Great with the exception of the terrible “motel” booked on 1st night, if this is sold as a luxury tour the hotel should be at least a 4 star and not a 2 star

Very nice tour and super recommended, we chose the option of the Pagoda + paddle boats through the caverns and the one night cruise . The Pagoda is breathtaking and we are very happy we chose this option, lots to learn about the history and meaning of Pagodas and this particular one was just beautiful . The paddle boat tour through the caverns was amazing, we really enjoyed it . The overnight motel ( that the only way I can describe this place ) was terrible, they sell this as a Deluxe Cruise and the one night should before the actual cruise should had been booked in a better hotel. The second day we were taken to the Ship and all went to smoothly , I almost did not book Halong Bay as all the reviews I read about Halong Bay were terrible saying that it was very dirty , so far from the truth, all was exceptionally clean from the port , to the little boat that took us to the Ship , the Ship itself and most importantly the Bay itself was so clean , don’t know why those reviews. The next day we were taken to a beautiful enclosed area that only had one entry under a natural bridge that would take you to this lagoon surrounded by mountains , inside was breathtaking . We were able to see monkeys which are not always out . The food and the service at the ship were A+++. We paid for a deluxe cabin with a balcony and it is what you have to book as I saw some of the other rooms and they were not that good. All in all with the exception of the 1st night at that terrible “motel” was very good and I highly recommend this tour.

Halong Bay Cruise - The cabins were crammed, we were on Athena Cruise - Host was Henry - too much talk no action Pictures show you a beautiful cabins so spacious. I booked with 2 teenagers so 3 of us and we were put in one cabin which was totally opposite to what was advertised, 3 single beds set up next to each other out of which one was smaller than the other 2. we had to slide out of the bed length ways coz no space on the sides. Cabin had a musty smell and televisions had no connection. Very Poor experience Food was average - fruits provided were very limited quantity My son caught stomach bug and threw up all night, he hurt himself given the slide to get off the bed. Ninh Bin - lovely experience, nice comfy coach - well organised River Cottages - we were put up in a multi storey appartment kind building - nothing like the picture - no river in sight. Dinner was included - out of 8 dishes 6 were pineapple base - soup pineapple, entree pineapple, chicken pineapple, dessert fresh pineapple Overall not worth the money

Overall, we are very glad we did it and the customer service from in country tour operators was very good! It was a lot of drive time, standing in line time, and lots of people management. At times, crowds were very large. Everything promised in the tour was delivered.
