Cruzeiro Diurno Serenity Grandeur: Baía de Lan Ha e Cat Ba

Great day tour, lots of activities but not too long. Beautiful boat. We are gluten free and had safe food options at the buffet. Our tour guide Billy was amazing and definitely went the extra mile, taking amazing photos of all the guests for us, as well as providing rain coats when we arrived back to a storm in Hanoi! I wish him all the best.

This cruise was the highlight of my trip to Northern Vietnam! The boat is very new and beautiful. Tuna was my guide and he mentioned it only started operating in July 2025 - so less than a year. The food was delicious, and the views of Lan Ha Bay were simply breathtaking. The cruise also included a brief stop at Viet Hai Village, which was quaint and peaceful. We stayed an hour there and were able to ride bicycles around the town. We also had free time to kayak and swim in the bay. There were water slides, a jacuzzi, and a swimming pool too. Overall, I was very satisfied with the cruise and would highly recommend it!

The best tour we have so far in Vietnam! Literally. We had so much fun. The transfer looked complicated (bus-boat-bus-boat-cruise) but it was so smooth. We did not feel the hassle at all. Our tour guide, Binh/Billy was the best. He shared with us the highlights of our trip with a little bit of history. It's interesting and engaging. We could feel how passionate and patient he is in guiding us. And fyi, he's single ;D lol. But yes, will surely recommend this tour to my friends. Thank you so much.

I had a wonderful day with an excellent guide named Son or Sony. He was very helpful, and his English was very good. He guided us all the way from start to finish without any problems. The tour itself was very good and pleasant; the ride, the transfer, and the cruise were all perfect.

Our guide had all the information about every place we visited, from the timing and drop-off points to more informative knowledge about the locations. The trip was very packed, visiting all the itinerary on time. Thanks to our guide for taking good care of the group.

The cruise experience was much more than what the itinerary could explain. The quality of buses for transfer was great and so was our host for the day, BILLY. Loved his sense of humour. The cruise itself felt amazing. It was quite new with utmost cleanliness and all amenities provided. It was not much crowded and had just the right of people on board for a pleasant experience. The other experiences like kayaking and swimming, and cycling elevated the experience manifolds. If you are planning a visit to Hanoi, you should definitely consider going on the Lan Ha Bay One Day Tour with Serenity Cruises.

Our tour guide was Mr. Billy. He was super helpful and made the experience so much better, even caring for our vegetarian needs. Anyone looking for a tour must try Lan Ha Bay with Cat Ba Island; you'll be super lucky if Mr. Billy is your tour guide.

Hands down the best cruise to book, very welcoming and on schedule. Mr Binh navigated us on tour smoothly at every checkpoint. The interiors of the cruise were 5 star, we were a vegetarian group of 4 adults, 3 kids and all of us enjoyed the buffet. Top notch hospitality on serenity grandeur.

Our guide, Ha, was very informative and friendly. We used all modes of transportation for this day tour. We rode a bus from Hanoi to Haiphong, and since it was low tide, we had the opportunity to take the cable car to Cat Ba Island. From Cat Ba Island, we took another bus to the harbor. Then we rode a small boat from the harbor to take us to the cruise. The cruise was stunning and looked very brand new. The crew were very friendly. Cruising along Lan Ha Bay was breathtaking. Although lunch was not a buffet since there were only 35 of us, it was plated but still very good. After lunch, we rode the small boat again to take us to Viet Hai Village, where we rode an electric car to take us to the village. We really enjoyed riding bicycles within the village. It was so peaceful in the village. After that, we rode the small boat back to the cruise to start swimming/kayaking. Then we had afternoon tea with fruits and pastries. Great weather with sun but cool wind. Highly recommend doing this.
