Things to do in Lan Ha Bay

The tour was well planned and managed by the team. There were absolutely no concerns around anything. Everything was on time and as scheduled, and really a wonderful experience exploring the “Cac Ba” and “Lan Ha Bay”. Big shoutout to Billy the tour guide. He has an amazing sense of humour and a very great story teller. He builds the interests and educates you about the place you visit and the Vietnamese culture in a fun and engaging way. He was very helpful throughout the tour with details and help where required.

Mr Binh is very good and he made our trip very comfortable ,communicates well. overall experience with serenity cruise is excellent and i highly recommend it .The food was exellent ,the staff were very good.Instead of going to halong bay ,book a sereneity cruise to lan ha bay and cat ba island .its worth a thousand times.

It’s my first time joining this Ha Long Bay trip, and it was a wonderful experience. The cruise was very comfortable, and the staff member Otis was extremely friendly — thumbs up! 👍

It was really a great and enjoyable and relaxing one day cruise. Would highly recommend, the Guide Bhin is very friendly and funny. Keeps you engaged throughout the trip. The cat ba/lan ha bay is much more calmer and peaceful. Must try the cruise !

Such an amazing experience! The whole day was very well organised and made the experience all the better. Our guide was very helpful, informative and made sure that everyone in the group was looked after. The cruise boat was much more luxurious than I expected and the team onboard were all so wonderful. The itinerary really catered for everyone. I was travelling solo but there were groups of families as well. They even had children’s bikes for cycling around Cat Ba Island. the food was good and well presented. I personally prefer to eat local dishes so it would have been good to include some Vietnamese dishes to the lunch menu. Overall a really great day!

I absolutely loved every moment of this cruise! From the very start, the staff coordinated everything perfectly. The bus pickup was on time, comfortable, and spotlessly clean. Our guide, Binh, was exceptional—friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. He shared fascinating facts, explained all the rules clearly, and made sure everyone felt comfortable. The cruise itself was beautiful, well-maintained, and sparkling clean. The crew onboard were warm, welcoming, and genuinely caring. They took extra care of us during kayaking, making it both safe and fun. With two lovely pools and a water slide, there was never a dull moment! Every detail—from organization to hospitality—was handled with care. This experience exceeded all expectations, and I would highly recommend this day tour to anyone looking for a perfect mix of adventure, relaxation, and world-class service! 🌊🚢✨

We had a great time, very smooth trip and professional hospitality. Best food we have ever had in Cat Ba, the guide (Tony) and his team was very helpful and hand on. Run on time, new car and worry free. Recommend

Our Serenity Cruise tour to Cát Bà Island was absolutely incredible! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized and well-coordinated. The scenery was breathtaking — emerald waters, majestic limestone cliffs, and peaceful hidden lagoons that truly live up to the name “Serenity.” A huge thank you to our tour guide, who made the experience even more special. They were friendly, knowledgeable, and full of positive energy — sharing fascinating stories about the bay, local life, and the islands. They always ensured everyone felt comfortable, safe, and included. The activities were well planned — kayaking through calm waters, exploring the caves, and enjoying a delicious lunch with fresh Vietnamese food on board. Every moment felt smooth, relaxed, and memorable. Highly recommend Serenity Cruise for anyone visiting Cát Bà Island! It’s the perfect blend of nature, adventure, and genuine hospitality. 🌿🚤💚
