Absolutely incredible. Robert is 100% the best guide that I’ve had. Good service amazing food made fresh and great atmosphere. I would recommend to anyone. Traveling with a 22 year old daughter and 20 year old son. Many times said best experience they have ever had. If you ever have a day in Hanoi would more than recommend the private tour.
Awesome experience probably not the smartest thing to do on the 2nd day visiting the country because I’m sure it’s going to make everything else seem lame! Robert our guide along with the crew were very nice and kind! Food was amazing!

It was a great day out. Learned a lot from the guide. Great food on the boat. The pace of the tour suited us.
We did a private tour of Ha Long Bay with Robert and it was incredible. Robert is extremely knowledgeable, picked us up and dropped us off in Hanoi, and he knew just when and where to go to avoid crowds. We can't wait to use Love Vietnam Travel for our next trip to Vietnam.
We had a WONDERFUL day with our guide, The, to Halong Bay. He was so kind and informative. We highly recommend lovevietnamtravel.com. Halong Bay is beautiful, and The made sure we had less touristy areas to see, and we explored two caves and took a bamboo boat ride. Truly a highlight of a great trip. Highly recommend that you book a private guide to ensure the highest quality experience to help miss the crowds and get a more personalized narrative of the history, geology, and features of this World Heritage site. Our driver was also superb. A really terrific experience all around.
Fantastic private trip to Halong Bay. Our guide Hai (spelling?) was knowledgeable and personable. Highly recommend the trip.
Worth doing a private tour for sure! Robert is the best tour guide there is. Lunch is delicious and there is so much food. Communication was very good the whole time and we were well looked after
