5.00Serene experience in Ha Long’s little brother bay: Bai Tu Long. Want to avoid the crowds? Come here! Entire process was super professional from pickup in Hanoi to drop off after the cruise. Entire crew were wonderful and made us feel welcome from the 1st second. Our guide Hung went out of his way to ensure everyone of our group had a great time, from sharing his deep knowledge of the bay and rich culture/history of Vietnam to guiding us sure handedly through all activities! You could feel he’s very passionate about what he’s doing, and that really makes a difference! We had a wonderful time!
Bai Tu Long with a great guide

5.00We loved this cruise in Bai Tu Long Bay, accompanied by our great guide Hung! He speaks impeccable English and French, which greatly helped with understanding and the various group visits. This bay being much less crowded than Ha Long Bay, we were not on top of each other. The services, the staff, and the activities on board were all excellent.
Perfect cruise

5.00We were picked up at our hotel in Hanoi on time Then, we started the cruise with a wonderful meal. Then a kayak ride to a beach where we were all alone! The evening on the boat also went very well (cooking demo, very good meal, Vietnamese puzzle...) Thank you to Hung (who also speaks French!!!) for taking such good care of us I recommend this bay to everyone, which is much less touristy than the main one in Ha Long And on top of that, the boat is beautiful and the room is very comfortable
Lovely Bai Tu Long Bay experience

5.00I visited Bai Tu Long Bay during my solo trip to Vietnam and it was the perfect way to relax after the bustle of Hanoi. Our tour guide, Hung, went out of his way to ensure our comfort, seamlessly switching from English to French to accommodate our multicultural group. He was always available with a smile to answer questions about the bay and Vietnamese culture. I appreciated being on a smaller boat and getting to go to more remote spots where our group had privacy to soak in the stunning sights. Everything from the fun activities to the delicious meals to the kind staff made for a great trip. My favorite part was just watching the karsts in the different light as we silently sailed past. It’s truly a magical place and I hope that it stays protected for future generations.

5.00Great experience on board Renea Cruise boats. The boats are authentic, wooden, and very charming (unlike the other boats present). I strongly recommend this excursion with them, and especially Tu Long Bay (less crowded and with fewer boats than Ha Long Bay). Our guide was amazing: Hero is really very professional and pedagogue.
Great I recommend
