It was a great experience with our tour guide Vincent. Good sense of humour and kept things interesting Had a great time at the Diamond Era Cruise. Will recommend friends and family
From start to finish , the tour was smooth and enjoyable. It was one authentic experience . Our tour guide Vincent was the best, he was very attentive to our needs, very well versed with his literature and very funny . He deserves a 5 star…
Our trip was completely unforgettable, and that is almost entirely thanks to our guide, Vincent! From start to finish, Vincent went above and beyond to deliver top-notch, seamless service, showing us all the best spots while making sure everyone had an absolute blast. He is fun, attentive, and genuinely made our trip one of a kind. Thanks, Vincent! You're a Monkey (legend) !🤭
It was wonderful experience for me. Perfect day tour from hanoi. From pickup everything was taken care from our awesome guide Richie. He made sure we enjoyed our day. Thank you Richiee!

Good experience. Our Tour Guide: Tom, is very accommodating
The trip was very wonderful and out tourguide eden speaks clearly and gives concise intructions and brief history wherever we go, Highly recommended
Eden is really great. He organized the trip very well and smooth.
Everything was nice i did yoga inside the cave Eden was nice guide
Amazing experience - it was an excellent service from the minute we were picked up at our hotel until we arrived back in Hanoi. The boat was lovely, and we had a great buffet lunch with some chill time as we went out to the bay. We then visited an island and two caves during the day trip. We also did the optional speedboat trip and I would highly recommend it. Our tour guide, Richie, was absolutely incredible - very knowledgeable, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. We were very lucky to have him as our guide. If you’re in Vietnam, definitely do this!
It was an amazing experience. Had a great time with Richie, the tour guide. :)
The trip was awesome , quite comfortable and worth the money . Richie was our guide for the tour and he was the best we could have asked . He made our trip fun and informative and we never felt out of place

This tour was amazing! Our guide Tom went above and beyond in organizing and making the tour memorable! Thanks again
When booking this trip as a group of 3 we knew what to expect to an extent. We were limited for time and couldn’t do an overnight stay in the bay but still wanted a whistlestop tour of some landmarks. Pick up was easy at the opera house and we paid extra for the limo which had extra leg room and comfortable. My main issue with all similar tours and this one is the stops and parading through basically a manufactured buy our products experience. I understand the rules regarding drivers needing a rest that is fine and also that probably helps to keep trip prices lower you take us to these places with the hopes of us buying something but god it really does ruin the experience. We didn’t watch the silk demonstration and moved as quick as we could through the ikea like line of silk products. If I wanted to buy these products, I would not do it on a tour, I would research local suppliers and go through the process. The boat itself is clean and lovely. The food was buffet style nothing to write home about but edible. Given the price it was reasonable. Good drink options on the bar and the tour guides were friendly. Each stop was nice if a little overcrowded (again knew to expect this with a day trip). Really enjoyed kayaking just wish I could have done it for longer. In the afternoon before we got off the boat we were encouraged to go to the top deck and watch the sunset views. This initially was so relaxing and as a UNESCO site we just wanted to enjoy the beauty. But then the loudest volume carnival style techno/DNB music was put on full blast. Why???? You don’t need to do this, the location speaks for itself. We asked to turn it down but it was still so loud we had to go down a deck. Really off putting and unnecessary. It’s what you pay for which I am fine with but please put the silk shop in the itinerary for transparency and don’t play that music in the evening, just something relaxing. It’s not a party boat lol
