Rosa Boutique Cruise

Great if you do the 3 day 2 nights. I think the 2 day 1 night option appeared a bit hectic with little time to relax and fully savour a magical place.

The Rosa Boutique cruise was a small size cruise that provides a comfortable setting to chat with other guests but enough space to sit quietly as well. The meals on the cruise are extensive and tasty. The guide was helpful and accessible. During the kayaking part, he joined the group to ensure everyone had a good experience.

One for the bucket list. Halong Bay was beautiful, and well worth the visit, but would we go again, no we wouldn't. The area is far too commercialised and the cleanliness of the area needs to be improved. The boat itself was comfortable enough but the food sadly hit and miss, the service was great and the excursions interesting and well run. The Wifi wasn't great.

Good choice of boat. Good food, fun activities, pleasant service. They coped very well with requests for gluten-free food and no seafood. My original departure was cancelled due to tropical storm but they contacted me, arranged a new date that suited me and helped me sort my transport to and from Halong (from Hanoi and to Ninh Binh)
