a really cozy space. Good employees: Dong and Tom. The entire crew made the vacation wonderful and was really helpful. I'm grateful. Highlights of the vacation included the boat ride to a fishing town, the cuisine, and the laid-back environment.
This cruise is a classic.
And everything has been carefully considered.
As with other ships, the quarters are small.
I dislike how kind, friendly, and non-servile the staff is because of this.
Excellent cuisine is served. Particularly good, delicious, and elegant were the set lunches and dinners with up to 5 courses.
Incredible views, unquestionably a must-see attraction. Worthwhile caves, enjoyable kayaking activity. It can be tough to climb the hill at Ti Top beach stop, especially if you're older. The guides and staff were friendly and accommodating. The majority of the food served was Vietnamese. The only letdown… More Incredible views, unquestionably a must-see attraction. Worthwhile caves, enjoyable kayaking activity. It can be tough to climb the hill at Ti Top beach stop, especially if you're older. The guides and staff were friendly and accommodating. The majority of the food served was Vietnamese. The only letdown was that the SPA services were provided on a regular bed in one of the standard cabins. The cabin almost gave off the impression that it belonged to a crew member. Less
The transport to and from cruise was excellent, very comfortable. Room on board cruise clean had everything we needed. Comfortable bed, nice bathroom. Staff were very helpful and friendly.

Room on board cruise clean had everything we needed. Comfortable bed, nice bathroom. Staff were very helpful and friendly. The captain/ activity manager very helpful and informative. The activity we found best was visit to caves this morning. Would have been better if we had more time there. The kayaking and swimming are not really for us. So we relaxed on the boat yesterday. We found the food on the boat generally good. The breakfast, salads fresh fruit all good. Our only criticism would be the beef was not good it was very chewy and could not be eaten, chicken always seemed overcooked and dry. Everything else was really good. :) Less
We had a great time on the day boat activities, service, and food. A special thanks to Dong and Joy for taking such good care of us. Would adore returning!
