3 day Ha Long Bay experience![icon circle]()
by Tripadvisor
by TripadvisorWe 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.

There are many option for homestay in Ninh Binh that offer cheap price and good services. Since you need to do private tour for this route (no-customer for join) so price will a bit high, if you do classic one like Hoa lu - Tam Coc, Trang An - Bai Dinh we can put you on a group for cheaper.

Our first was a day trip to Ninh Binh and Tam Coc, which turned out to be a real highlight. The tour was flexible—you could choose from activities like a peaceful boat ride, hiking, cycling, and more. Everything was well-organized, including catering, and the guides were not only friendly but also shared fascinating insights along the way. Door-to-door pickup and drop-off made the whole day stress-free. Highly recommended!
Our second experience was an overnight cruise in Halong Bay, which was just as memorable. BestPrice Travel offers a range of cruise options depending on your budget—you can choose your boat, room type, and duration. The itinerary was packed with great activities like kayaking, swimming, hiking to scenic viewpoints, cooking classes, and even morning tai chi. The food onboard was a standout, freshly prepared and beautifully presented, with special attention given to dietary preferences or allergies.
We traveled as a couple and found both tours to be smooth, professional, and thoroughly enjoyable. A big thank-you to our travel consultant, Hang Moon, who was warm, helpful, and incredibly responsive throughout the booking and trip. We highly recommend BestPrice Travel for a seamless and well-curated Vietnam experience! Less

Our itinerary included 3 nights in Hanoi, a night in Ninh Binh, and a 2-night private cruise in Bai Tu Long Bay (right next to Halong Bay).
She truly thought of everything—even the weather was on our side! Her hotel and cruise recommendations were spot-on: the Apricot Hotel in Hanoi was ideally located, Emeralda Resort in Ninh Binh exceeded our expectations, and the 2-night Prince Cruise was a perfect way to experience the bay in comfort and privacy.
The food throughout the trip was delicious, and the service was consistently excellent. Janet did a fantastic job from start to finish—we couldn’t have asked for more. Less
