In the past, when French tourists visited Sung Sot Cave, they were so amazed by the majestic beauty and the huge expansion of the area (about 10,000 m2 in width) that somebody exclaimed “Grotto des Surprises”, which means a cave of the surprising things. From that time, the cave has been called as Sung Sot Cave (Surprising Cave).

Scenic and Well-Paced Tour - This tour is perfect for those seeking adventure at a comfortable pace. The drive itself was a highlight, offering stunning views from the window. However, the second and third days involve many twists and turns through the mountains, which might be challenging for those prone to car sickness. Overall, my husband and I were very pleased with the experience and would definitely use this company again in the future.

Great day! - I had a great time on this trip despite it being a very long day (approx 3 hour drive each way from Hanoi). The lunch provided was a great selection. On the way back I was dropped near the hotel to find my own way but as I’d only arrived the night before I didn’t know where to go so that was frustrating but I appreciate the buses don’t fit down the smaller streets.

Memorable cruise - I liked the fact that we were contacted via WhatsApp before the trip to be reminded were and what time we will be picked up. The food was excellent and we just loved sunset party. The guide was doing his best, but his English was hard to understand.

Enjoyable Halong Bay Cruise - We had a great time in this Halong Bay Cruise. Nam, the guide, was very knowledgeable and helpful. We had comfortable rides from hotel pick-up to the Cruise ship and back to hotel. We had a blast with the optional speed boat ride which took us much farther than Halong Bay. We visited the majestic and huge Sung Sot Cave and we were very impressed. Ti Top beach is small but it was enough for a short rest. Buffet lunch in the ship was a little chaotic as there was no order in getting food. The life vests that were available for all Halong Bay guests ( not just our group) were old and dirty. Overall, it was a full day of exciting activities.

Long day but has to be experienced - Long day long drive from Hanoi but 6 wonderful hours on the boat. We had a great guide who explained everything before it happened.
I could have done without the oyster/pearl stop but had been forewarned by previous comments
The caves were worth the steps and the walk.
Food was plentiful.
You had to pay extra for a speedboat ride but the kayaking and banana boat were free and relaxing.
Fantastic views as the sun set

Halong Bay a must if visiting Vietnam! - A must see if you visit VIietnam. The tour was nice which included lunch on the boat. 2-3 stoos for the cave & beach. We also did the speed boat, if you have time it’s worth it (extra $). It becomes a long day though.

Hit and miss! - This was average; breathtaking in parts and distinctively average in others.
Due to the over commercialism of this tour, it did become a bit "Disneylandish" with the number of people who were visiting and overcrowded in some areas.
However, the boat was fine with just enough people on board and the vehicle was equipped with USB ports. The buffet was okay but the food was not hot (like most buffets). Staff on board were friendly.
Take toilet paper with you as this was missing from some of the public restrooms.
We were informed that single use bottles were not permitted onboard the boat so you may wish to consider this if you're intending to stock up for the trip.
The views of the bay and cave were breathtaking but the last stop at the beach was overcrowded.
The pearl tour was optional and you didn't have to partake in the same if you didn't want to. You can stop at the cafe for drinks and snacks instead of you so wish.
The disco onboard was interesting as the songs did not play in its entirety and kept jumping to the next song but nevertheless, I was dancing!
We returned to the hotel after 21:00 so it's a long day.

Must do but expect crowds. Not a “party” bus and boat. - Must do excursion but overcrowded and we went in the “low” season. Beautiful place even in the smog from the crop burning but Authorities need to consider limiting number of tourists each day as per Venice, Machu Pichu. Tour itself is standard - set route, generic buffet but at least it wasn’t a party bus or boat.
