We booked this through our hotel and were a little nervous as many reviews on line saying beware of scams and this had mixed reviews. However we needn't have worried our trip was probably the highlight of our tour around Vietnam. We got picked up from our hotel - bus journey is long and not great but I think this... More

We recently went on this Imperial "luxury" cruise in Halong Bay and it was a SCAM. Do not believe you are getting what you see in the brochure photos. You can tell that they simply want to turn and burn guests. If you are happy with sleeping in a less then luxury boat parked next to a bunch of other... More

This is a pure scam to make you pay more. We paid a lot more for nothing. We asked for a reimbursement after the trip but people managing... More

My husband and I have been backpacking for the last few months, and the whole family was meeting up in Vietnam for a reunion on the last leg of our trip. We decided to go to Halong Bay as one of our activities. After much research, we settled on the medium-priced Imperial, which was recommended to us by the staff... More

Back at the travel agency, I was offered a Halong bay tour with Imperial cruise. The brochure was attractive, the rooms look lovely, and tons of activities was promised to me, etc... As I boarded onto the boat, it immediately came to my attention that this was completely different from the brochure even though the boat's name was ''Imperial'' indeed.... More
