Great experience on a well run / well appointed cruise boat. The staff, led by Mr Mel , were excellent throughout. The food was 1st class throughout the 3 day trip. In a country blessed with great food , the food on this boat was the best that we have enjoyed.

We took our grandson for the Sunday brunch for his birthday. While this is his favorite restaurant in the Branson. area, he had not been there for brunch. He couldn't believe the wonderful selection of well prepared and diverse food. Our server, Jon, was not disappointing either. He was an expectionally pleasant and accommodating server. It is such a pleasure to be at the Keeter Center with its extraordinary purpose and how well they carry out what they claim to be. Thank you!

Very very large comfortable cabins. All staff were well trained, courteous and friendly. Nothing was too much. Special thank you to Lily and Sky. With a HUGE thank you to Royal, who looked after us at every meal. The meals were excellent. Varied and fresh. We loved our side trips. Such a beautiful region of Vietnam.

What a wonderful experience!!! Exceeded our expectations...we were a little concerned about what it would be like after reading some reviews about the area and the amount of plastic etc in the water. But, we were not disappointed!!! Probably helped that we travelled in low season with less crowds and boats. The Orchid Classic Cruise was amazing, our suite spacious and the most beautiful views!!! The staff and service we could not fault, nothing was too much trouble. Loved the trips they organised, kayak, cave, swimming on a small beach...The boat manager Mr Bang was extremely helpful and kind. Chris, our waiter throughout the cruise a joy. David, our guide to the village very informative and funny!!! Would highly recommend, you will not be disappointed!!!

I had my brother plan the Vietnam portion of our SE Asia trip and had not done any research prior. WOW, Ha Long was stunning and I am so glad he chose Orchid Cruises for us. We only did a one night on Orchid but it was well worth the money for the sites and the food. Ha Long is breathtaking and seeing it from your own cabin was nothing short of magical. Thien was the guest coordinator and was very attentive to any needs of the guests. I'd highly recommend booking with them and would certainly do a return trip.

The cruise was great, people very kind, rooms spacious, food delicious, wine very expensive though (general problem in VIetnam). The only issue was with the rooms were too hot, maybe air con too weak or insulation etc not enough.
