, informative and kept the cruise fun. The cruise had a good mix of active and relax time, meaning we never felt rushed and could enjoy the experience and the beauty of the bay without feeling like we were being taken from one place to the next. A perfect day out.
Amazing service, amazing trip! Great food, great amenities!
