3 day Ha Long Bay experience
icon circle by Tripadvisor
We organised with the brilliant Mia Nguyen at Best Price travel for a 3 day, 2 night tour with Orchid cruises on their nostalgia boat. Mia’s help and organisation was brilliant. Due to the typhoon we had to change plans but she was helpful, friendly and organised throughout. We genuinely could not have asked for more from her. The boat was clean, comfortable and with some absolutely brilliant staff. We are well, plenty of options and lots of food available. The trips we took from the boat were even better than expected. An amazing experience.

There was nothing they could do about it, but it impacted travel time, as there was no other way to go. All the traffic had to narrow down to the… More

Ninh Binh: Hoa Lu - Van Long Nature Reserve Day Trip | 12/10/2024

I really enjoyed the scenery. It was very hot.

I think our guide (Mr Allen) was not too happy. Maybe the heat got to him. He didn’t engage with the group.

He kept a professional smile but was short with us. Snapped at one of the passengers when they asked for more water. Her said rudely. NO. He… More

There are many option for homestay in Ninh Binh that offer cheap price and good services. Since you need to do private tour for this route (no-customer for join) so price will a bit high, if you do classic one like Hoa lu - Tam Coc, Trang An - Bai Dinh we can put you on a group for cheaper.
