Well Organised and Very Enjoyable day-trip from Hanoi hosted by the very friendly Mr. Phong - For visitors who do not have time for an overnight cruise on Halong Bay, this tour is a great alternative. The communication with our guide, Mr.Phong, was excellent. The early pick-up went smoothly and we were on-board at Halong Bay by mid-morning. Of course, the various destinations were crowded with tourists, as they always will be, but the trip to the various attractions was well planned and very well run. The lunch on-board the ship was also delicious. I thoroughly enjoyed the day out, especially the last stop at Surprise Cave. It certainly is impressive. I recommend this tour to anyone on a tight timeframe. You will be in good hands, you will see a lot and have great fun and be back in your Hanoi hotel by about 9pm on the day. Excellent tour, 5 star!

Amazing experience with a great guide - An amazing one day trip to Ha Long from Hanoi. Our guide- Phong was very warm and hospitable. He spoke great English and explained everything well. The experiences were well paced out through the the day and was not overwhelming. The caves were the best part and is a must visit.

Great Trip! - Very nice trip. Must see for anyone visiting Hanoi. Our guide Mr. Phong was very nice. He shared anecdotes with us and helped us with vegetarian food. The boat on which we took the cruise was among the nicer ones among all. Highly recommended.
