Typhoon Honey was very funny guide. The visit the temple at the beginning was unexpected and I really liked the canals and the food on the island.

Memorable family trip

We recently had this private tour to Cai Be and Tan Phong and it was top-notch. We're able to learn so much about the local life in the Mekong Delta.

We visit the floating market, try handmade candy, and then explore Tan Phong Islet. We enjoyed fresh fruits and had a very nice meal. We're so thankful for this experience!!

3 day Ha Long Bay experience

by Tripadvisor

We organised with the brilliant Mia Nguyen at Best Price travel for a 3 day, 2 night tour with Orchid cruises on their nostalgia boat. Mia’s help and organisation was brilliant. Due to the typhoon we had to change plans but she was helpful, friendly and organised throughout. We genuinely could not have asked for more from her. The boat was clean, comfortable and with some absolutely brilliant staff. We are well, plenty of options and lots of food available. The trips we took from the boat were even better than expected. An amazing experience.
