Very good

Mr Bhaavik22/07/2023

Although that is storm season in Vietnam, this Lan Ha Bay trip was still enjoyable. From the first moment at the tender to the cruise, the staff provided biological life in Lan Ha Bay and Ha Long Bay. We arrived when the rain was still raining, but the buffet lunch and restaurant atmosphere made our body and mind warmer. Luckily, after that, a cloudless sky, we could try Waterslide and kayaking. For this season, we met crab squid, no fish squid, but still a lovely experience. The second day was the time to keep most photos in our album; the attractive beauty of statistics at Dark & Bright cave caught our eyes. Overall, we were satisfied with this trip, although the weather was not too good. Thanks to Dream Travel and Orchid team.
