Ha Long Bay cruises

Most Halong Bay cruises claim to be “5-star,” but very few actually deliver. This one genuinely does. From the moment we boarded, everything felt premium, the design of the cruise, the smooth operations and the calm, well organised atmosphere. The cruise stood out so much that people at the bay were stopping to take photos of it. The staff were exceptionally polite, professional and attentive, which made the entire experience completely stress free. The food was excellent, with a great buffet spread and well prepared meals throughout the journey. Activities were well planned and enjoyable. We booked the 2 days / 1 night option but after experiencing the cruise, I honestly wish we had chosen 3 days / 2 nights — that’s how good it was. A special thank you to the team for upgrading my suite to a premium room, which made the stay even more memorable. If you want a cruise that actually lives up to the 5-star label, this is the one. Highly recommended. Love from 🇦🇺

My day voyage on the cruise was the absolute highlight of our Vietnam trip and worth every single penny. From the moment we stepped into our pristine, modern suite with its breathtaking its views of the cruise, the attention to detail was flawless. The onboard amenities—especially the stunning infinity pool felt like a floating five-star resort rather than a standard boat, and the dining exceeded all expectations by beautifully blending local Vietnamese flavors with international cuisine. What truly elevated the experience, however, was the impeccable and warm service from the crew, who anticipated our every need and perfectly organized the kayaking and cave excursions so we could avoid the heavy tourist crowds.

Dont ever skip this trip it was very memorable foods are great, excellent service. The bus is nice & clean but our bus mate Indian people are smells bad odor in their underarm that make us cover our nose because of the crazy smell from them, I am sorry but please Indian people before we went for a joiner trip please use deodorant so that you cannot disturb other people. Using deodorant in our body is also a sign of respect to others.

Diamond Era Cruise was a great experience from start to finish. We were gelt very looked after by our pick up guide, tour bus driver and cruise tour guide Tom! The bay is truly beautiful and the attentive service staff make it a relaxing and unfortgettable experience. I highly recommend this tour.

We highly recommend Dolphin Ha Long Cruise. absolutely 5 star treament - treated like royalty from all the staff - but especially Chris, Andre and our man Jack (never let go) - The amazing Jack Family Tour Guide . The buffet was enormous - variety of everyone. Food was all fresh, beautifully presented and delicious. The excursions were well organised and scenery exceptional. Lastly this cruise ship is pure luxury. We had the best day - thank you to all staff.

We loved everything about this cruise and would highly recommend it to our friends and family! It was our first time in Vietnam and the hospitality from the cruise staff was amazing! Special shout to Alice and Louis for taking care of us during this trip! The room was clean, modern and had all the amenities. Food was always amazing and the excursions and activities were top notch as well! Do not hesitate to book a cruise to Halong Bay with Grand Pioneers!

Went on a trip in December, took it for 2 days, really enjoyed everything, the only thing is that there were a lot of people on the excursions, but it has nothing to do with the operator. The cabins are magnificent, no seasickness, karaoke in the evening for entertainment. The only thing we regretted was not taking it for 3 days and 3 nights.

I had booked two rooms, an oriental cabin and century cabin. Originally I had booked the oriental cabin as I wanted a bathtub with ocean view. I was given 2 century rooms. I requested for a refund from Klook for the difference in the rooms and was provided the refund. We had a vegetarian in the group and the cruise was very accommodating with their meals providing good dishes for every meal. the other members of our group also enjoyed their meals and buffet style food was also very good quality. We especially liked the traditional Vietnamese band that played during the dinner. The locations we visited were a little crowded but definitely worth visiting.
