5.00OurHalong Bay experience was absolutely breathtaking and seamlessly organized from start to finish. The true highlight of the trip was our superb guide, Luca who was incredibly professional and charismatic throughout the entire journey. From the moment we were picked up from our hotel to drop off, he provided detailed explanation of everything we saw sharing fascinating insights into the history, culture, and geological formations of the bay. His deep knowledge made the landscape come alive. Much Mahalo🇻🇳. Cam On! Eric and Nelia
An unforgettable experience 🤩

5.00We chose this trip for the onboard pool and the activities. All tours seem to do the same things but having a family that is over 6ft, is difficult to find buses to accommodate. However the buses that this company have are recliners and the leg room is more than most. The family was very comfortable. The activities on the tour were also great! Our bus driver (Dong) and our tour guide (Day) were amazing!! We have two people who are mobility challenged, and they assisted when required (even when we said it was okay, they stepped up). I highly recommend this tour! We booked this with Cường (Kevin) and he was amazing as well! He did everything he could to make everything qonderful for us and he it was an amazing time!! Thank you to Cường, Day and Dong and everyone else who looked after us!
Great day-trip experience

5.00This day-trip/cruise to Halong bay with GAT is a wonderful experience. Our guide, Mr. Son, is very knowledgeable and explained everything so well. Also, he tend to crack jokes which made the adventure more fun. Our driver, Trung, is a safe driver. Will definitely book with them again on our next Vietnam trip.
Great day trip- would highly recommend this company

5.00Ha Long day trip was gorgeous. The views, the boat, the water (after walking up to the top of the island) and friendly staff. The trip was well organised although, a little rushed through the last cave.
Fantastic tour

5.00I wanted to share some feedback from our Ha Long Bay day cruise from Hanoi :) We had an AMAZING time on the tour! :D The tour guide Mr Ben, the man was absolutely fun! He took great care of us and also made our time very enjoyable with jokes at any moment 😁 The locations were stunning and the activities were really worth it! My highlight was the speedboat, on a clear sunny day it's the best option to go deeper into the bay. The buffet lunch was also very very good, the staff were wonderful too! So all in all we had a super special day with a ton of memories to take back home! ♥️ Thank you for everything!
Staff are kind
