Déjà, mieux vaut réserver en agence et donne un pourboire au gens sur place…. Et sinon, c’est vraiment trop touristique et organise de manière stressante. It’s best to book in hanoi or somewhere else. There are many agencies. Then you can tip people on spot… Otherwise, it’s really too touristic and organiser in a stressful way. Our guide was funny but sometimes mean and oppressing. I didn’t have a great experience but in was not horrible

The food was excellent and plentiful. The cruise was breathtaking. I enjoyed the hike and the cave as well. The boat was very clean.
