I have done the 3 days trekking, sleeping in family houses. my guide was Zo Zo: she lead me to beautiful trekkings, hosted me in her house with her family, cooking for me delicious food and always being available for any necessity. I suggest you to perform the trekking with her.

Great communication with our trip organizer. Our boat was by Theatre Cruises and we even got a room upgrade. Food and service on the cruise was really good. The mix between activities and spare time on the boat felt reasonable.

The trip was very well organised. We really enjoyed our trekking, the homestay, and the guide was great - very informative, helpful, nice and friendly personality. Thank you!

It was an amazing tour! The Tourguide was great! He explained everything very good. We had an amazing day and got a perfect impression of the Halong Bay.
