Aurora Day Cruise: Ha Long Bay with Sung Sot & Ti Top

We booked a one-day trip at the last minute and paid through Klook. Soon after, we were contacted by the boat company to confirm the time, pick-up/drop-off location, driver/guide's name, phone number, and vehicle license plate. If you're staying in the Old Quarter, complimentary pick-up and drop-off are provided. The limousine bus arrived on time, was comfortable, had phone chargers, and each person received a small bottle of water. Halfway to the pier, we stopped at a souvenir and food shop before continuing our journey. We arrived at the check-in building at 11:00 AM and waited until 12:00 PM when a staff member brought our tickets and escorted us to the boat. The boat was new and clean. The guide introduced the boat and the program. The food was a buffet and tasted good. Initially, there weren't enough serving utensils, but more were added. The staff on the boat professionally refilled food and cleared used dishes. The only extra cost was for drinks, which we ordered from the bar on board. I liked that the staff didn't pressure us or constantly try to upsell. It felt comfortable. We ended up ordering other drinks after the activities anyway. In the evening, as the sun began to set, music started playing on the deck, and we were invited to go up. The views were great, and the atmosphere was pleasant during the return cruise. Snacks were provided, and there was an opportunity to make our own spring rolls. The female guide and the male staff member with glasses (May 23rd) were very attentive; I can't recall their names. If you're lucky enough not to encounter impolite fellow travelers, this trip will be absolutely perfect.

We had such a wonderful time on our Halong Bay trip with Ms. Violet! She was incredibly helpful, friendly, and attentive throughout the whole trip. She made everything so much easier and enjoyable for us. The place was also very luxurious, cozy, and comfortable. We truly enjoyed every moment of the trip and had an amazing experience. 🥰❤️

It was a bit difficult to find the guide at the meeting point; you really have to pay close attention to the bus name. So far, the trip has been quite enjoyable, and the lunch provided was varied and delicious. The activities offered were also interesting.

I had a wonderful trip with the Halong Aurora Day cruise . The cruise ship was very new and offered a buffet lunch with fresh, delicious food. The staff and Cruise management were friendly and supportive throughout the journey.

This trip was amazing, has so much fun, Andy was a great organizer and tour guide with good english and will follow up on you so you don’t get lost during the trip, highly recommend.

Everything was great, the female tour guide named Hang was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The trip was wonderful and left a very good impression. I will try another trip with Aurora with my family when we have the chance to return to Ha Long.

There were 35 of us in total, including Chinese, Vietnamese, Italian, and French individuals. The lunch was excellent; I had a lot of seafood, as well as hot dishes, salads, and desserts. The food portions were generous. Everyone was very full, and our tour guide spoke good English. The cave tour was great; without a guide, it would have just been an ordinary cave with no 'wow' factor.

thank you for such a great day with the family! Miss Violet you were an amazing host, you made our experience so enjoyable. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

our tour is great . the stop are all friendly and accommodating...i will surely recommend Aurora HaLong Cruise to my relatives and friends

The tour guide was very attentive, helping me on and off the vehicle. Once on the cruise, I enjoyed a delicious buffet and visited three attractions.
