The tour was very relaxing and with beautiful landscapes. The boat was in perfect condition and is very cozy. The food was also very good. We were in the low season so it was much more exclusive, and the weather was great. I want to highlight the work of guide Tony. He is great and was totally helpful and fun, made a total difference.

I booked the Serenity Premium Cruise at Cát Bà Island, and right from the beginning, the experience was excellent. The online booking process was smooth and easy. They picked us up in a well-planned charter, and the entire cruise was organized perfectly. The hospitality on board was outstanding — the crew was warm, attentive, and truly professional. Our guide was fantastic and made the whole journey even more enjoyable. Even though there were only a few guests on the day, the team delivered a top-class experience without compromising on any part of the itinerary. They took us to all the key spots around the bay, and every moment felt thoughtfully planned and beautifully executed. It was a splendid day overall. I strongly recommend the Serenity Premium Cruise to anyone visiting Cát Bà Island. This is definitely a thumbs-up from me — just go for it, don’t even think twice!

I recommend this cruise 300%. This is the only operator that we found that can flexibly pick you up and drop you off at Hanoï, Cat Ba or Nin Binh. We had an amazing time, our guide Tony was extremely friendly, accessible but also respecting our time alone. The activities were fantastic: cruise, kayaking, jumping from the boat, swimming and our highlight: feeding the monkeys on the monkey island.... Tony took care of our safety and comfort all along the cruise. We had an excellent lunch and 2 hot showers after the swim. We will leave this cruise with plenty of good memories and nostalgy, until the next one (with Cat Ba Express!!)

Great tour, Tony and his crew were very well organized and excellent hosts. The food and facilities on boat were perfect, as indicated. Tour itself had nice sporty kayaking, also exciting through caves (if tide allows). Totally recommend.

Excellent day trip with Mr Hậu and Tinh! Beautiful area to experience. Must see! But be aware of the long transfer time, about 3h each way.

Our trip with Serenity Premium Cruise at Cat Ba Island was amazing from booking to drop-off. The team stayed in touch and made sure the pickup was smooth. Our guide, Hậu Nguyễn Công (Mr. Happy), was exceptional — full of energy, humor, and genuine care. He made sure everyone stayed cheerful throughout the cruise, shared fascinating stories about Lan Ha Bay, and even captured amazing group photos with great enthusiasm. Even though it rained for a short time and we couldn’t visit a few places, the kayaking and beautiful views made the trip unforgettable. The cruise offered plenty of comfortable seating to relax and enjoy the stunning scenery. Overall, a memorable and well-managed experience.
