About last week, we boarded Era Cruise and visit Halong Bay, a world-famous tourist attraction in Vietnam.
The manager was very friendly and always cared about the passengers and took care of us in every possible way. The service on the cruise was first-class and the waiters were also courteous. I'm just not really fond of traveling on a day boat for the 2nd day as it was a bit uncomfortable.
We booked with BestPrice Travel and received 1st-rate service. Originally scheduled for 2023 but has been delayed now. Most Halong Bay tours are quite similar in terms of scenery. We selected Era since its accommodations were larger and finer than most other boats at comparable costs, and we were extremely pleased with our decision.
I had an amazing experience! The landscapes were breathtaking, the guide was excellent, and the kayak adventure was incredible. The accommodations were spacious and comfortable. Special thanks to Miss My Uyen for arranging everything. Unforgettable!
