Coisas para fazer em Cat Ba National Park

Thank you, serenity for providing us with a beautiful cruise and a great way to end our vacation in Vietnam. Our tour guide Tuna was especially helpful and easy to talk to since he spoke English. He is patient with the non English speakers and answered all our questions. We got to learn a little more about the beautiful country. We had a great time and was able to make new friends because of him.

It's very easy to book on Klook, and you can scan the code directly at the gate without needing to exchange your ticket at the counter.

Hôm nay là một ngày tuyệt vời ở vịnh Lan Hạ khi tôi chọn tour du thuyền Serenity từ điểm đón ở Hà Nội. Họ đã đảm bảo lo liệu mọi thứ còn lại, và hướng dẫn viên Ha-ha rất thú vị.

Lovely day trip. A long day due to travel time there and back, but it was worth it. Nice guide, transport well-arranged and comfortable. The boat was great with lunch, kayaking, swimming, and beautiful surroundings. The golf cart ride across the island to the cave and museum was also very enjoyable. It was pleasant that it was small-scale and not mega-touristy.

great leader with Hai. good communication. good itinerary. great hotel in cat ba. ship was a little dated and needed some love. but great value for money

Best cruise! above my expectation actually. The room and the food was very luxurious. Grateful i chose this cruise for my family trip. and the tour guide was funny (Jack and Jennie). All of the itinerary was amazing, no rushing time, and the best thing was - La Han Bay was not that crowded like Ha Long Bay.

Ha long bay is very nice, staying overnight at boat is a bit boring, not much activity after dinner. Transportation from halong bay to Cat Ba island and back to Hanoi is quite well organised and smooth. The cat ba island trip is not bad, we got a private tour to the cave and national Park. Mr Kia are knowledgeable and his driver are very friendly and approachable.

I had a great experience joining this trip. The tour guide, Mr. Hao (Happy), really left a great impression on me. Just like his nickname, “Happy,” he truly kept everyone’s spirits up, even though it was raining that day. He was enthusiastic, energetic, helpful, cheerful, attentive, and always made sure everyone was having a good time. At first, I was a little disappointed with the weather. It was raining, and I had hoped to enjoy kayaking under the sunshine. However, it turned out to be one of my best memories—the experience of kayaking in the rain was unforgettable. Mr. Happy was always reminding us, “Have fun, don’t get hurt,” and he constantly looked out for everyone’s safety. He also frequently checked on us throughout the trip to make sure we were doing well. The food on the cruise was great as well. Overall, I would rate this experience 9/10. Thank you, Mr. Happy, for making this trip so enjoyable. I hope to see you again someday!

For those of you who are considering a Lan Ha Bay tour, I'd like to share some helpful information! Our itinerary was: hotel pickup -> transfer to the pier -> cruise boarding -> kayaking/swimming -> lunch -> visit to Viet Hai village (doctor fish) -> return to the pier -> hotel drop-off. (Once you board the cruise, an English-speaking guide will explain the itinerary.) For those staying on Cat Ba Island, this is a great way to spend a productive half-day at a low cost. 1) Most of the guests are Vietnamese, but the English-speaking guide makes sure that no one feels left out. 2) Compared to other cruises, the quality is very good, and there's less boat vibration, making it more comfortable. 3) Lunch is buffet-style, and the quality is surprisingly good. 4) There's absolutely no pressure for tips or shopping, so you can just relax and enjoy your day~ Here are a few tips, haha: - It's not primarily for water activities, and the water isn't clear, so snorkeling is practically impossible. It's more for just getting in the water, haha. - Since it's mostly Vietnamese guests, it might feel a bit unfamiliar (frequent smoking on deck, chaotic meal times lol). - It's a different experience from tours arranged by Koreans, which are usually well-developed for tourism, but it's still a decent way to spend a day!
