5.00Louie was the perfect guide. The early departure ensured that we missed the crowds. He was engaging and informative throughout the day. Having a private tour gave us the flexibility to change from a standard tour which was important to us. Our driver, Hoa, was conscientious. He drove safely and ensured a timely trip. Our private boat was exactly what we wanted. The food was amazing and the crew helpful and friendly.

5.00An Unforgettable Journey Through halong Vietnam! The Best Decision We Made in Hanoi! If you are looking for an authentic, seamless, and deeply personal way to see the halong bay from Hanoi, look no further than Mr. Thomas. We booked a multi-day tour with him and it was, without a doubt, the highlight of our entire trip to Vietnam.

5.00Take a private tour, hassle free enjoyment rather than being part of a mob.... do not bother with the beach, just a massively overcrowded urinal ! Everywhere is crowded as it is a beautiful place and you should see it, but having your own boat with an excellent chef makes for a much better experience. Many thanks to our Guide Tim Tam, we enjoyed good conversation and many laughs.

5.00As usual, we booked our tour with Viaotor and they did not disappoint. Our guide Phil was kind and courteous. He answered all our questions and gave us a lot of information about the history of Vietnam. Since this was a private tour we had the boat all to ourselves and the captain and crew treated us as royalty. The food they provided for us was like a feast. During all the stops, our guide Phil, was our personal photographer taking video and photos of us during all the excursions. I highly recommend the private tour. Every time we do it is an amazing experience.
