Great trip - Fantastic tour! Our guide was great at pointing out different interests including wildlife and local traditions. We went on this tour in torrential rain and thunderstorms but was still one of the highlights of our trip!

Wonderful experience! Would 100% do it again! - AMAZING experience altogether! We had little time (only the first part of the day) for this, but Tim managed to show us the best there is out of Lan Ha Bay! My girlfriend and I were lucky to be the only ones on the Kayaking tour, so we could set the pace however we liked. Lan Ha Bay is a beautiful, uncrowded place with great scenery, floating villages and very interesting history! Lunch in the floating village was probably the best food we've had in Vietnam, so it's a must! Thanks Tim and Langur's Adventures for finding a way to accomodate our needs and for one of the most beautiful experiences we've had in Vietnam!

Absolutely nailed it- stellar time! - If you are headed to Cat Ba- do yourself a favor and head to Langur's Adventures! We are absolutely the type of people to do things ourselves, but we couldn't have been happier that we reached into our pockets and spent money to do this kayaking trip. The Langur's team is knowledgable, friendly, helpful, and super keen on making sure you have a rad day out on the water. They all love their jobs and it shows. We had the pleasure of being out on the water with Archie and Claire and they absolutely crushed it from A to Z. Not only were they a blast to be with but also extremely accommodating and attentive. Of course would recommend both of them to anyone, but I am sure you will be in great hands with who ever is your guide through Langur's. We were able interact with multiple employees and they all were great! Also the locals that assist with the tour were very nice as well!! The day ran smoothly, we did not have to worry about anything, the scenery is amazing, and to top it off lunch was soooooo good!! The boat itself and the kayaks are all in really good condition as well 👌🏽 Thanks Langur's for a jammin day- you truly have something great going on and I highly I highly recommend to anyone of all ages!

Great Trip! Would recommend to a friend. - I went on the kayaking tour of Lan Ha Bay back in November. Our tour guide Archie was lovely, super helpful and friendly and such a nice guy. We really enjoyed his story telling about the history and the "legends" of Lan Ha bay. He gave us great advice about the rest of our travels to and recommended the Ha Giang loop, which was incredible and we might not have gone if it wasn't for him. It was such a nice day kayaking around and he made the experience relaxed and very positive and enjoyable. Also the lunch on the boat in the middle of the day was super tasty and had good vegetarian options. Thank you.

Fun 3 days in Cat Ba with Langur Adventures! - Did 3 tours with langur adventures - Rock Climbing, Full Day Christmas Kayaking and Hiking around Cat Ba National Park. All great things to say about this company and the people who work here. Such great customer care and service. The guides - Steven, Val, Archie, Esther were all super friendly and very helpful. The lunch provided on all 3 days was super delicious with plenty of vegetarian options. I had no prior experience as a rock climber but they made me feel super comfortable and talked me through the entire process. The kayaking trip was also really enjoyable, a full day of exploring the bay, crawling through caves and finding secret lagoons! We were lucky to get some sun and great weather! Best way to spend Christmas! The full day hiking tour was beautiful as well. Exploring the national park and then getting on bikes after a great lunch and finishing with a boat ride in the bay. Even as a solo traveller you meet wonderful people in the groups and since they're small it feels more personalised. The guides also give great food recommendations!

Kayaking Tour - A group of us signed up for this tour on a whim and and it ended up being our favorite expedience on the island. We had lunch on a boat with great views from the rooftop. Steven was an amazing tour guide and brought us out to a hidden lagoon - he kept to our schedule while giving us the room to have a say in what we saw. Definitely recommend booking a tour with them. The office is located on the main road and I found myself pooping in often with extra questions even after the excursion. Archie was usually there and incredibly helpful with both tour questions and general island tips and recommendations.

Kayaking around Lan Ha Bay - A full day of kayaking seemed a lot, but it was so much fun. Half day was about the floating villages and the other half (after a delicious lunch on the boat) was about the caves and the nature! Big shout out to our tour guide Esther!
