10/05/2022We just came back from Bai Tu Long Bay trip with Renea cruise, and it was a fantastic trip. The wild beauty of Vietnam has already been under our very eyes. Thanks to all staff for your kindness!
Ms.Amanda Grossman
05/05/2022We chose Bai Tu Long instead of Ha Long Bay as it's wild and quiet. We could immerse in crystal water and kayaking through the islets. The seafood was tasty. A comfortable room and soft bed make us relax after a busy day. Thanks for the friendly staff helping us during the trip. We will come back the next time and recommend it!
