Great
Trip went well, the weather was amazing. I took so many pictures of sunset as it was stunning. The boat is not new but the staff's service makes up for it.
I had a great time in Bai Ti Long and will return next year.

Good experience
A nice cruise, old-fashioned style, and in keeping with the wonderful landscape, the rooms had wonderful views on both sides, and the cabin had a small balcony that allowed you to enjoy the landscape in peace.
The activities and the experience were very good. The food was average although all the staff was wonderful.
