Booked for us via Trailfinders so we weren't sure what to expect but it was a pleasant surprise. We had one of the suites at the back of the boat (202) which was huge! The food was good (let them know if you don't like something and they can adapt). We were asked whether we had any allergies, I need gluten free and one of the members of staff Emily was brilliant at showing me what I could have. She took the time to talk me through the options available and made alternatives/adaptions as needed. The cocktails were particularly strong (although we added sprite and that made it better)
The views were brilliant, we woke up for sunrise and watched from our balcony, the optional excursions were a nice addition.
All of the staff were amazing but Emily was particularly brilliant

One of the best views in the world. We took the cruis with ship 4669, the staff was very helpful and friendly especially Tiang Tony ane Elle. IMHO these views are a must.

This 2 night three day tour wasn’t as expected. Wasted time traveling by crummy tender out to boat parked way out in the bay. First day a very short cruise out to a section of the bay I found less scenic. Then a tender ride for a hiking in the cave adventure. Forced to walk across wet hot asphalt for a less than interesting cave. Finally back on the boat for a short cruise to drop anchor. All drinks including cuppacchino cost extra. The meal service was pretty good, the staff hard working young people- no complaints with the staff. Our room reaked of cigarette smoke even though it was a non smoking boat. Diesel fuel scent is a way of life on the boat. Best of all was the kayaking. Sadly the last day we had to leave our rooms by 9:30 in the morning so it hardly counted as a 3 day trip. All in all Lan Ha Bay not the most scenic area of Halong Bay.
