It’s all about the service! Excellent staff: special thanks to: Harry, Andrew, Amy. They went above and beyond for us, so we would have the best experience! The boat was luxurious! Excellent excursions. Delicious food. Exquisite rooms- spacious. We had massage at the spa- very skilled masseuse. Loved the infinity pool. Morning Tai chi by Harry. Wonderful photos / videos by drone. We experienced all that was offered. Nothing felt rushed. Staff was excellent! Thank you to all the wonderful staff.

We had a group of 3 people, picked up from Halong Bay hotel. Pickup was on time and we were warmly welcomed on board by our generous host. We were ushered to out downstairs table to wait for the main group travelling down from Hanoi. Refreshing drink and towel while we waited. It was a smaller group due to recent typhoon (much damage still evident- office gone). Not long after starting out we were supplied with a fantastic lunch that was very diverse and plentiful. The staff even peeled our prawns for us - we felt spoiled. Lots of info supplied by our host and the cave trip, kayaking and hill hiking were great experiences. We even spotted some monkeys while kayaking. Afternoon tea on the way home while our host kept us amused and informed, even helping find best photo shots. The staff were great and the boat was wonderful and clean. Thanks

Such a picturesque place and what a wonderful way to experience Ha Long Bay. Kayaking, beach, caves! Great food. Helpful and friendly staff. Tai chi on the sundeck too! And the post dinner massage was brilliant. Only negative thing was the people flying drones right in front of our patio in the evening and again early in the morning when we were trying to enjoy a beautiful peaceful sunrise.

Amazing staff led by Chien, clean rooms with all required amenities. Food was high quality and delicious. Activities well organised.

Our tour guide Luca was incredible - he was polite, informative and so accommodating. The itinerary is well set out and organised, and it was a day to remember.

This was an overall enjoyable experience but a few things were not as “5 star” as I expected. First of all, the staff and service was very good, including the shuttle to Ha Long Bay and back from Hanoi. However the food was mediocre at best for lunch while quality improved for dinner and the following day’s breakfast. Also the itinerary spots are beautiful but very crowded. The boat itself is pretty old and it can be seen in the furniture and just general ambiance of the boat. Our room had some mold and cob webs on the AC. Overall we still had a good time and for the price it’s a decent option for a Ha Long Bay cruise in my opinion if you’re able to overlook a few aesthetic things. I would recommend to bring snacks and waters though bc everything is charged extra if you don’t like the food.

We had a terrific 3 Days 2 Nights at The Elite of The Seas. We can not say enough good things about Tony and Peter they were fantastic. If all humanity would treat each other the way we were treated on this trip we would live in a better world. Entire staff was friendly and kind. The vessel and two nights were peaceful and relaxing.

We had an amazing class with Trang after visiting the local market! The dishes we helped create were authentic and even though we helped they tasted amazing! Finished with yummy egg coffee.

Right from the pick up point to the drop point, the members of le journey ha long cruise was exceptional. Mr. TIM took care of everyone very well. Tim explained us the intenary for the day and personally took us to the sightseeing places. His expertise in the area is unmatchable. Not to forget is amazing singing skills. He also Organization cooking class for us. We made Vietnamese spring roll. I will surely not forget the 5 5 4 7 and will surely try making the rolls back home. Thank you Tim the amazing experience. Ti top hike, Kayaking in the rain, surprise cave exploration was soo beautiful to explore. A must visit cruise and place in halong bay ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Just perfect the view, the boat, the food, the staff everything was Perfect . We got picked up from Hanoi it was over a 2 hr trip. The limousine bus was comfortable.We really enjoyed the canoe through the caves . Thank you Athena the experience was amazing

An excellent full day tour ! The company stayed in contact via WhatsApp from the moment we booked , on arrival at hotel and at the end of the trip to ensure full satisfaction. Our day guide Mr Kenny was outstanding, very pleasant guy , very knowledgeable and took pride in what he does ensuring a multilingual satisfaction for all approach ! Couldn't have asked for a better guide ! The trip itself is incredible! We done this on vietnams independence day so attractions were busier than normal but vietnam has its own way of dealing with this so we never noticed and delays . The landscape is just beautiful. The Pagoda and Bai dinh is a must when seeing this country . The boat trip throughout this land was certainly a highlight and the free supplied umbrella was very welcome in the 40c+ heat whilst on this ! A special mention to Mr Driver who expertly navigated throughout 100% recommend 👌

What a wonderful experience!!! Exceeded our expectations...we were a little concerned about what it would be like after reading some reviews about the area and the amount of plastic etc in the water. But, we were not disappointed!!! Probably helped that we travelled in low season with less crowds and boats. The Orchid Classic Cruise was amazing, our suite spacious and the most beautiful views!!! The staff and service we could not fault, nothing was too much trouble. Loved the trips they organised, kayak, cave, swimming on a small beach...The boat manager Mr Bang was extremely helpful and kind. Chris, our waiter throughout the cruise a joy. David, our guide to the village very informative and funny!!! Would highly recommend, you will not be disappointed!!!

We really enjoyed our 1 night cruise around Halong Bay. We had a suite with an extra bed for our son which was huge, with large bathroom and balcony. Food was lovely and beautifully presented. The staff worked so hard to make sure we have an enjoyable stay. We loved the cooking demonstration and our 16 year old son had ago at making Vietnamese spring rolls. Lovely sunset cocktails.

It's pretty good considering I normally stay away from cruise options. The boat itself is nice though basic. I had a lower deck cabin without a balcony but it was comfortable. The crew were very friendly and helpful. Food options are good too though bar prices bit high.

The trip was amazing! The boat was really nice and so were the rooms. But above all…what an amazing, warm and friendly crew. We would like to thank you all. Andy, thanks for all the (clear) information and all the nice activities. Mr. Chien, thank you too for making sure everything was arranged smoothly. Hope to come back again! Thanks for this unforgettable trip in the beautiful surroundings of Halong Bay.
