Thankfulness is not enough for Minah's contribution. While we were hesitant about the number of cruises, she explained to us and showed us the value differences between each cruise, and recommended the cruise we suited most (from budget, service, itinerary, etc.). The Orchid Premium Cruise generally was great, from the staff to onboard amenities, The terrace suite is perfect for my husband and me and my 2 kids, and every corner of the room was so lovely, we were truly interested in it. About the itinerary, the cruise brought us to many amazing places, I was amazed by the tranquility of Viet Hai fishing village and wish I had more time spent here, the kayak in Frog Pond was also great, did not have words to complain. All in all, I appreciate Minah and your agent! Less
My husband and I were on the Orchid Premium for a 2d 1n cruise to Halong Bay. There were only five cabins on the boat, and our room was spacious and clean, with a private balcony. Meals were well prepared, with a good variety of choices on the menu.
It is highly recommended!
We had a fantastic time on the cruise. The Bay view was mesmerizing. The staff on board was accommodating and courteous. The food onboard was adorable, with a lot of options. Had fun time kayaking, Tai chi, and cooking class. I will surely come one more time!
We traveled on the Orchid Premium Cruise, a one-day, two-night cruise during our honeymoon. It was THE best part of our honeymoon trip. The staff was excellent - so friendly! Service was the BEST we’ve ever received. All the team work very hard and are attentive to each passenger’s needs.

The food was just impeccable! It was Michelin star quality. We had four meals, and each of the many dishes within each meal was delicious. They feed you as much as you want, and every meal is made there and then.
Moving onto the room - what can I say? Again amazing! We had a big bath, sun beds, oversized rocking chairs on the balcony, a huge bathroom, and a spacious room.
Honestly, I cannot say how memorable this trip was - the staff made so much effort; they surprised us by decorating our room for our honeymoon, they decorated the table for dinner, and also brought out drinks with music and filmed it all for us as a surprise.
We are so grateful and will 100% be back again!!! This trip is slightly more expensive than the other cruises Orchid runs, but honestly, it’s worth every penny! :) Also, because it’s somewhat more costly, fewer people are on the boat, so fewer people are competing for sun beds on the top deck or trying to get into the jacuzzi. It pretty much feels like a private cruise just for you! Highly recommend! Less
I had a fantastic time on the trip with my wife.
I'd want to express my gratitude to LK and Jayce in particular for their incredible hospitality.
The rest of the crew was also fantastic.
