Fantastic day trip to see Halong Bay! - This was a really great day trip, the transport was organised very well, picking us up from the hostel. Nice coach for transport and the boat was also big, spacious and modern. A lot of food is provided for lunch, as well as fruit and local wine. The day does not feel rushed, and it’s a smooth journey to see Halong bay and associated sites. The staff were all very friendly, provided great service. Phong, the tour guide has a great personality and makes the trip fun, and provides very good information throughout. Thanks for a great day!

Amazing experience - The whole experience was amazing! Sunny, our guide, was very informative and super helpful the entire day. Dont have any bad things to say about hil or the experience in general. The boat tour started with a feast, and the food was really good. We visited Ha Long bay with its amazing views. Kayaks was super fun and we even saw monkeys! The caves were beautiful too. Overall, the trip is so worth the price. We eneded up exhausted from all the activities but thats always a good sign. We loved it. Thank you Sunny!

The day just flew by! :) - The trip was really great! Me and my boyfriend had a fun time! Here are some impressions: 1. If you’re worried about getting lost in the pick up procedure you needn’t be! Sunny (out Tour Guide) will find you! He picked us up from where we were waiting at the side of a busy street, umbrella in hand and then guided us to the bus! 2. The itenarey is exactly as told but even though it may seem hectic. It actually wasn’t! Sunny gave us a great tour of the cave and the bay all together! He made the busy schedule fun with his lightheartedness and jokes :) 3. Our favorite part was the kayaking! When it comes for you to decide if you rather want to take a kayak or the bamboo boat I definitely recommend the kayak! It’s so much more fun and independent!

Wonderful day at Halong Bay - We had a great day at Halong Bay. Our Tour Guide Sunny was very friendly and funny. He gave a lot of useful information about the country and the Vietnamese culture which was very nice. Although it was raining we were very satisfied with the 1-day tour and we would recommend to add this to your bucket list in Vietnam. The tour guide Sunny did a great job!

Sunny is the Best Tour Guide! - Unfortunately, the rain was terrible at Halong Bay but we had the best service on the boat with Sunny our tour guide! He was funny, reliable and responsible! The cave was an interesting expedition and we enjoyed it. Prepare an extra set of clothes and towel if you want to kayak because we were wet completely. Though the fun was x10000! Beautiful indeed! Would do it again without a doubt! Pick a sunny day!! Boat was super luxury! We took a good package!
