I went to Halong Bay with my mom. Although she is a Vietnamese she havent't ever visit Halong Bay before and I was grad that she loved the tour very much. Indochine is very suitable for her with the Indochine style. Food was highight, very yummy with full of seafood. The crew team was also very helpful and always smile with us at any time. The itinerary was quite boring but it's okay with my mom as she cannot walk too much. Kayaking is a great experience.

Everything was great. We enjoyed every moment on board. Just at minus that the route is quite boring. We wanted to visit the sung sot cave and island but just kayaking through the cave. However the staff explained us well so we understood. Will come back!
