What an unforgettable tour in Sapa and the perfect way for our family (with a 10 year old daughter) to experience the true beauty and magic of the Black Hmong people. This area is stunning and the hotel and homestay were wonderful! The trekking was challenging at times, but the best way to experience the culture. We loved meeting people from around the world and sharing this once is a lifetime experience. It is a memory we will always treasure. 🙏🏻❤️

We just had a 2 night 3 day cruise on the Heritage cruise. Very luxurious. Food was 10/10. Staff were so amazing and helpful. The rooms were so beautiful and the beds so comfortable. The bathroom and huge bath with high end tapware felt so luxurious. James was the most attentive and helpful staff member. We would highly recommend doing a heritage cruise.

What a magnificent trip from start to finish - definitely worth every penny. We appreciated the quiet and peaceful drift along the water. At times we felt like the only ship in the bay. The limestone mountains were spectacular, almost mesmerizing. The food elevated mealtimes to a feeling of fine dining and the attentiveness of the staff seemed heartfelt. We especially enjoyed our chats with Chris and Sam. This is a sailing of a lifetime, a truly memorable experience.

Our trip with Stella of the Sea Cruise in Ha Long Bay was truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment we stepped onboard, we were welcomed with warm hospitality and exceptional service. The itinerary was well-organized, allowing us to explore the stunning landscapes of Ha Long Bay while also enjoying relaxing moments on the sundeck. The food onboard was another standout feature – a perfect combination of Vietnamese and international cuisine, freshly prepared and beautifully presented. In the evening, we had the opportunity to join a cooking class and try squid fishing, adding a fun and interactive touch to the trip. this cruise is highly recommended! We will definitely return for another trip in the future.

We just woke up on our way to Sapa on the overnight sleeper with a double room, services on the train were excellent, drinks and snacks provided free of charge, very clean and comfortable, no rude interruptions, polite and friendly staff, exceeded expectations.

We had a great time onboard. Beautiful scenery and the staff was fantastic. The activities were fun and fairly organized. Definitely recommend! The only drawback was getting repeatedly pestered by the local operator to pay ‘increased prices for 2025’.

OK this is a tale of two halves. Firstly the crew on board, the boat, the food,drinks and on board tour were superb. However, we took this tour on NYE. and pick up was an hour late, although I kept receiving text to say the coach would be there in a few minutes! The coach was actually parked on the outskirts of the city in a lay bye Although the whole of Hanoi knew some roads in the centre were closed the operators did not. I was surprised that the extremely young tour guide seemed to think everything was ok and also felt appropriately dressed in a track suit and beanie hat and was accompanied by his friend neither of whom had a clue about hospitality. They clearly thought they were on a jolly and were rude, patronising and treated their guests like children. The day was ruined by their unacceptable and shocking behaviour. Although treated like children all day we aren’t so we were able to eventually make our way back to our hotel when the coach unloaded on the outskirts of the city. The taxi organised by the guide would only go 250yards as he hadn’t been paid properly! Hanoi on NYE is one busy place and with no Vietnamese knowledge, map etc the hours walk was potentially dangerous and trying Let’s hope by now this guide has been replaced The boat is great however and well worth the double cost of similar trips, full marks to them and thank you

A wonderful cruise on the elegant Ginger. The accomodations, staff and dining experience were excellent! Next time I would take a two day cruise, one day just wasn't enough on this beautiful ship.

We laughed so much when we read some reviews about this trip - ‘like being shrunk, put in a tin can and rolled down the fire escape’. Not too far off!! The cabin was much more comfortable than we were expecting. Soft pillows and clean linen / duvets. Some water and fruit was provided along with a free drink just as we left. You have to pay for tea / coffee when you ‘land’. Don’t bother. It was pretty noisy as expected but I managed more sleep than I was expecting. Husband managed 2 hours! On arriving at 5:30am you really need to have worked out what happens next. We had brekky in the hotel opposite then had a lift organised. A few hours Kip in the hotel might have been a better option. We decided to get a lift back to Hanoi as we couldn’t face another night on the train.

Wonderful experience around the villages and rice terraces of Sapa. Mama Zuzu and her family were super nice and welcoming. The trekking was a real fun!

Here is our letter of thanks to Asia King Travel Dear Ms Ngoc and Asia King Travel. About our samphan cruise - thank you for excellent service, information and following up on my questions, changes etc. The cruise was a success. We were picked up by the hotel in the morning and after a pleasant drive, one stop for refreshment, we reached the samphan. We were met by our excellent guide, Mr. EM, highly recommended, and crew members taking care of our luggage. Getting on board we were welcomed with fresh cotton towels and coconut drinks. Then we were cycling in the area before going to "Le Longanier" restaurant for an excellent dinner - beautiful house. Then back to the samphan and the cruise started. We were, before the cruise, "afraid" that it would be a little crowded and little time for ourselves enjoying the cruise - but how we were wrong! We were treated like royals and Mr. Em, the guide did everything he could to make it OUR cruise. Never disturbed, always "on alert" if we wanted to ask something, freshly brewed Vietnamese coffee always available. The meals prepared in a tiny microscopic "kitchen" was like in a restaurant. Our first night sleeping on board was quite only some boats passing during the night. The bed was good. Since we are experienced travellers we chose to use less time on stops in markets and brick factory that we have seen similar before. Also last evening dinner in private house - going there with the little boat only to pick up dinner, not eating there - eating later on the boat on our way to Rach Gia. We were told that normally the samphan reached Rach Gia around 3-4AM cruising all night. Since the noice from the engine in our beautiful bed room was quit high - 81dB - it was difficult to sleep. But since we made fewer stops as described we reached Rach Gia around 11PM and had a quiet nice sleep all night waking up to a nice breakfast. The bath room was almost hotel like, tiles in shower. After taking farewell with our excellent - No.1-crew we ended our cruise and tour in Rach Gia. Mr. Em, had arranged for a taxi to take us to the ticked office and then to "Superdong" bound for Phu Quoc island. The samphan cruise was a once in a lifetime wonderful experience - recommended! Thank you again and we will definitely recommend Asia Travel and Ms. Ngoc to everyone! As readers now understand we highly recommend the samphan cruse as a once in a lifetime experience! Have a nice trip!

Amazing views and quite nice activities. The tour is well-balanced between sight-seeing, boating, beach, etc. A special thank you to our tour guide, Thang, who was both friendly and attentive.

Amazing experience.. lovely cruise..very delicious food..loved the ambience, the staff of the cruise were very polite.

I can highly recommend Renea cruise, we chose a small boat to Ba Tu Long bay, our guide CONG was fantastic & the staff & food on the boat was top quality. It was a fabulous experience

The customer service was fantastic. Staff were so friendly and accommodating. Our room was also very clean. The buffet breakfast had a range of selections to choose from.
