The ship was in good condition after the pandemic. We love our cabin which is spacious, comfortable and clean. The view from the balcony was nice.
Such a memorable trip! My family with multiple generations (my parents, 2 teenagers and 1 kid, and us) enjoyed the trip on Era cruise. My parents just chose the sampan boat at the Bright cave and relaxed on board most of the time. My children love kayaking and squid fishing. We had a great time together. Thank you very much for booking this cruise for us!
Halong Bay is the last destination on our Vietnam trip. The cruise provides a well-balanced program with activities and resting time. We went swimming in the calm bay, kayaking through Dark-Bright cave and joined an interesting cooking lesson. Would recommend everyone!
Impressive landscapes. Lan Ha Bay is magnificent. Era cruise team did a great job.
The crew pays attention to details and is very friendly. I have an allergy to seafood and they always made sure I was served with correct dishes. Thank you very much.
Era Cruise is modern and well-appointed. The cabin is extra large and provides enough amenities like your house. We enjoyed the food very much, very tasty, fresh and eye-catching. The crew member is enthusiastic.
We were lucky with the weather. It was sunny and the bay was blue-jaded. I am often seasick. However, the bay was so calm that I don’t feel too much shaking while on the boat. The trip was very relaxing.
My 2 little boys enjoyed the trip so much. They can kayak for hours yet the trip is a bit quick. They like squid fishing and making some rolls in cooking class. A lovely trip!
Food was yummy and the crew is always nice and polite. We are glad we’ve booked Era Cruise.
I’ve been to Halong and this is my first time on Lan Ha Bay. Lan Ha Bay is quite similar to Halong with lots of limestone mountains and very calm. Lan Ha Bay also has many boats operating now but the attractions seem to not as crowded as in Halong. Dark-Bright Cave is suitable for kayaking. Sitting on the bamboo boat is a bit boring I think. Highly recommend kayaking on the bay!
I have a nice time in Era with a nice cabin, good food, and friendly team. Thank you for the trip.
My family stayed for 1 night on Era cruise. We booked King Terrace on the 2nd floor and it is super large for 2 people. We found all things for a comfortable and convenient stay. The food on board is delicious and well presented. Wifi cannot be connected.
The cabin is very large and well-equipped. The cruise design is luxurious and modern. We went kayaking in a peaceful area. The sampan boat at Dark-Bright Cave is soothing but kayaking is more interesting.
We booked King Terrace Suite cabin and it was amazing. My family with my 3yrs girl was treated so well by the crew. They are very kind to my little girl and everyone. Love the service and scenery of the bay.
The room is very spacious and the bed is comfy. We would love to go to Halong bay every year for relaxation. Recommended!
Overall the trip was nice. The highlight was the staff, they were all warm and helpful. The food was okay, we asked for vegetarian food and they catered it very well.
A very special trip for us. Mai and Peter took care of us so well. Their team was also super nice and polite. Our room was clean and gorgeous. Would definitely come back!
The cabin and the view are both nice. The boat is clean and well-furnished. The food was excellent and served by friendly staff.
We are very happy with Era Cruise trip. Son is a nice man! Thank you for being so kind.
