Perfect choice!
Everything is fine. We were at Paradise Peak for 2 days. The conditions of the rooms are wonderful, and the staff is impeccable. There is nothing bad to point out except for the crowded bay. I get it was famous, so it was understandable.
We highly recommend this cruise because there are fewer travelers and the food is amazing. In our opinion, it was very good for a 4-star cruise.

Paradise Peak
I wish the cruise had a longer duration. Nature provided its best; the weather was perfect; the food quality and variety were of a high standard; rooms with private balconies and personal Jacuzzis added to the luxury factor.
The cruise staff was courteous, always helpful, and very professional.
I shall return and join the Paradise Cruise, but for a longer period.

Nice service
One of the best cruises we have had. The staff is nice and helpful. There were only a few cabins so our stay was comfortable and peaceful. Dinner is like fine dining, very tasty.
Special shoutout to the butler for your amazing service.

I was lucky that the storm only reached Vietnam after we did the cruise. Janet is such a great assistant as she consistently keeps us in touch with the situation.
Thank you, Janet. I highly recommend her for your Halong Bay trip.
