HALONG BAY, VIETNAM
Hands down Ha Long Bay has become the most magnificent places I've been to and it was made even better by a tour with Tun Travel.
After months of researching online for top level cruise to Ha Long, i came to current debts book with Tun Travel because that's what most people recommended. Booking at Halong Bay Cruises page
When I got to their office in Ha Noi, I was told that I should come back to check on my booking a day before the actual cruise since there wasn't anyone booked about the same boat with me yet. And if it should stay that way, they might have to cancel the cruise all together. Of course I didn't want that to happen. Ha Long was supposed to be the highlight of my trip and I couldn't accept the notion that I won't be capable to do that because there wasn't anyone else on the boat but me. It was an excellent that morning of my cruise date already had a couple booked, and the TUN agent eagerly put everything for me.
Finally the day of the cruise came, from the TUN office to Ha Long we boarded a shuttle bus which was comfortable. And we weren't herded like cows. With us were several tour guides who were the most fun!
Common sense says that most Ha Long Bay cruises offer the same program, so there isn't much different to what you will experience when investing in a $50 cruise to Tun's $137. But i think there is. With Tun Travel everyone seemed to obtain their money's worth and treated with a small something special. There's comfort, there's fun and no headaches nor hassles at all. Everything was put in order by the tour operator, all you want to do sit back, relax and relish the view.
I've been advised not to get any Ha Long cruise that's less than $100. And I would really like to pass that along to everyone else.
My cabin was cozy, I had the best sleep ever that night. The food was fantastic! Seafood galore! The best of this about all this is that I got to meet these wonderful people and share this experience with.
The TUN Travel itinerary included a visit to a floating village and the amazing cave.
If you are looking to experience a great time in Ha Long and get your money's worth, choose TUN Travel. You won't regret it.
