We really enjoyed the morning taichi on sundeck and our time in the fishing village. The staff were so welcoming and lovely. Excellent food and service. The cave tour being a little crowded was the only downside. What a fabulous trip. Thank you for such a great experience. We will recommend Victory Star to our friends and family. Keep up the good work.
We were pleasantly surprised with the quality of our experience on our 3N/2D cruise. The food was excellent and diverse. Our dietary limitations were happily accommodated and we never felt that we were getting less than those who were eating meat. The rooms were beautiful and surprisingly large (especially the lovely bathrooms). Most of all, the crew was extremely friendly, professional, and FUN. We were there over New Years Eve and had a great time celebrating with the crew.
The excursions were well organized. I think they were pretty standard fare for Ha Long Bay cruises. They took care to arrange things so we were never huddled with tourists from other cruise ships like cattle.
