Ting at lave i Cat Ba National Park

Thank you, serenity for providing us with a beautiful cruise and a great way to end our vacation in Vietnam. Our tour guide Tuna was especially helpful and easy to talk to since he spoke English. He is patient with the non English speakers and answered all our questions. We got to learn a little more about the beautiful country. We had a great time and was able to make new friends because of him.

It's very easy to book on Klook, and you can scan the code directly at the gate without needing to exchange your ticket at the counter.

today was a great day in the lan ha bay when i chose the serenity cruise tour from my pickup spot in hanoi they made sure to take care of the rest, and the tourguide Ha-ha was thoroughly entertaining.

Dejlig dagstur. Lang dag på grund af rejsetiden derhen og tilbage, men det var det værd. God guide, transport var fint arrangeret og komfortabel. Båden var i top med frokost, kajakroning, svømning og smukke omgivelser. Turen med golfvogn over øen til grotten og museet var også rigtig sjov. Det var rart, at det var småt og ikke mega-turistpræget.

great leader with Hai. good communication. good itinerary. great hotel in cat ba. ship was a little dated and needed some love. but great value for money

Bedste krydstogt! Overgik faktisk mine forventninger. Værelset og maden var meget luksuriøse. Taknemmelig for, at jeg valgte dette krydstogt til min familietur. Og rejselederen var sjov (Jack og Jennie). Hele rejseplanen var fantastisk, ingen stress, og det bedste var – La Han Bay var ikke så overfyldt som Ha Long Bay.

Ha long bay is very nice, staying overnight at boat is a bit boring, not much activity after dinner. Transportation from halong bay to Cat Ba island and back to Hanoi is quite well organised and smooth. The cat ba island trip is not bad, we got a private tour to the cave and national Park. Mr Kia are knowledgeable and his driver are very friendly and approachable.

I had a great experience joining this trip. The tour guide, Mr. Hao (Happy), really left a great impression on me. Just like his nickname, “Happy,” he truly kept everyone’s spirits up, even though it was raining that day. He was enthusiastic, energetic, helpful, cheerful, attentive, and always made sure everyone was having a good time. At first, I was a little disappointed with the weather. It was raining, and I had hoped to enjoy kayaking under the sunshine. However, it turned out to be one of my best memories—the experience of kayaking in the rain was unforgettable. Mr. Happy was always reminding us, “Have fun, don’t get hurt,” and he constantly looked out for everyone’s safety. He also frequently checked on us throughout the trip to make sure we were doing well. The food on the cruise was great as well. Overall, I would rate this experience 9/10. Thank you, Mr. Happy, for making this trip so enjoyable. I hope to see you again someday!

For those of you who are considering a Lan Ha Bay tour, I'd like to share some helpful information! Our itinerary was: hotel pickup -> transfer to the pier -> cruise boarding -> kayaking/swimming -> lunch -> visit to Viet Hai village (doctor fish) -> return to the pier -> hotel drop-off. (Once you board the cruise, an English-speaking guide will explain the itinerary.) For those staying on Cat Ba Island, this is a great way to spend a productive half-day at a low cost. 1) Most of the guests are Vietnamese, but the English-speaking guide makes sure that no one feels left out. 2) Compared to other cruises, the quality is very good, and there's less boat vibration, making it more comfortable. 3) Lunch is buffet-style, and the quality is surprisingly good. 4) There's absolutely no pressure for tips or shopping, so you can just relax and enjoy your day~ Here are a few tips, haha: - It's not primarily for water activities, and the water isn't clear, so snorkeling is practically impossible. It's more for just getting in the water, haha. - Since it's mostly Vietnamese guests, it might feel a bit unfamiliar (frequent smoking on deck, chaotic meal times lol). - It's a different experience from tours arranged by Koreans, which are usually well-developed for tourism, but it's still a decent way to spend a day!
