Trang An Grottoes - Enjoy a sampan ride with a local rower to explore Trang An. Marvel at the stunning Karst landscape, a World Heritage site in Vietnam. After this, we’ll drive to Mua Cave.
The two activities, TRANG AN and TAM COC, are similar: both involve a sampan ride to admire the beauty of karst mountains and caves. The Trang An boat tour lasts 2 hours and 15 minutes and visits 6 caves, while the Tam Coc boat tour lasts 1 hour and 45 minutes and visits 3 caves. Trang An is a newer heritage site, while Tam Coc has been famous for centuries and offers slightly better scenery.

Wonderful Halong bay tour - The tour was great. We had a private boat on our own with guide and other 4 staff. Loved the cave visit and the kayaking. The weather was not warm so we did not swim on the beach but we spent 20 minutes to hike up to the top hill of the island for a wonderful bay view. Magnificent tour and many thanks to David - our guide who did a great job

Great experience! - Lovely stay at the boat visiting various places in the Ha Long bay. Would recommend this to anyone! Was very nice to check some islands around and go with a smaller boat through the cave as well as a guided tour through another cave.

Beautiful scenery - The caves ,cruise and beach were all fantastic. The organisation was chaos, we were abandoned by our guide at the kayaking and had no ticket to enter the kayak area . Took ages to sort out by Vietnamese, English speaking person on our tour.

nightmare - Nightmare. We have been to many places in the world, but we have never seen it so crowded with people and boats. If you want to see the bay in its best light, please watch the James Bond film "Tomorrow Never Dies".
Departure 1 hour late, "tour guide" absolutely incomprehensible (although we can speak English).
The bay is so crowded that we didn't even get off the boat.
There was enough space on the boat itself, the crew went about their business.

Not so great - The whole day was very confusing. We were not treated as we had been on our previous tours. Language barrier and lack of info and direction.

Operator cancelled morning of because we were inconvenient - Do not sign up to this truck!
We had booked the tour for the one full day we were in Halong Bay (from overseas) months prior. At 11pm the night before we were due to tour early the next morning, the operator asked if they could move us to the afternoon, which we could not. When we had gotten ready for the day and were waiting for pick up 20 minutes before departure, our operator cancelled on us with no explanation. We were forced to try and rebook at great cost.
