Halong Tour Expert offered us this Halong Phoenix Day Cruise! My friends and I enjoyed our Halong Bay day trip very much. The pick-up was smooth although it took a bit long to collect all guests at rush hour. The cruise is new, nice, the food was delicious, the crew staff were friendly, Bamboo boat trip was nice. We highly reccommed Halong Tour Expert and this day cruise if some one does not have 2 days – 1 night for Halong Bay.
Thank you

Great choice for Halong 1 day trip!
We had a great and smooth experience booking our day trip to Ha Long Bay by Jimmy – Halong Tour Expert with the best deal. This was a great trip across Halong Bay. The boat was beautiful, the food was great, and the staff was kind. We thoroughly loved the varied activities, which included trekking to Ti Top Island, swimming, wandering around Hang Sung Sot cave with a guide, and kayaking in Hang Luon. It was an amazing experience that we didn’t want to end! Highly recommend this cruise. Thank you.
