My group of 8 did a private group tour to Ha Long Bay with QA and it was one of the best experiences that we had in Vietnam. I had personally already been to Vietnam before but we did an overnight trip which I thought was too long. This was PERFECT for our group.
We have a mix of Vietnamese speakers and English only speakers and QA went above and beyond to accommodate us. We had a birthday AND a proposal and he was not only great about making sure we were well educated on Vietnam history but also was great at taking candid shots that my family and friends will cherish for a lifetime.
If you're booking a 1 day tour to Ha Long Bay, I highly recommend booking with Ha Noi Green Travel and also requesting QA as your tour guide. The boat was huge for the 8 of us and the food was good, views were out of this world beautiful.
I'll be recommending QA and Ha Noi Green Travel to all my friends who are visiting Ha Noi!

This is a well put together Day Tour, with stunning scenery. The only downside is the long bus journey to and from the port, if travelling from Hanoi.
I would recommend this day tour to anyone visiting the area and there are many companies which basically run the same trip.
We had good communication from the Tour Operators prior to the day and throughout the entire day our guide "Phong" was exceptional, with the way he organised everything and made things easy and straight forward for everybody. He communicated very well, considering he was dealing with many nationalities.
The food (lunch) was served once we got on board of the boat, and this was a very large meal consisting of various dishes. - (so be prepared and don't have a big breakfast.)
We then started the activities which were fully enjoyable. The cave was extraordinary yet was very busy as everyone seems to arrive at the same time. (which basically happens on each activity)
If you wait for the masses of people to pass, you can obtain some great pictures.
The Kayaking and Ti Top Island were time limited and very crowded, yet Phong did his best to ensure we were ahead of most other tour operators during the day.
You are provided with a small meal on you return to the boat, this would be my only only negative comment about the entire day. I felt that the small meal should have been given at lunch, and the bigger meal in the afternoon. As for two of the activities there is quite a few steps to climb, sensible footwear recommended.
A very enjoyable day, and the journey back to the port with the sun setting really made it. (more varied music would better suited on the boat, as they only seem to play about 5 songs on a loop, which were not suited for all ages.
"Phong" really enjoyed the day, well done-!!!

No picture can capture this magical bay. It was an extraordinary experience going round the bay and into the islands hidden caverns. Despite our boat being full, our guide Sunny made the trip feel intimate and adventurous, delivering hilarious quips and fascinating insights at every stage of the journey. The size of the cruise means you can enjoy a luxury experience onboard while meeting new people or relaxing in your own space. We were told to see Ha Long on a small boat but this felt like a far more serene way to explore it. Your luggage is safely looked after and food/snacks are readily provided with alarming frequency! Will definitely come again. I highly recommend asking for Sunny when you book - he gave our trip a really special shine with his humour, joy and professionalism.

Lily was an awesome tour guide and our driver was top notch. Lily provided great information on Halong Bay and has a wonderful personality. She and our driver are definitely 5 stars!
The unfortunate part of this tour is having to wait around for other passengers who can care less about making people wait for them. We had many passengers that were late for their pickup and late coming back to the boat. Lily did a great job of expressing how their tardiness affects other passengers but ultimately these passengers are self centered and generally don’t care about people waiting for them.
Additionally we picked up a random group of 12 passengers on our boat that were loud and smoked on the boat. They were nice people but it would’ve been better to not have these extra people on our boat.

We had a great day touring beautiful HaLong Bay, thanks to our wonderful guide who went out of his way to make sure that everyone was comfortable. His helpful mini history and science lessons on the areas we traveled through and sites we saw greatly added to the day making it a more meaningful trip. I am sorry to have lost my notes so I can’t thank him and our driver by name! Pickup was clearly communicated and on time as was the itinerary for the day. We were impressed by the bus driver’s skills safely navigating the narrow streets between hotels and were glad not to be at the wheel! We greatly appreciated the efforts to reduce trash pollution at the bay by banning plastic bottles and love our souvenir glass water bottles that were provided as alternatives. The meal was also impressive, especially considering the size of the ship’s galley and the amount of people being served. Thank you Hanoi Green Travel team for a lovely day!

