Great staff, great cruise, great trip!
We adore less-traveled places, so Lan Ha Bay was a great choice. Our trip was calm and incredibly wonderful thanks to Heritage Binh Chuan. The staff was really courteous and took good care of us. The boat itself is immaculate and has a lovely design. Our spacious cottage has plenty of room and wonderful hot water, all we need. Particularly the kayaking, the activities were engaging. Suggested!
