Choosing this cruise was a nice choice. There are only 4 cabins so each room is big. Our family of 4 had a tranquil journey in Halong Bay. Heart warming customer service from the crew. All in all, it was memorable.
If we book this boat trip, do we have the boat to ourselves or are there other guests on the boat? Thank you, Erin
