This cruise is one of the best day trips I have ever experienced and for the price, it is more than value for money. The ship itself is absolutely outstanding. The level of magnificence, attention to detail and comfort is 5*. Before boarding, there is the opportunity for photos with the name and dolphin statues, which makes for great memories. The entrance hall is eco-friendly, welcoming without grandeur, but classy. The decoration on the ship is equally magnificent. Staff are so welcoming and accommodating. Fatima - cruise manager, gracefully introduced herself at our table and assured us that if we needed anything, we only had to ask. The buffet options are vast. After my second round, I realised there was a whole grilled section that I had missed. The viewing deck lounge is my favourite space. The sofa chair looking out of the window is a memory never to be forgotten. The opportunity to dream and view the world as your oyster is available in this space. As we arrived at each of the locations, the staff were helpful and informative on the history of the sites. Linh and another male staff member (name escapes me) were available as guides whilst walking through the cave and when going to the lagoon. This was reassuring. The entertainment when returning to the dock was positive and memorable. We had a DJ and then a singer. Both were good, played some good music and on a warmer day, a pool party would have been a great way to finish a very special experience. If there was any area for improvement for the company to consider, it would be the number of canapes available at the end of the trip. I missed out as I did not want to wait in the long queue. Partly my fault, but I was expecting food to be available. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone wanting to visit the cave, islands and the lagoon.

We had an amazing dolphin cruise experience with Huy! He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone had a great time. The trip was well-organized, and we got to see plenty of dolphins up close — it was truly unforgettable. Huy also shared interesting facts about the area and made the whole journey fun and relaxing. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a memorable day on the water!

The Dolphin Cruise is really good and should be the most luxurious cruise ship on the Halong side. Buffet is also very good, and there is a show to help, worth coming over to experience!
Just amazing

It was brilliant. From the cruise to the service to food. We had great vegetarian food options as well. The guide Linh was superb with her service. They went out of the way to make us feel special. Highly recommend.
