Great tour, ask for Tony. - Really great experience so fun! We got to see some incredible sights, kayak through some epic caves, and jump off the boat! Couldn't recommend highly enough. Rooms clean and all facilities needed. Toni was our tour guide and he was phenomenal, he really made the tour for us! He answered all of our ecological questions and was very knowledgeable about the areas natural and cultural history. He gave us great stories and talks about Vietnam as a whole as he has lived in both north and south. Toni is excellent, definitely request him for your tour.

Quiet, fantastic well organized tour - It was a very nice and also fun trip, especially with our guide Toni, who was always very attentive and attentive so that we have a perfect experience and are also well looked after, which was also well done ☺️. Overall, this tour is really recommended because the boat sails to little to no frequented areas. We were partly alone, e.g. kayaking in a lagoon, where of course wonderful photos were taken. The food on board is excellent and the cabins very spacious with toilet and shower. We slept wonderfully in calm seas. When my husband had contact with a jellyfish in the water, Toni quickly had the right cream at hand 👍🏻. He also gave us some insight into Vietnamese culture, which was very interesting. In any case, we would do this tour again exactly the same. It was really magically beautiful 🥰.

A nice experience in a beautiful setting! - We enjoyed a 2-day mini cruise. The cruise was in a limited group ( 13 p) and hardly any other boats were present in the area. We could kayak and swim in the lovely water. The food on board was very tasty. We were well guided by our tour leader Ben.

Ben - Absolutely must do when in Vietnam. The scenery is so beautiful, with not many tourists as other places. Some places we were all by ourself. The staff is good, the boat and the bets are very comfortable and the food is delicious. Ben was the best guide we had when in Vietnam. I absolutely recommend this tour!

Superb cruise on Lan Han Bay - Excellent cruise spent with Jack, our guide for these 2 days! Very nice cruise, much less touristic than Halong Bay with breathtaking and magnificent views! We were even treated to a breathtaking sunset (probably one of the best of my life!) The staff was very kind. The rooms are very qualitative, the meals very good. Water is included in the package (which is rare!) and drinks are really cheap. I highly recommend Jack who was kind without name, who took us to beautiful places by kayak (cellar, beach,...)! Special mention for the evening when we were allowed a little history about Vietnam and the different cultures and a fishing party (too bad, it was the full moon and did not sin!) As a bonus: Jack speaks very good English which facilitates exchanges! Thank you for these 2 days! See you soon
