Love Halong Bay
Effective throughout the day, excellent accommodations with very comfy mattresses, wonderful staff, and a fantastic tour guide. Site is undoubtedly breathtaking.
However, The suite was somewhat smaller than it looked online, the food was mediocre but still good, and there should have been more nighttime activities. The beverages were also a little pricey in comparison to other establishments.
