Could you confirm if the cruise stay in the bay during the night ? In other words, the boat do not come back each night in the port to stay all night and leave in the morning for the excursion/visit. I heard that Venus Cruise, was a new name for the Era Cruise, if so should I read the reviews on this Era Cruise to make my final choice of the company cruise I will like to book ? Best regards, Michel

However, the sink in the shower was clogged. We reported this issue, but unfortunately, it was not fixed during our stay. Also, our room was in the front of the ship on the 'ground' floor, and during the whole night, there were very loud bangs to be heard from the lower decks. Even with earplugs, we both couldn't really sleep. Neighbors also could not sleep because of this.
Excursions: The day trip to Viet Hai was very enjoyable, and we especially liked the bike tour. That said, we had different expectations regarding the cruise itself. We thought there would be more time traveling with the main boat and less time spent on the day boat.
Food: The food was acceptable, with quantities more than sufficient. However, given the price of the trip, we expected higher quality. Less

- el primer día (kayak) era una zona cerrada, con poco atractivo, a excepción de una pequeña cala) y olía mucho a pescado (también los chalecos salvavidas). 1h 30min
- El segundo día: se invierte mucho tiempo en los traslados por la bahía, por lo que las actividades (visita, kayak, nadar) tienen muy poco tiempo (30 min cada una). Se podría organizar al menos una hora de kayak con alguna playa donde poder parar y bañarse, en lugar de tirarse desde el barco (más atractivo para gente joven). Además, todavía estábamos comiendo cuando empezó la actividad, así que era un poco precipitado para el estómago. Less
La habitación espléndida, nos ha gustado mucho. Solo un pequeño inconveniente: el hervidor de agua era incompatible con los enchufes de la pared, i no hemos podido disfrutar del té. Pedí un adaptador, pero ya no llegó.

En general, han sido unos días fantásticos en el crucero y en la bahía, solo cambiaría las actividades fuera del barco.

Everything went kinda smooth, though some hiccups. The ship itself was very nice.
However the food was a disappointment, mostly overcooked and some are cold.
We had a wonderful experience on this cruise. The ship is modern, clean, and beautifully designed, with spacious cabins and great views of the bay. The itinerary was well organized, activities were enjoyable, and everything felt relaxed, not rushed.
