Things to do in Lan Ha Bay

Epic! Our guide, Ken was such a sweetheart! The other guides were also kind, enthusiastic & fun! Kayaking, Swimming, Jacuzzi was all fun. Although, I didn’t do any of it - the scenery & vibes on deck was amazing. The food was definitely worth it. I would recommend wearing light clothes as walking through the cave in Catbi will make you sweat. Ken guided us through the cave with a lot of historic knowledge & made sure we all were together & safe.

We had the most spectacular day with Serenity cruise. The entire experience was flawless from start to finish. Our guide, Tuna, was amazing! The food was delicious. The bay is absolutely breathtaking and photos don’t even come close to how it looks in real life. We would absolutely recommend this tour!

We had a fantastic experience with Taliya Day Cruise! We arrived early at Terminal 36B, and the staff kindly guided us to the air-conditioned waiting room at 36A, which was equipped with four restrooms. The cruise departed right on time, and the boat itself felt very new and well-maintained. Although some previous reviews mentioned that plastic water bottles were prohibited, there was actually no such restriction in place. The itinerary was well-paced and comfortable without being exhausting. Coupled with the warm, friendly, and attentive service from the crew, it was truly a wonderful and enjoyable trip!

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!

We had such a wonderful and memorable experience with the Jewels of the Bay cruise! The cruise itself was great, the food was delicious, and everything was well organized. What made the experience even more special was our tour guide Minh aka Johnny aka meow meow. He was fun, energetic, and genuinely enjoyable to be around. I really loved how he interacted with everyone and handled the group throughout the trip. He made sure everyone was having a good time and brought such positive energy to the whole experience. Overall, it was an amazing day and definitely one of the highlights of our Vietnam trip. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Ha Long Bay! We would absolutely do it again!

Thank you Azura Cruise Team for the amazing experience! from the pick-up to the cruise and activities themselves, everything was well planned and fun. The food was amazing, they are very thoughtful regarding food allergies and food options like vegetarians. Special thanks to our guides Tom Cruise and Bruce Lee haha. Ha Long Bay was beautiful! 10/10 recommend

I went with my partner, and we enjoyed this trip! Maddie from SST Travel agency was communicative, and all the drivers/guides reached out to me in advance so we had seamless transfers. We really enjoyed the second day in Ninh Binh, our stay at Tam Coc Centre Luxury Hotel, and the overnight cruise on the Halora Nova. Some events are not included (additional 550K VND/person required, cash), and I had a poor experience on the Tam Coc Bich Dong boat trip. Bai Dinh Pagoda and the Trang An boat trip with our fun tour guide Lan (from Go Easy) made up for the first day. Would recommend!

we had a wonderful time on this cruise. great food and fantastic service especially from the tour guide Hung "Kevin" . he was super friendly and kept everything moving and organized.. it was a very relaxing cruise in a beautiful part of the world. ps. do take the chance to go for a swim.
