The cruise and staff deserves a 5 Star rating . The cruise was well organized from beginning to end. Our cabin was clean and comfortable. The food was excellent and the staff attentive and friendly at all times.
On a different note I would like to add how disappointed I was seeing all the rubbish floating along our cruise through Halong Bay, I have never seen so much trash in the ocean . I would like to urge all tour companies and the government of Vietnam to do something about the pollution of this magnificent landscape, otherwise it will no longer be a tourist attraction!

Crowded, the name cruise is misleading. You pick up your boat in Ha Long port and motor for 45 mins and then moor up surrounded by 70 other boats. From there you are taken to a near by island to sit on a beach with thousands of other people. The cruise is neither luxurious or exclusive. There is minimal safety breifing and no sharing of information about a Unesco World heritage site. The tour companies are just taking advantage of tourists in an almost factory like way. I would not recommend this cruise. I feel like I was ripped off. It was meant to be a 3 day two night cruise but it is more like a 2 day two night cruise. The third day you are in harbour and off the boat before 10:30am. The crew only really start to pay attention to you once you complain to the tour manger about the non existsnt service. Luxury cruise but takes traking down 3 crew members at 5pm for a refreshing beverage and waiting 30minutes even though you are at the bar.
Other passenges and ourselves were agog at the barman siting in a swing chair on his phone until you approached him for a drink.
Not what we perseved as Luxury cruise.
On our day trip a couple were left behind. The boat had to turn around and go back for them.
The plastic and rubbbish in the sea is heart breaking. Such an awe inspiring geological wonder but the sea is full of plastic waste, pearl farm debris and huge polystyrene boxes, just floating past as you kayak around the area.
I think with some small tweaks things could be much much improved.

This is an excellent cruise!
A must while in Vietnam. I would highly recommend the 2 night tour as you get to see a whole lot more of Halong Bay, especially in some less touristy areas.
Excellent boat, great tours, excellent food and lots of it! Also great tour guides and staff.
I would highly recommend this tour.

Buyer beware, if you are like me you are likely so excited to go to Ha Long Bay and it truly is stunning. But be careful. I booked through Viator as I have used them multiple times and wanted a reputable company for this trip. I spent hours and hours looking for the perfect cruise, comparing boats, rooms, excursions etc. They didn’t put me on the boat in my booking. I found out the second I was physically on the boat and we were pulling out of port. I let the boat manager know right away, showed him the images and booking confirmation and he confirmed the boat in the pictures wasn’t the boat I was on. There was nothing they could do as the boat was filled and all ready at sea. Our room was disappointing at best. The crew tried their best but there was little they could do.
All the historical sites you visit are overpacked, if you aren’t a savvy traveller I wouldn’t recommend as the crowds are very overwhelming and I am a seasoned traveller. The water is also filled with garbage, the worst I’ve ever seen, you can also see boats dumping sewage in the port, so don’t go in the water., kayaking was nice, minus the garbage.
I would also think of the boat as a floating hotel, you are only on it overnight, and the majority of the time you are actually on smaller day boats, this cruise should really be labeled a floating hotel, you will spend the majority of your time on tiny diesel soaked vessels. If you are sensitive to smell - also keep this in mind the fumes are very strong.
NOW all things aside it is beautiful, but I would recommend not spending time choosing a boat because it isn’t guaranteed anyway, lower any and all expectations and when you ask @Viator for help in this situations they will decline your request and say there is anything they can do.
Final recommendation, book a day cruise.
Summary: I made my complaint within the first 15 minutes of the cruise, we had already pulled away, I followed up with Viator following for a refund, sharing all the details and again… they did nothing.
This was not the fault of the crew who really tied to do all they could.

Chinh and Ha made us feel like family. They went the extra mile to make us feel safe and have an incredible experience on the Halong Bay Cruise. There was a lot of delicious variety of food. Activities were planned for the day. Staff were friendly and attentive. My boyfriend Andy learned that I am the boss!!! Thank you Chinh:) This cruise was one of my favorite part of our trip.

Excellent service from staff and great food. The staff on the boat could not do more for you. Activities were nice with great views. Unfortunately the weather was not great when we visited, I thought the activities could have flexed to the weather ie shorter boat tours and other indoor activities. Although, I suppose the weather is nice most of the time 😂. The activities are also very early in the morning so be prepared for an early start!
Would 100% recommend for couples or families.
