After a long research with which company we would do the Halong bay cruise, our hotel finally booked for us with Tonkin cruise the Gardenbay Luxery. And we were not dissapointed! We just booked a normal standard cabin. But uppon arrival it seemed that our cabin had a little problem with the sanitary. So we talked to our guide Nam and the cruise manager Kuong ( i don't know if i'm writing his name well) and they upgraded us to a cabin with private balcony on the upper deck. Everything we asked them was never to much. The cruisemanager Kuong is so a nice person and very custumor friendly! We realy had a good time during our 3 days even when the weather was bad ( we had 2 days of rain), Kuong and Nam did all their best to reorganise the itinarary so we wouldn't miss a thing. On the bus from Hanoi to the port, Mr Nam let us introduce us to eachother and that was a good thing. Because we met some very nice people and made even new friendships during our 3days trip on Halong bay. I realy suggest to take the 3 days / 2 nights tour because on the second day you go with a day boat to the non touristic area of halong bay / bai tu long bay. There you have the chance to swim and kayak and even fishing. We gzd a great time! Thx Mr Kuong & Mr Nam. Kind regards, angelique & Kabir

We stayed 2 nights 3 days on board the garden bay 2.. what a fantastic time we had.
It was a fablous experience cruising through Halong Bay and the weather was great.
We had the most friendly host Chung, he was a happy freindly guy , and informed us thoroughly of every day planned..

The crew were very friendly too.
The food was beautiful on board very authentic...
The cooking demo by Chung was great fun.. we learned how to make springrolls then they were cooked and served with our bbq.

The day trip was fantastic exploring the floating fisherman's village, and on the 2nd day we went fishing on a smaller boat kayaking through limestone caves and had the most amazing lunch..
Nam was hosting the day boat cruise.. very friendly guy too.

Overall it was an amazing experience with garden bay..
Rooms were very clean and bed comfy.. boat is a little old and could do with a bit of maintenance.. paint ect.. but the experience overall over shadows that.

I would recommend upgrading to balcony view as it's the most amazing opening that door in the morning and sitting out on your deck chair while cursing through to the next stop..

The only thing I would suggest garden bay have is some entertainment after bbq/dinner.. music / games ect..

Thank your Chung & crew for making our trip so memorable.. also chung is a great photographer.. he was very happy to take photos and took some amazing ones too.

We booked this cruise after out Hanoi hotel reccommended it and it did not disappoint. From start to end the trip ran smoothly, our guide was fantastic and all the activities spaced out nicely. The meals on board were amazing (lots of food!) and special compliments to the chef for the fruit and vegetable art! All the staff were amazing, always friendly and helpful. We paid a little extra for a cabin with a balcony which was so worth it. All health and safety was sound and we felt completely relaxed. We made some lifelong friends and would recommend Garden Bay cruise to anyone.
