5.00If you are considering a trip to Vietnam, you must book this cruise. It was, without a doubt, a five-star experience from start to finish. The natural beauty of Halong and Lan Ha Bay is unparalleled but this luxury cruise elevates the scenery into a truly transcendent vacation. The defining feature of this trip was the incredible service. The staff were professional, incredibly friendly and anticipated our every need. The ship itself felt brand new, blending elegant design with every modern comfort you could wish for. Our days were filled with diverse and engaging activities including morning Tai Chi sessions on the sundeck, kayaking through serene lagoons and enjoying stunning sunsets with expertly crafted cocktails. The itinerary focuses on the peaceful Lan Ha Bay providing a more intimate connection with nature which highlights the cruise's commitment to quality. The food was a highlight, feeling like a high-end restaurant experience every evening, featuring the region's freshest ingredients. This cruise represents the ultimate in relaxed elegance and adventure.

5.00Our cruise trip visiting Halong and Lan Ha Bays was a flawless experience. The scenery is genuinely spectacular, with the limestone karsts creating a magical landscape at every turn. The highlight was our visit to the serene Dark & Bright Cave, where kayaking through the hidden lagoon was an unforgettable adventure. Onboard, the service was impeccable. The crew was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel so welcome. The food was a delicious feast of fresh, local flavors. From relaxing on the deck to enjoying the exciting activities, everything was perfectly organized and exceeded all our expectations. It was truly a perfect, worry-free vacation.
Amazing trip! A must-do experience!!

The staff were fantastic—super friendly and helpful with everything. The food was delicious, especially the fresh seafood. The whole trip was easy, relaxing, and perfectly organized. We loved every minute and highly recommend this cruise to everyone!

5.00Our journey was the perfect blend of luxury and natural wonder. The scenery is unbeatable, but the highlight was definitely our guided kayak trip to the captivating Dark & Bright Cave system. Paddling into that serene, hidden lagoon felt like discovering a secret world! Back on board, the crew provided exceptional, five-star service, making us feel incredibly welcome. Our cabin was beautiful and the food was outstanding—fresh, delicious, and plentiful. Every moment, from sunrise yoga to evening cocktails, was impeccably arranged. It was a seamless, relaxing, and unforgettable experience that exceeded all expectations. We can't wait to come back!
Don't miss this experience when in Vietnam!

5.00Great experience! Very nice vessel with luxury huts, perfect service from staff and the dinner was awesome: the delicious courses kept coming :-) Mr. Quy took care of all the arrangements and also arranged a connecting taxi after the transfer was arranged so that we could catch our domestic flight from HAN without any problems. Highly recommended!
Welcome luxe treat

5.00Thought wouldn't be as good as expected because the weather was cloudy & misty, but actually made it more atmospheric (IMO). Fab boat, great crew - v helpful & funny. Food was lovely & varied. Drinks were reasonably priced. Rooms were amazing - bed & pillows the comfiest I've slept in this trip. Only thing was my water didn't run very hot, so the luxurious bath I'd planned was disappointing. Otherwise a fab trip! Thanks all
