Good way to tick off some POIs in a short time and in some luxury. - Split into two parts - Day trip to NINH Binh with Guide Henry was excellent - efficient and well managed. Henry was funny and knowledgable. The 5 star cruise was excellent with a nice intimate boat - around 18 rooms were booked. But taking into account the travelling I think 2 nights on the boat would be a better option to try all activities etc but still enjoy the cruise. The food was extremely good. Dong the cruise manager was excellent too and nothing was too much hassle.

Life changing cruise - Everything about the trip was STUNNING. We came for our honeymoon and were blown away by how incredible the whole experience was. The ship is pure luxury and the staff were incredible throughout the trip, especially Dong who was always on hand to help us with anything we needed. We will tell everyone to do this cruise!

All right. - Very well organized trip. Super comfortable bus. Although 4 hours without break from Ninh Binh to Ha Long is not normal! Little misunderstanding about the first night, we had asked for an upgrade 2 months in advance for the Galaxy hotel but they didn’t want to separate us from the group for logistical reasons... I don’t understand, if they knew in advance that they didn’t want it you should have said it from the moment you took the reservation! It is not very correct not to keep his word. My wife wanted a private room so I don’t see the problem with us having it... in short apart from that thankfully first top hotel. The dinner in the evening was good but we had to share dishes with strangers on a table which is quite curious. Not really privacy. This kind of stay should not be for our age. We are asked to be friends with everyone when we want the opposite. Have a good time as a couple, without necessarily having to chat with others. Fortunately the second part of the stay on the boat was more intimate on this side. The room of the boat was superb, the meals hearty and delicious. The staff on board with care and care to be perfect. There is nothing to say. For the excursion and visit part we loved it. Ninh Binh especially, the temples, the exceptional boat ride a unique moment of life and finally the great panoramic view. As for Lan Ha bay it was very nice although far too crowded. It’s quite terrifying the world there is everywhere, it’s difficult to take a natural photo without boats or anyone around. Finally my favorite moment was at sunrise, alone facing the sea and the fullness of silence. I'm starting this trip again but be fit and sociable!
