We had time to visit every spot and to book others activities
Book this tour was the right choice because it´s a really nice boat for only a few people. We had time to visit every spot and to book others activities such as speedboat to discover the island where the movie Kong was filmed. Our guide Kong was the best!

Tour very well organized...
Tour very well organized even though we had a change of ship, they advised us of the new meeting address without starting it would be another ship. But overall, the carnival, the Amethyst or the one we had the casta daily are of the same build and model. Just not enough people to départ the three ship. Our guide Duc was amazing and took very well care of every one on board, even with the activities, except of course the 427 stairs to climb Ti Top Island with a reason! The ship staff also amazing and willing to help with a smile. Our group of 3 all appreciated and strongly recommend these tour.

An Unforgettable Experience Thanks to Hien
We had the absolute pleasure of having Hien as our guide, and he truly made our excursion unforgettable. He was incredibly kind, gentle, and so knowledgeable about everything we saw and learned.
Hien explained things clearly, answered all our questions with patience, and made sure everyone felt comfortable and included. His passion and professionalism really showed, and it made the entire experience even more special.
I can’t recommend him enough — he made our day amazing. Thank you, Hien!

Fun experience for the whole family!
Very fun experience for the whole family. The catamaran ride was very smooth. Staff and food are excellent. The journey and activities were well planned such that the day excursion went by in a jiffy. Loved the views, water activities, and the facilities (clean and elegant).

Excellent tour lead by Ken, an energetic and professional guide.
The one day tour was well organized with a smoth transportation (even though it took many hours) from Hanoi to Ha Long Bay and back. The tour guide Ken was energetic and hade a lot of interesting information that he shared with us about the places we visited. Ken took good care of our group of 36 people. The best with the tour is first of all the nature and the bay with the limestone islands topped by rainforests The boat was modern and safe and one of the smallest (we were about 90 passagers). This facilitated the boarding and disembarkation during the three stops we had. The lunch was good with with a selection of seafood, chicken, rice and other dishes, suitable for everybody (also adapted to food restrictions). Our experince from the three stops is that they are very organised with litle time for own experiences. All the boats, with a lot of people, are coming at the same time. Still, we had fun participating in the activites on the stops but most we enjoyed the nature, the impressive landscape and the caves. We had a very nice day!

Unique tour of Halong Bay by boat
If you are in Halong Bay, everyone should do either a half day or full day tour of the Bay. Visit the limestone pillars, hike to the top of one, explore caves, visit a pearl farm, go on a bamboo boat or kayak and do an optional ride on a speedboat. Maximus travel is great at confirming details with your tourguide the day before so there are no issues with logistics. Highly recommend.

Breath taking
What an amazing day. The entire tour was well planned and executed. From the pick up to drop off there were no wasted time. The boat was clean, the food was amazing and Halong Bay was one of the most beautiful wonders of nature. Viet, the guide, was professional and informative.

Well worth it!
The ship is good, staff super friendly, meal excellent, combo of stops for kayak / boat, cave walk and view climb ending off with sunset 'party' great DJ EDM was so much fun. Best money I spent in Vietnam.
Don't bring plastic water bottles. They will be confiscated. Be prepared to say no to hard sell on pearls and drinks. They bill the latter at the end and can be more than the whole cruise.

This was a great day...
This was a great day spent! The day cruise was the perfect amount of time if staying in Ha long bay. I even booked another day cruise a few days after since it was so lovely! If you like hiking, kayaking, speed boats, bamboo boats and swimming this is the perfect tour for you! I highly recommend it.

Overall a worthwhile tour
Everything with the tour was good, and the sites you see are beautiful! Phong was a good guide; he explained information about Ha Long Bay and Hanoi, and was always clear about logistics (like where we were going and how long it would take to get there). The lunch and snacks provided were delicious. Some of the logistics were unclear from the Viator listing and could have been communicated a little better ahead of time, but the organizers respond very quickly on Whatsapp to all of the questions I had so this wasn’t a problem.

Massage chairs on van to...
Massage chairs on van to boat, perfectly executed experience on a luxurious boat from activity to food to drinks. Plentiful staff willing to help you with anything. Early departure helps avoid all the crowd. It’s like traveling business class for a boat trip! Book this one.

You won't regret this trip!
I had a fantastic time on this trip! Everything was well organized even when it came to the pickup and drop off. The staff was fun and friendly and planned activities. The multi course lunch was a treat and the boat has many viewing areas and hang outs. I give this a 10/10.

Not seeing something you are looking for?
To fully enjoy the emerald waters and towering limestone islands of Halong Bay, it’s best to explore it by boat. Halong Bay day cruises make it easy to experience the UNESCO World Heritage Site and can include transfers from Hanoi, Halong City, or nearby ports. Most cruises, whether by traditional junk boat or luxury ship, include lunch, stops at an island and cave, plus time for kayaking or a bamboo boat excursion—some also wait for the sunset. Cruises to quieter Lan Ha Bay and Bai Tu Long Bay are also an option.
