Things to do in Poem Mountain

A day trip to Ha Long Bay truly lives up to its reputation as "Guilin on the Sea"! 🌊 We departed from Hanoi in the morning, and the drive was about 2.5 hours. Although it was a bit far, seeing the emerald green water and thousands of limestone islands made it all worthwhile. Cruising among the islands felt like stepping into a traditional Chinese ink painting. For lunch, we enjoyed a seafood meal on the boat; the food was decent, but dining with the sea breeze was incredibly pleasant. The biggest highlights were kayaking and exploring the caves, where the water was so clear you could see the bottom. We climbed over 400 steps on Ti Top Island, and the panoramic view of Ha Long Bay from the summit was truly breathtaking. The day trip was indeed a bit rushed, so if possible, I'd recommend staying overnight. However, for a short experience, it offers great value for money, and I highly recommend it! Our guide, Johnny, was enthusiastic, thoughtful, and meticulous in his service – highly commendable.

Vincent was kind, humorous, and a really fun guide. He also took great photos for us. The tour required a bit of physical stamina, but it was packed with sightseeing spots, activities, and great meals. I'd definitely recommend it to my friends.

Great experience and wonderful Journey.. Plenty of vegetarian Indian food options also. It's a proper cruise and better than other companies. Worth every penny. The staff Tonyy is very nice and polite.

Due to the storm, our tour was rescheduled for a few days later. The tour itself was wonderful. The children were absolutely delighted and wanted to go again. We also really liked our guide, Tinh. Special thanks to him for taking beautiful photos of our entire family.

We were picked up at the hotel on the day of the tour, and the entire experience was extremely satisfying! We participated in mid-October, and thanks to the wonderful weather, Ha Long Bay was stunningly beautiful—many times more so than we could have imagined. In particular, the stairs on Titov Island are tougher than expected and you will work up a sweat (I climbed them in sandals). Older guests were climbing them too, so it should generally be fine, but it's best to be mindful of your footwear and take precautions against heatstroke. Our guide was cheerful, kept the mood lively, and entertained us the whole time with clear and easy-to-understand explanations. Although there are some low reviews, if you join with a mindset of "let's have fun!," this is a wonderful tour that will undoubtedly become your best memory.

I had a great experience with Diamond cruise, the foods are delicious and Henry is really kind in guiding us with all the activities along with Tony as well. All the staff are very kind too. Definitely will recommend this tour to others ^^

Very good experience with world Guinness Record double decker cabin cable car and giant wheel, thanks

Very friendly staff, decent meal with plenty of choices. It's a shame we left late because of a late-running group. Otherwise, it was a lovely experience.

I signed up after watching a video by a certain YouTuber I like (lol). I was guided by Mr. Nagatomo (TIEN), the same person from the video, and I had a great time throughout. Lunch was very satisfying, with plenty of dishes and generous portions. Also, as noted in the precautions, plastic bottles are not allowed in Ha Long Bay, and since it was a hot day, I bought canned water several times on the boat, but it was expensive, so I highly recommend bringing your own drinks in a reusable water bottle. For the dinner-included plan, they took me to a Vietnamese sticky rice restaurant, and it was delicious! I apologize for being selfish when everyone else had bun cha! lol It was a wonderful experience. Thank you very much.
