Ms.Delece V
Halong Bay was wonderful
The only criticism is that it was really busy, which is to be anticipated. We had a really fantastic time.
There was a little rain, but it was fantastic.
Thank you, Anna, for organizing such a once-in-a-lifetime trip.

Excellent service and an incredible experience!
I had a lovely day at Ha Long Bay! I was not only astonished by its beautiful and unique natural beauty, but I also had a superb 5-star experience on the Paradise Elegance Tuan Chau cruise. My vacation was extremely unforgettable due to the excellent service, delicious meals, smart itinerary, and energetic personnel.

Boat met expectations
Beautiful cottage. A good and plentiful selection of cuisine.
The trips were well planned and conducted.
However, the entire region is overcrowded with tourists.
The view is breathtaking, but we would have had a poor experience without the high quality of the boat.
