Hercules Grand Luxury Day Cruise: Ha Long Bay, Sung Sot, Ti Top

Teimme retken 14. heinäkuuta 2026 ja rakastimme Hercules Grand Luxury Day Cruise -risteilyn palvelua ja laatua Ha Longin lahdella. Olimme jo Ha Longissa, joten tapaaminen oli klo 11.10. Nam, matkaoppaamme, oli viestinnällinen koko prosessin ajan. Hän oli asiantunteva kaikista pysähdyksistämme ja otti mielellään kuviamme. Ruoka oli monipuolista ja laadukasta; heillä oli ainutlaatuisia ruokia, kuten meduusasalaattia. Vene oli uusi ja puhdas. Oli rentouttavaa nauttia porealtaasta matkan jälkeen. Heillä oli myös tilava yläkerran oleskelualue, josta voi nauttia koko Ha Longin maisemista. Toiminta jokaisella pysähdyksellä oli erittäin hauskaa. Rakastin melontaa, sillä pääsimme näkemään apinoita. Ne olivat niin söpöjä ja erittäin vuorovaikutteisia ihmisten kanssa, koska niillä oli ruokaa annettavaksi. Oli hämmästyttävää nähdä villieläimiä läheltä. Luola oli toinen upea hetki, en edes odottanut sen olevan niin valtava. Se oli valtava. 400 askelman kiipeäminen oli täysin sen arvoista. Kiitos Herculesin miehistölle ja oppaille!

A thoroughly enjoyed day trip, thanks a lot Klook and Jason for wonderfully managing this entire trip. The cruise is brand new, clean and very well managed, polite staff and tasty food. The booking was smooth, limousine picked us up right in time, extremely comfortable ride. We did the bamboo boat ride and the caves were just amazing, do note there are over 400 steps to be covered, but absolutely worth. Island was a bit crowded though. We were also served evening tea and snacks and wrapped up our day on time.

導遊Jason非常的親切，講解了很多故事，照顧我們的需求、聊天並幫大家拍照。強烈推薦參加這個行程，不僅是郵輪很高級、很新，而且很穩，午餐buffet 也很棒還有烤生蠔能吃，下午活動結束也有點心跟水果，其中一個自費行程是坐遊艇遊覽，我建議一定要選這個自費行程，因為很值得、可以看到很多很美的景！除了去下龍灣，還去了很大的驚奇洞，不要待在船上，驚奇洞的階梯不多、很容易攀爬，一定要去看看這個法國人跟著猴子發現的洞穴～

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Best Ha Long Bay day trip. The whole experience was smooth from start to finish. The tour company contacted me via WhatsApp in advance, and the guide confirmed pickup details the night before. Pickup was punctual, and the bus was comfortable with spacious, reclinable seats. Special shoutout to our guide, Henry, he was funny, helpful, and knowledgeable. The cruise was clean and spacious, with pre-arranged dining seats, so everything was well-organized. The buffet lunch was delicious, but drinks are not included (including water). Itinerary: Ti Top Island, Luon Cave, Sung Sot Cave. At Luon Cave, I chose the speed boat (300,000 VND/pax), it was fun and went much further out in the bay, and the guide shared insights along the way. Kayak (will get wet) and bamboo boat (won’t) go under the cave, but I didn’t regret my choice. Shower facilities and towels are provided onboard. The cruise is quite new (~3 months), so fewer reviews, but definitely worth booking!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing experience with Hercules Grand Cruise! The boat was beautiful, clean, and comfortable, with breathtaking views of Ha Long Bay. The buffet lunch was delicious, and the staff were friendly and attentive throughout the trip. Special thanks to our tour guide, Mr. Nam, for being friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful, and for making the experience even more enjoyable. Everything was well-organized, from the activities to the service. Definitely one of the highlights of our Vietnam trip and highly recommended! 🇻🇳✨

This excursion was nothing short ord amazing! I will probably rave about it to anyone willing to listen for the next few weeks! The boat cruise is as represented in the pictures on here. Luxurious, large and clean. The tour guide (Henry) is well informed on the history and current information on Vietnam, as well as on the different sites you visit. He is polite and very helpful. As an English tourist, I have to commend his fluency. The staff on the cruise is efficient and friendly. The food was delicious- probably the best I have had on my trip so far. All the locations were well organised. The staff members at all points (bus, on the cruise and at the stops) were very kind and friendly. If you are a solo traveler, the staff is more that happy to take your pictures onboard and off. This was an experience of a lifetime. Thank you to everyone involved in the process and hope you keep up the stellar work for other tourists.

5月2日に1人で参加しました。ガイドのNamさんはとても親切で、気遣いの言葉をたくさんかけていただきました。ベトナムの歴史、ハロン湾の歴史、洞窟の説明も十分な内容で、指示も的確で分かりやすかったです。明瞭な英語を話すので少しでも英語がわかる方はこちらのツアーでも楽しめると思います。ドライバーの運転も丁寧でした。リムジンバスの車内は綺麗で、各座席に充電できる差し込み口がありました。(USB, Type-C両方あり)クルーズの前に真珠の養殖場に立ち寄り、指輪などの購入も可能です。クルーズ船は別のツアー客も一緒に乗船し、同じ料理(ビュッフェ)が提供されます。料理は全て美味しかったです。ドリンクは有料で、店で買うより高く感じました。ティートップ島の頂上に続く階段は急で狭いので、登る人は気をつけてください。ガイドをはじめ、全てが最高でした。最後に、ガイドのNamさん、お世話になりました。

Great activity to do when you're in Hanoi, the whole tour was a cool experience. However, the lunch buffet is just so-so and the drinks require payment, even the water isn't free. The afternoon tea and snacks were a nice touch. Stops are crowded, seems like the government isn't into crowd control in the islands and just wants money, nature is already suffering. Regardless, the ship is new and very clean, pristine condition compared to the other ships there. Our guide Jayson was also nice and helpful btw. Bus dropped us off back at old quarter at around 8:30pm ish.

New spacious ship with modern amenities. The dining area is clean and the jacuzzi is a nice inclusion. The staff on the ship were attentive and polite. The scenery was amazing and the activities planned (banana boat and cave visit) were really enjoyable. The tour guide (Nam) was very sincere and polite. He cares for his passengers and took effort to explain the history of Hanoi and the facts about Halong Bay. He also provided humorous commentary in the cave. Overall, a really enjoyable itinerary that was not too rushed. Good job to the staff and tour guide for Hercules GRAND!

Highly recommended. The Hercules Grand Luxury day cruise is definitely one of the highlights of my trip. The boat is pretty new, clean and elegant. Service was great. Buffet lunch was delicious with varieties. The tour didn't feel rushed as I was able to enjoy every location we stopped at, as well as relax on a sunbed at the boat's rooftop. Special thanks to our energetic tour guide, MR. HENRY. He's the best! Everything was was well organized and everyone was taken care of, considering we were a big group. He's also knowledgeable - I've learned much about Vietnam's history & relevant infos as he shared on our way to the port. No dull moment. The hotel pick-up & drop-off were seamless. Halong Bay is breathtaking. The Sung Sot Cave was a bit of a climb but worth it. We explored the Luon Cave and were given the options to ride a wooden bamboo boat or a speedboat or do kayaking. I opted for a wooden boat for a "chill vibe" ride. I truly had a great time.
