Must do affordable day trip!!!!

Kalinda_C, Feb 2026

We booked this the night before after looking through so many options and decided on this one as it was the cheapest!!! We were so not expecting all the little luxuries we experienced on this trip, including the very nice bus, boat, lunch, included wine with afternoon tea and the incredible service from especially our guide Brian but also all the staff! We were worried about the weather and amount of other tourists at this time of year however it really didn’t turn out to be an issue. Although it wasn’t clear blue skies we were still in the jacuzzi on the roof and went for a swim on one of the island stops. Overall very happy and would definitely recommend!!

As advertised

Did as advertised. About 40 on our bus when on the boat we had the upper floor & another group had the lower floor. Set meal. (plentiful & delicious), drinks extra if you didn’t want tea. Places visited extremely busy. Bamboo boat ride very short, for cave there are steps up & back, hike up steps also for mounts view(basically one long line of people!) Scenery beautiful. Our guide was knowledgeable & friendly but did go fast so it was difficult to keep up.

Austin was a fabulous...

Austin was a fabulous tour guide. He took us through a whole tour of ha long bay and had an AMAZING sense of humor. So sweet and nice and knowledgeable, and I will be back to ha long bay just because of him!! Book with Austin!
