Awesome experience - Wonderful activities: kayaking, swimming, cooking class, squid fishing. Our biking got rained out, but our tour guide had back up plans! Great tour guide! "Brian/handsome" Food was plentiful and delicious! Staff really put in the effort to make our food look great as well! Bed was comfortable and the cabin was spacious.

Great for active explorers! - Very well organised trip led by a top class knowledgeable guide, Jack "Sparrow" who was very enthusiastic and engaging. Took us to some amazing places away from the busy crowds, peaceful and serene experience in the bay doing the kayaking but also the island with the cycling tour. Swam in the bay by sunset. Made great memories. Boat crew were friendly and made a special dinner for the vegans. Room was close to generator so a bit noisy at night. Highly recommend this cruise! They'll pick you up and drop you off at your hotel in the Old Quarter... Xin cam on Jack!

Lovely cruise of Lan Ha Bay - My boyfriend and I did this cruise last month and I really could not recommend it highly enough! Lucky was our guide and he did an excellent job of organizing activities like kayaking, relaxing on a secluded beach, and biking around Cat Ba. He also taught us so much about Vietnam and Vietnamese culture. The ship itself was also lovely - the bedroom was beautiful with a private balcony and modern, private bathroom. We had four meals on board, all of which were delicious. Cruising on Lan Ha Bay instead of Ha Long Bay was definitely the right choice for us as it was super quiet and peaceful. We only wished we had booked the two night tour instead of the one night tour!

Great foods, friendly services - The boat is older than i expected, but it's ok. The amount of food is too much. To decrease food waste, less amount is ok. The guide was quite nice and knowledgeable. Staff was all friendly & honesty. Thank you so much!

Excellent and great fun! - This was an excellent cruise from start to finish. Our guide Linh deserves special mention as she remained incredibly helpful and organised throughout. She also has a great sense of humour and made the trip fun for everyone. She was careful with our dietary requirements too. We had a really lovely time and particular enjoyed kayaking - and getting pretty wet! Her good English helped with our various queries too. We particularly liked the small scale of this boat and the the chance for everyone to get to know each other. Top marks!

Fun and stunning scenery - Tour guide, Brian was very attentive and informative. Enjoyable activities, good plentiful food, and accommodation good, although intermittent water leak from AC caused puddle on floor by door of cabin.

Avoid Ocean Cruise - Cruise canceled at last moment - We had booked a private cruise in mid-September for 3 days / 2 nights in Lan Ha Bay via the Vietnam Evasion agency. This cruise was to take place in mid-October. We had paid a deposit of 480USD to lock in the dates and the Ocean boat from Ocean Cruise. The day before our stay, we were told that a sudden inspection by the authorities would immobilize the boat and that we would not be able to take part in the private cruise. Instead, we found ourselves on a boat with more than 20 people, without even having a discount on the price (on the group cruise, the deposit was refunded). It's a shame. Two other groups of people on the boat experienced the same mishap. Beware of this boat company. At best we suspect real control, at worst overbooking or even a boat offered to the highest bidder. Avoid Ocean Cruise!!!
