4.00We did not get what we thought we bought based on the photos and itinerary. We wanted to see floating village and cycle but that was not on our itinerary. We had a small room with tint balcony. After querying this, it was our own error as we ticked the Ha Long Bay option and not Lan Ha Bay. However, the staff were wonderful and even upgraded our room for the second night. The onboard team were excellent and guides were wonderful. All were very attentive and friendly and really cared that we were having a wonderful time. The Athena cruise line was traditional and very nice. We had two cruise directors as there was a chang-over occurring. Tim was wonderful and very knowledgeable. We then had his assistant, Michael, who was hoping to step into the role permanently some day. Michael too waa so helpful and wonderful - as a manager of a team myself, I would definitely be thinking about getting Michael into the senior role permanently soon!! We had a day boat via another company for day 2. This was well organised but spoilt by one entitled Indian group who stood their children on the food tables in filthy shoes, changed nappies and left them lying over the boat and played Indian music loud while people were trying to relax on the day boat or beach. Thankfully the day boat staff did manage the situation as best they could. We were both so pleased with the tour in the end. We were shocked at how much rubbish floated in Ha Long Bay. We caught up with many Aussies and Europeans who were all disappointed with what we saw floating by and washed up on the beaches - definitely not what the adverts show!
Great cruise

5.00The boat, food and staff were all great. Only downsides are the drinks are expensive (relative to Vietnam prices) and sadly there is a lot of garbage floating in the Halong Bay waters (but this has nothing to do with the cruise).
Bring elastic waist pants haha

5.00This was an incredible experience. The pictures do not do ha long and bai tu long bays justice. We ended up on the Signature Cruise luxury junk. Our cruise manager Andy was amazing. The room was gorgeous, and the bed was comfy. The hot water in the bathroom gets very hot pretty much instantly. Be careful not to burn yourself. The food was so good. We opted for the 2 night option, which I highly recommend. When we saw people for the 1 night packing up, it felt like we had just got there. Downside of 2 night is all of the food. Lunch and dinner were both many courses. It was all delicious, but we were so stuffed by the end. Maybe just pace yourselves better than we did haha.
Great cruise, but expect to pay more for ground transport from Hanoi to cruise site than what has been advertised.

5.00The cruise was great and enjoyable. However, there was a bit of misinformation regarding the ground transport from and to Hanoi. Originally we were suppose to pay $20 as shown on booking details for round trip and then in my chat to the tour operator later, this price went up to $25. However I was contacted on Whatsapp a day before our cruise was to being, and after a lot of back and forth, I was charged $135 for four us to be picked up from our hotel in Hanoi and then be brought back to Hanoi and then an additional $18 to be taken to the airport which was the only part which was consistent with the information provided initially. Except the extra amounts which we did not expect to pay, the cruise was very enjoyable.
Stunning Natural Setting, Outstanding Crew and Staff

5.00Cruising among the thousands of islands and islets in Halong Bay is a wonder of its own, but the amazing crew and staff made our cruise an above and beyond experience. Attentive, congenial and responsive, they constantly pampered us. Also noteworthy were the exceptional shipboard meals. We recommend the three day cruise for optimal enjoyment.