Overall it was a good day, although I didn’t feel like I came away knowing a great deal more about Halong Bay than when I started.
We were going to be collected first from Hanoi, and knowing the scoop by now (3rd tour since being in Vietnam) I asked if there was any way to be collected last. I was grateful for the flexibility to avoid the additional hour for my kids sitting on a bus collecting the rest of the group, although it meant getting a taxi to a specific meeting point.
The journey to Halong Bay was comfortable and relatively quick along the new highway. The stop off was incredibly busy with barely enough time to get a coffee due to the immense queue. Our bus was totally full, luckily we got to sit together as a family but there were other couples or groups that had to be split up.
We had a good lunch on the boat with lots of variety. Then did three activities: caves, row boat and island step climb. Given it was a Sunday all activities were crazy busy. The cave walk was painfully slow to start with as hundreds of people went through ahead of us (the caves were incredible though!). The row boats were fine but there was constant fear of knocking a novice kayaker off through the small tunnel entrance. And the hill climb was totally crazy as was slowly crawled up 421 steps to the summit amid hundreds of other tourists.
Given all the people though the views were stunning and when you could look past the many boats gathered at each port the scenery was amazing.
We arrived back in Hanoi around 9pm - which was about 3 hours later than I’d understood from the tour info on booking. Not a big deal except we had a pretty hungry child on return.
Our tour guide was professional and helpful, but our group was so big and his microphone so quiet that we missed most of what he was telling us during the tour.
I know this all sounds a bit negative. I’m sharing the bits that weren’t great. Overall we enjoyed the day and are so glad we visited this iconic and beautiful part of the world.

This tour was amazing! All stops included are worth visiting even though everything is really crowded, which comes with a breathtaking nature such as the Halong Bay. Also, the tour is well organized and the pick up and drop off was on time and easy in communication.
Apart from that I need to mention our amazing tour guide Chuong, also called Sunny. He has such a warm and happy charisma that reflects his name perfectly. He makes some nice jokes that loosen his interesting facts about vietnames culture and information about the Halong Bay.
10/10!

The trip to Ha Long bay was great. Everything from the hotel pick up, the delicious family style lunch on the boat, the hike to the Tip Top island view point (or swimming), kayaking / or being paddled around, and a visit to the Sung Sot caves. However I wouldn’t do this day trip again. There are so many boats full of tourists doing the exact same itinerary at the exact same time. So each stop was crowded and busy and not really that enjoyable. Our guide was okay. Some good jokes initially but his knowledge of the geological formations in the area and other interesting facts were limited at best.

I did the trip by myself. I was very grateful for how easy the organisation was. I was picked up from my hotel, and a day before I got a 15 min time frame in which the bus came. We never had to wait for long because of the good organisation of the trip. The lunch was very delicious (and more than plenty).
My tour guide Sunny was amazing, he made the long bus ride ( 2 1/2 hours in one direction) durable by telling a lot of interesting things about Vietnam, particularly Ha Long and Hanoi. He was very kind and it was fun to be with him. He is very experienced and knows a lot about the history too and his English is quite good.
I would have loved to stop at some island with a beach where there were no or less other tourists.
We left at 8am and returned at 9pm. I think the price is great for what you are getting.

The whole trip was very relaxing. Our guide did not haste us, but sometimes we could not understand him because of the accent. The boat was quite comfortable, even had two restrooms on it. In one day we saw most of the famous spots of the Bay, including a beautiful sunset on the way back. As for the food for the lunch it was nice, but we had to pay for the drinks. I can really recommend the trip for a one day excursion from Hanoi.

Hi,
I saw another of your day cruise that goes to Thien Cung cave and the floating village but it costs $192.53. There is a big difference between that and this cruise at $75.30. Can you tell me what the difference is (other than the places visited are different)?
Written 9 November 2019
Hello, I'm Son of Hanoi Green Travel. I think you should check again I think you are confused with another company, we don't have any day cruise 192 USD and our tour is only 51 USD and according to you talking about the Thien Cung cave, this is a standard tour only about 45 USD If you need more information can contact us
Thank you so much
