Beautiful place. Thanks for sharing it. 👍👍👍

I did a 3D/2N Ha Long/Lan Ha Bay cruise in November '22. I was UNDERwhelmed. We were also accompanied everywhere by 17 or 18 other similarly-sized or larger vessels and, probably due to oppressive afternoon heat, everyone did activities at the same time (and, yes, Tai Chi at 05:30 wasn't attractive to me either!) As a result, kayaking, beach, village visits were about as entertaining as sitting in rush hour traffic on a Los Angeles freeway. And, "cruise?" Misnomer! I'd estimate we were actually underway for less than 30 minutes for the entire three-day duration. Boats only move when picking up or dropping off passengers, then drop anchor and sit. And, finally, trash. You must've been there during a favorable tide as we had people refusing to swim due to the massive amounts of floating detritus. In sum, terribly over-touristed and very, very "trappy!" Maybe Bai Tu Bay is quieter, but I won't bother finding out. PRICE: $490 single/$770 couple (USD)

wonderful video .. which cruise did you take ? did you book well in advance or in hanoi ?

Hallo.... Greetings explore...

hi me and my partner are looking at doing a 2 night, 3 day cruise at lan ha bay in june and wondering if its going to be worth it or if its all just a bit weird and ruined by tourism. we're both early 30s and from Aus too. Did your cruise include alcohol? Was it super expensive to drink on the boat?

Hi could you please share what’s the cruise that you took?
