Colonial-style ship. The cabin was comfortable. We booked 1 night which was a bit rushed. The food was average but plenty of it. The excursions were crowded but the view from the boat was exceptional.

I stayed on Sena Cruise for 2 days. The boat and staff are faultless, food was pretty good. I enjoyed the ship while cruising, so it would be better if it moved for a longer time.

Booked 1 night 2 days on Halong bay. The location was charming. We went kayaking and visited a cave on the island. Our Premium suite was spacious and well furnished. Food was abundant and delicious. The staff remembered all guests diet and served excellent food. It was a worth trying experience. Recommend this cruise! Lots of boats at a time.

Bai Tu Long Bay with Treasure Junk was much better than in Halong Bay. The area is peaceful and less crowded. The crew was really friendly, especially Andre, who was always cheerful. Love the vegetarian food. Recommended!

Excellent experience with few guests and cabins. The ambiance met our expectations, intimate and comfortable. Our cabin was not too big but tidy and clean. The staff, especially Harry was super friendly and helpful. Food was superb. Definitely recommend for those who prefer privacy.

It was our first trip to Vietnam and Halong Bay was definitely highly recommended. The scenery was fantastic. The tour with Grand Pioneers was well organized and smooth. We were totally relaxed throughout the tour. The cabin was as advertised. The staff was attentive and friendly. The food was superb with alternatives for my seafood allergy. Thank you very much.

Such a great relaxing trip! My husband and I chose Halong Bay at the end of our tour so we can totally unwind. It did not disappoint us at all. Comfortable bus transfer, friendly and attentive staff. Service was top-notch. No complaints! Highly recommend.

The customer service was outstanding from start to finish. Activities were well-planned, and the schedule worked perfectly for both families and groups of friends. Will come back!

My wife and I were on our honeymoon trip. Orchid Trendy was our best choice. The staff were accommodating and very caring. Louis was attentive to details. The food was incredible. Will recommend Orchid Trendy Cruise.
