Exceptional service, stunning views, and amazing food!
A8145VZnatalieg, October 2026
had a wonderful experience with Tropical Cruise! Our tour guide, Ms. Jacy, was amazingly professional, helpful, and friendly. The cruise staff were exceptionally welcoming and attentive throughout the trip. The itinerary was perfect for anyone who loves water activities, nature, and peaceful, less crowded spots. On top of that, the buffet lunch was absolute perfection—the food was delicious with a great variety! Highly recommended

Really nice trip, Jobs was a really good guide and it was a nice experience. Don’t book this tour in Hostels tho. We booked it at „The One Hostel“ and they took a lot of money out of our pockets

Best lan ha trip

We had such an amazing time with the tropical cruise today! Our plans got changed because of the weather but it ended up being an incredible tour. Lan Ha bay is gorgeous and our guide, Binh/Bobby/Baby Boss, was so fun and provided lots of information on the tour, making everything clear and easy. Cat Ba island was insanely beautiful and the cave was so interesting and educational. Kayaking was the highlight of the tour and the boat party gave us a perfect ending. Thank you to the team! 10000% recommend this tour
