If you want no crowd, go for this tour! - 10/10 super amazing experience. Beyond you can ask for. Extremely well organized and our guide Binh was super knowledgeable and enthusiastic in showing us around and sharing his knowledge! Got some amazing surprises like cable car ride and serene view! Must go if you travel to Hanoi

Cat Ba cruise - not to be missed - This was such a great trip. It had an early start - it was well worth it. Binh/Billy the co-ordinator provided excellent commentary. Once we had collected all the guests we travelled for about 90 minutes before stopping for a toilet break and refreshments (own expense). After a further 30 minute ride in the very comfortable air conditioned coach, we were given a surprise transfer to Cat Ba island by cable car. Usually the transfer is by boat. Another coach drove us to where the boat was. We had a decent size hot lunch while going around the coast. We then did a electric car tour to the local village where you could have your feet cleaned by hundreds of little fish. It was optional to cycle around the village. We then took the electric car back to the boat and travelled around the rocky outcrops before stopping for guests to try kayaking around the bay. We then packed up and moved on a bit further before stopping for guests to jump off the boat/slide into the water for a swim. After that we had 'afternoon tea' on board and cruised back to the bus. We then made our way to a small boat to transfer back to the mainland. The coach then drove us for about 90 minutes before we stopped for refreshments (own cost) and a toilet break. After about another 30-40 minutes we were delivered back to our starting point. We are in the age group 59-62. The whole day was really well organised. The scenery is lovely on the cruise and we only saw about 7 other cruise boats. It's not crowded like Halong Bay which I believe has several hundred. The scenery appears to be similar. We got back to our hotel about 9pm

Nice trip - Trip was excellent. The programme was diverse (biking on Cat Ba countryside, kayaking & swimming in Lan Ha Bay). Also very friendly staff. Would recommend!

Not to be missed - Well organised tour. Felt very relaxed and safe. Food on the Serenity Cruise boat was excellent. Would recommend this tour.

Ditch Halong Bay, for Cat Ba - Absolutely amazing trip, highly recommend you opting for this one above the crowded Halong Bay trip. You will not regret, take my word for it!

The amazing experience and they offer a lot of good activites with an excellent people - The trip was amazing the guid was super nice and good with everything, very helpful nature and helped us with a lot of things including cabs, transport and eating, the food was amazing with a great taste and good quality

Perfect day trip to cat ba - Amazing trip. Everything including transfer, tour guide, food and cruise was beyond exceptional. Must try. We explored caves,beaches, kayaking and cycling through national park. Couldn't have asked for more.

Ahhhh the serenity - The pick up was floorless, Mr driver Binh 2 was excellent, the bus comfortable & smooth. Our guide Binh 1 ( Billy ) is helpful & knowledgeable ,he taught us some Vietnamese. The food was delicious, the facilities on the boat were good. All boat staff (serenity cruise) was polite & helpful. They do have towels for swimming. We loved the kayaking and biking. Both were not hard and the scenery fantastic. Great cruise for being alone as not many cruise boats around this area, very quiet Ahhh the serenity 🩵 Just an FYI there are a couple of transfers of boats & bus' to get to Cat Ba island & boat aged from photos but still nice and comfortable.But no drama as it's all part of the experience. Thank you Binh 1 & Binh 2
