5Such a nice day
It was such a really good experience! And Tiger was super cheerful and nice all the day and explanied us lots of things. Very helpful with pick up and drop off even waited for me! Thank you!
5Nice day trip
The day trip was very nice, we had time to kayak, swim in the Bay and visit fishermen village ! I highly recommend especially our guide Bing who teach us a lot about fishermen daily life.
5Best tour we did in Vietnam
The day trip was fabulous value for money. The staff were lovely and Bing was a wonderful tour guide who grew up in a floating fishing village and had lots of personal perspectives to share. A highlight was spotting the critically endangered Cat Ba Langur on one of the karsts while kayaking. The variety of the boat ride through Lan Ha Bay, kayaking through tunnels in the karst, swimming to a secluded sandy beach and visiting a fish farm made the trip memorable. The abundant banquet lunch included squid, fish, tofu and vegetables and was delicious and filling. We were extremely happy with our choice to do this tour and highly recommend it. It was one of the cheapest on offer and amazing value.
5Amazing day in Halong bay
Excellent tour about 8 hours. The guide was very good and helpful.
5Magical day
The day was perfect ! The lunch was really good and there was a lot of food. The only « bad » point was the stop at fishing village, where the fish was in a little space. We did’nt have understand why they keep them heer.
5Awsome
The tour was absolutely amazing! Our guide was incredibly friendly and helpful. He joked with us, shared his personal story, and made the whole experience feel very special and memorable. His English was excellent — very clear and easy to understand throughout the entire tour. We joined the one-day tour to see the bioluminescent plankton, and we were lucky enough to see them. It was truly magical and an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!
