Exactly what we were looking for! - Beautiful scenery, serene water, and the perfect pace for a day of kayaking. It was like we were the only ones in the bay. Our guide was easy going, helpful, and really left the schedule up to us.

Must-do in Vietnam - My friend and I decided to book a trip via Cat Ba Kayak Adventures because we wanted to visit the beautiful scenery of Halong Bay but escape the mass of tourists and cruise ships. And we weren‘t disapppointed! We spent two amazing days in Cat Ba kayaking, shipping around on a small boat and swimming. It was a very private tour as we were the only two participants. Our guide was just awesome - he told us everything about the locals, the nature and the live in Cat Ba. And he let us enough time for sightseeing and developing the caves, so there was no time pressure at all as we have seen it with other suppliers. Besides, the floating homestay is the most beautiful homestay I‘ve ever seen and the food was delicious. In total, everything was organized from the pick up from the hotel to the end and they even arranged that we could stay one more night because we just didn‘t want to leave this beautiful spot. What can I say more? Book it now! For my friend and I, it was a perfect tour and one of our highlights in Vietnam. It‘s worth every penny when you are looking for peace and Amazon nature scenery.

Best day of my vacation - Best day of my vacation. Staying on the houseboat was amazing. The host was very gracious and kept us well fed with delicious meals. The kayaking was superb. There were times we were the only ones in the water except for a few local fishermen. This is definitely the way to see Lan Ha Bay.

Great tour of the bay! - My girlfriend and I had a fantastic time on this kayak trip. It was a lovely tour of the bay featuring beautiful views and a great paddle. It was also a very reasonable price for the two of us to have a private guided tour for the whole day. Our tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable and shared a lot about the bay, it really added to the experience. The lunch on the floating home was also delicious, and they accommodated a vegetarian meal for us. I would certainly recommend this trip to a friend.
