    The cabin is beautiful and the food rich. The visit to the cave and the kayak tour were a lot of fun. The scenery is breathtaking. We found the "cooking class" a bit disappointing. In 5 minutes you wrapped a ready-made mixture in rice paper, i.e. made spring rolls. That's it... You were also under time pressure the whole time and the times given were not kept. For example, you should appear at the tender at 7.30 a.m. and at 7.15 a.m. the bell rang, where to stay. That was a bit stressful. Nem, our guide could have been friendlier. Rather, he rattled off the lead without a joke or a smile. That was a bit of a shame, but that's probably how it is when you do this tour all the time...

    A wonderful trip and an absolute must when visiting Vietnam. The rooms in the boat were spacious and luxurious compared to hostels! Friendly and helpful staff and plenty of food. Great activities aided in the enjoyment and appreciation of the beautiful landscapes. Highly highly recommend this trip, this is the best thing we have done in a long time!

    The tour was excellent. The food was excellent. They also showed us the Pearl farm which was not mentioned in the itinerary. The room is neat and clean. The guide was good. The only negative that I can think of is the planning for viewing the sunrise. By the time they moved the boat from where we could see the sun the sun was already above the horizon. Basically we missed the sunrise in spite of waking up early and waiting on top. Thank Ding Dong our guide..
