Perfect for the kids!
A great trip. This cruise is perfect if you have kids. Our boys enjoyed the squid fishing and the kayaking. We would recommend it to families looking for a mid-range priced family holiday.

A peaceful getaway!
For a short peaceful getaway for one, it was perfect! I particularly enjoyed the cooking class. The crew surprised me with a mini birthday celebration which was a lovely touch since I hadn’t mentioned it to anyone.

A Truly Wonderful Experience
My partner and I have just returned from a wonderful holiday in Vietnam which included an amazing boat trip in Halong Bay. We booked with the Garden Bay Luxury Cruise line. Whilst the boat had all the appearance of an Ancient trading junk, it was five star luxury all the way. I strongly recommend anyone travelling to Vietnam to take advantage of this type of break. It was three of the most enjoyable days, spent with lovely people in real style. A huge thanks must go to the crew who were all delightful. We really did have a great time. The bay is extraordinary and so beautiful.
