5.00Even though only one other guest besides me was booked for this tour that day, it still took place. We had virtually the whole ship to ourselves. Unfortunately, the weather was a bit mixed. However, the other gentleman from California was a very good interlocutor. We were very well looked after and apart from the mixed weather there was nothing missing. The staff is extremely accommodating and super friendly.
Excellent Last-Minute Service – Highly Recommended!

5.00It’s very well organized. The tour is definitely worth it. The communication was great. And cant say enough about Halong Bay. The food on the cruise was great. All the stops were great too. We did the speedboat addition and that was a lot of fun. We went on a holiday so it was packed but still very well organized. Towards the end of the cruise is awesome because you can just relax and enjoy the stalagmite islands in the bay. It’s beautiful and majestic. Would highly recommend! Work with this company was very easy and worth the price. Recommend going before May’s high tourist season.
Book with this company 👍👍👍👍

5.00I highly recommend this tour. The cruise was nice and scenic. I liked the different activities on board like the cooking demonstration. I told one of the staff, Le Quyen, that I was vegetarian and she was very attentive to my needs. It was also nice that at the end, they had everyone fill out a comments sheet so they are always looking for feedback.

5.00Hi. I had a fantastic day cruise on halong bay with the amethyst cruise. The food was delicious and the service of all the staff excellent. CINDY at best price travel was excellent to deal with and responded quickly to my questions from NZ and kept in tiuch via WhatsApp. I recommend booking through them and asking for Cindy to help you plan your holiday trips with her.
