What travellers say
Selected reviews from our guests on GetYourGuide and Booking.com.
I would highly recommend this tour!! The day boat was the perfect amount of time to see ha long bay & there was lots of activities included. The food was great throughout the trip, both on the boat and the meal & breakfast included on Cat Ba island. Transportation was very well organised & stress free. Admin were easily contactable for any enquiries & I felt that the staff really went above and beyond to ensure we all had a great time! They gave great recommendations for the free time in Cat Ba island which were really worth the visit! As a solo female traveler I felt safe for the duration of the trip. I would definitely rebook if I return in the future!
