We did an overnight cruise which well and truly exceeded our expectations. Rooms were clean and tidy, boat was in overall good condition. The tour guide and staff were amazing and would go out of their way to make sure everyone is comfortable. Food service was top quality, at the start I mentioned I was unable to eat seafood, the onboard chefs had no problem with this and were happy to cook individual meals to meet everyone’s likes and dislikes. All activites were great fun especially the squid fishing in the evening. Overall we loved this cruise and would be very keen to do it again if we are ever back in Vietnam.
We are a familly of 5 people booked a two day one night trip with Swan Cruises and really glad we did it. Kien picked us up and supported us during the tour nice Guide.
