11-Jul-2023

Wonderfully cozy boat! The shiny wooden decor and architecture, together with the history of the founders takes you back in time. The cruise interiors definitely give you a heritage feeling. The room, the attached bathroom and the balcony were all large enough for our family of 4 (two small kids). Since there are only a limited number of rooms, the cruise never felt crowded and you can easily find quiet and peaceful corners everywhere on the boat.

28-Oct-2023

We organised a one day trip to Halong Bay with Local tours Vietnam! We were given information about all the options and different levels of trip in the office. We had a fantastic day from start to finish. Bus was very comfortable and clean, tour guide was great and the tour was perfect. We were contacted the next day to make sure everything went well and that we were happy! We also arranged transfers with Local Tours Vietnam!

15-Mar-2024

We did the Bai Pagoda/Tran An/Mua Cave trip. James was a great guide--very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. My husband and I enjoyed the activities, scenery, and lunch. I also loved that the bus had comfortable seats that leaned back far, so it was easy to take a nap on the ride home :) Luong was very helpful and quick-to-respond with payment issues we had before the tour and with our request to change the date of the tour.

SAVED MY JOURNEY! You need...

16-Jan-2024

SAVED MY JOURNEY! You need a reliable local operator (never trust western platforms, either hosts) and Huy is the best We entered his office the very first day, just cancelled by TripAdvisor and get your guide on our cruise for the day after. Huy called the entire bay to find a spot and, since it was all booked, put us on a trip for Ninh Binh (the best of Vietnam) Since then , he backed us up with selfless tips so much so we made time the very last day to bring him gifts, draft this review by hand, and take the picture attached. cam on my friend! INCREDIBLY RECOMMENDED

07-Oct-2023

We went on the private boat tour (4 people only) with the company and it was simply amazing! Delicious meals (mainly sea food and fish), nice views and nice kayak tours. The guide took us on a places where were no tourists and even better views than the other boats. Thank you for your service!

Great help in organising private transfers & small group tours across Vietnam. They helped with last minute Ha Long Bay Cruise also. Highly recommend, don’t be phased with conversations and booking confirmations via WhatsApp.

22-Nov-2024

Again same problem family 4 canceled same day on the time of the trip after arrival to location early!! Not acceptable at all ( booked more 12 hours prior to the trip, agency accepted my request to the trip and money was taken, as well as tickets were send)!!! Any changes and cancelation should be done by the company not the client. Our schedule is very packed and now that the agency cancelled our trip, our day plans are wasted, not professional AT ALL, DO NOT RECCOMMEND
