We had a wonderful experience. The staff provided white glove service. The views are stunning. You cruise for a bit then park and have the option to either kayak or hop in a boat (paddled by a local) to go see a cave and a cove that had very few people in it. We really enjoyed this and it was a great way to see the beauty of Ha Long. Shout out to Le Quyen for great service! You won’t regret booking this. Note: the jacuzzi was not heated and far too cold to use. Also they stop for 30 minutes on the way to the ship at a local pearl market in hopes that you will buy things. Sort of annoying but that seems to be the way things go in Vietnamese tours as this has happened on each of our tours.

Amazing day spent at Halong Bay despite it being cloudy. Everything was conducted as per schedule and the staff went above and beyond to provide great service (including providing extras like blankets for the sunbeds on a cold day). I really enjoyed the variety of the buffet lunch which was first class cuisine yet local food and the rowboat excursion to the Lan Ha bay caves. All in all, really nice day spent seeing the beauty of the bays. Well worth the price.

This Jadesails 1 day tour or Ha Long and Lan Ha Bay was just an Awesomely Amazing way to see the natural wonder of this region. The tour was very well orchestrated and the communication was excellent. We opted for the luxury limo pickup and started the tour with a visit to the Vietnam Pearl market where you can see how they produce the pearls. There was also authentic crocodile and silk items for purchase that were simply beautiful. The cruise was filled with great food, live band, bamboo cruise around some of the mountainous islands and swimming in the beautiful bay. The cruise ship was very well maintained with great deck seating, hot tub and designated male and female showers and wash rooms. Well worth the time to see this natural wonder on THIS cruise. Professional photos on the ship are also included. TIP: Take cash for tips and shopping and wear/take a bathing suit for kayaking or swimming.
