My wife and I had a fantastic experience on our Ha Long Bay day cruise with Dolphin on March 13, 2026. The entire trip was seamless, starting with a punctual and comfortable round-trip Limousine transfer from our Hanoi hotel. The full package was excellent value, featuring a delicious lunch and a fun kayaking session amidst stunning scenery. We really appreciated the smooth organization and professional service from start to finish. It was a truly memorable day and a highlight of our Vietnam trip. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area!

It was an impeccably curated day—tranquil, scenic, and deeply memorable. A journey to Halong Bay is undoubtedly worthwhile, especially when experienced from the comfort of a beautifully appointed bungalow on board. Nestled with panoramic views of the emerald waters and limestone karsts, the bungalow offered a serene private retreat, blending modern amenities with subtle Vietnamese design elements to create a cozy, intimate atmosphere. This elevated the entire experience, making it not just a cruise, but a true escape.

Absolutely exceptional. On a 5 star rating, this is a 6 star trip. The boat, the buffett, the amenities, the staff, EVERYTHING, exceeded all expectations and our expectations were high. This is THE only Halong River Cruise to consider. Price included tour guides and tickets for all three major attractions in Halong Bay and even entertainment on the way back home.

Our dolphin cruise was absolutely incredible — truly the best day ever! Seeing the dolphins up close was such a magical experience, and the whole trip was so well organised. A special shoutout to the manager, Fatima, who went above and beyond to take care of everyone and made the day feel extra special. It was also my birthday, and I couldn’t have asked for a better way to celebrate. Highly, highly recommend!

It was a truly memorable journey, enriched by thoughtful details and warm hospitality. The vessel was elegantly adorned with tasteful Christmas décor—soft ambient lighting, evergreen garlands, and subtle festive accents—that created a cozy, inviting atmosphere throughout. These seasonal touches, combined with exceptional service and scenic beauty, elevated the entire experience into something truly special.
