From the transfer, check-in, check-out to all the schedule, everything was so efficient and well organized. The exploration in the cave was captivating, the bays were perfect, food was tasty, and rooms were okay. However, Halong Bay had quite many other boats and wifi connection on board was really weak. My advice is to bring cash with you as paying by card is charged a bank fee.
Bhaya staff spoke great and fluent English and they were all really kind and supportive. The boat was lovely and visited lots of gorgeous destinations in only 3 days. We were vegetarian and with our request in advance, the cruise really prepared great dishes to meet our needs. Cannot recommend this cruise more, truly fantastic!
Fabulous! We did the 2-night tour with Bhaya classic and everything was beautiful and memorable. We highly suggest this cruise as you will be involved in a lot of exciting activities - kayaking, swimming, caving, visiting farms & villages, cooking,... Things may seem rushed but you do not have to join all activities if you don't want to. Meals offered a lot of options and were all very yummy. Rooms were clean. Halong Bay was spectacular.
We are a senior couple and spent 2 nights on Bhaya Cruise. Although we did not take part in many activities such as caving or visiting a fishing village, we really loved the dazzling views of the bays as well as all the wonderful amenities here. The cruise team was helpful and also attentive to our needs, they were all really friendly and polite. The food was superb. However, as we spent most of the time sightseeing, it got boring sometimes, so I suggest choosing a 1-night tour only for senior travelers.
The cabins were nice, clean, with great room services despite its quite small size. The destinations were absolutely among the most gorgeous places we have visited in Vietnam, especially the caves. The food was delectable although some dishes were a little bland to me. The staff were excellent. The highlight was surely kayaking and swimming, which was really cool and pleasant with magnificent views.
A wonderful vacation with Bhaya Cruise! The whole crew were very professional and friendly. My wife and I had so much delicious Vietnamese food while on board and we also truly enjoyed all the off-deck excursions around the bays. We loved Bai Tu Long Bay and its wild serene beauty! However, the weather in June was extremely hot and I must say the A/C did not work really well.
Our experience with the Bhaya cruise was definitely above our first expectations. We took a 3-day tour and the most memorable moment was kayaking as well as a visit to Vung Vieng fishing village & pearl farm. The chef was very hospitable and the food was diverse and delicious. He also catered well to my vegetarian diets, which I really appreciated! We learned to make spring rolls, enjoyed sunbathing and relaxing on the sundeck,... The bays were absolutely stunning and we hope this cruise and the locals will continue their efforts for sustainable tourism!
Overall, it was a very nice cruise. The staff were so supportive and made great efforts to make your experience as memorable and pleasant as possible. The tour guide, Mr. Tom, was informative and funny! Although some parts were slightly outdated and wifi was slow and unstable, the trip was great thanks to the lovely crew, amazing bays, and good activities.
