5.00Beautiful cruise for those who have a tight schedule or budget (because it's a little short we would like to stay longer!), very good welcome from the team. The meals are hearty and delicious! Our guide Anbeck is very friendly, we particularly liked his explanations during the Tai Chi course.
Always again!!

5.00I had an amazing experience on the two days and one night cruise in Cat Ba, Vietnam! The entire trip was very well organized, and the scenery around the limestone islands was absolutely breathtaking. Everything ran smoothly from start to finish, and the activities were both fun and relaxing. What made the experience truly special was our tour guide AnBeck. He was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic throughout the whole day. He shared interesting facts about the area, explained the history and local culture, and always made sure everyone in the group felt comfortable and included. His positive energy and sense of humor made the trip even more enjoyable. Thanks to him, the cruise felt more personal and engaging rather than just a typical tour. If you’re planning a day cruise in Cat Ba, I highly recommend it—especially if you get such a fantastic tour guide!
