We had the best time on this cruise! Lots of cool stuff to do. The rooms were really nice and comfy. The staff was super friendly and made us feel at home. They made sure we had everything we wanted. Definitely go for the 3-day cruise! Big thanks to Henry, Ken, and Andrew – they were so cool and took great care of us, making us feel like buddies! First day, we went kayaking in a beautiful bay and ate delicious food. Second day, we rode bikes to a cute town and learned about Vietnam. Last day, we explored some caves. It was just the right mix of chill time and fun adventures!
