This cruise ship is really new! Both the rooms and public areas are new, clean, and comfortable! It's a pity the weather wasn't great, but we still enjoyed the cruise, even though we didn't get to go canoeing… Because it rained in the morning, we chose to spend the last few hours in our rooms. Also, the waiting area is separate, and I don't know if they were waiting for a whole tour group that day, but we ended up waiting there for a long time before departure…
Ha Long Bay is truly beautiful and unique! It's a scenic spot definitely worth visiting. Our guide, Lucky, was a very nice person. He was always willing to help with any questions we had, and he explained the itinerary in great detail. The most fun and interesting part of the trip was riding a bamboo raft through the floating caves. There were two options: bamboo raft or canoe. We chose the bamboo raft, and it was really fun watching the canoes bump into each other! If you have the stamina, you can try canoeing. The Surprise Cave is a cool natural wonder; it feels like a movie scene, like you're on a treasure hunt. It's definitely worth exploring. Overall, the experience was great. There was lunch and afternoon tea included, and the guide's itinerary was perfect and fulfilling. Transportation was very convenient; as long as your accommodation was within the pick-up and drop-off area, you could provide them with the information in advance, and they would contact you the day before. They would pick you up early on the day of the tour and take you back to your hotel after the tour.
