The staff, food and the boat were very good, I would recommend it
Jack
The trip was nice, our guide took care of everything and we were able to just enjoy the surroundings. What could be better is the itinerary - the first stop we had in Ha Long Bay was a very small island (Ti Top island) with a viewpoint on top and a beach, but apparently most boats come here so the island was very crowded. We would have preferred to either come at a different time or not to come at all. Also, the photos of the cabin we saw on Seek Sophie website do not match the real life at all. We liked our cabin, but our expectations were very different. Overall, I would still recommend this trip, especially the kayaking part was great:) But make sure you come in the warmer months if possible as it can get pretty chilly on the boat in winter.

This was a good experience. If you want a less touristy, a bit more authentic bay experience than this is definitely it. As the boat is small, you connect with the other guests better which makes this cruise a more social experience. The only negative thing was that the hot water didn’t work in the shower. All in all good value for the price.
