    Highly recommend the 2-day, 1-night Cat Ba cruise

    The 2-day, 1-night boat cruise with Cat Ba island was absolutely worth it. We had an excellent guide in Henry (Huan). He was fantastic, engaging us in great conversations, taking us to fantastic places, and snapping fun pictures! The crew prepared fantastic food, even catering to vegetarian preferences (one of us). The kayaking was great, and we had unique experiences like squid fishing at night. The rooms were very comfortable. I would highly recommend this trip Cat Ba cruise and cycling !

    Marvelous journey to experience the authentic and less touristy side of Cat Ba Tour

    We discovered Autour Asia through positive reviews and were not disappointed. We thoroughly enjoyed our Cat Ba trip! The activities, including kayaking and cycling, were amazing. Our group was private, creating a personal atmosphere with enough space for everyone to enjoy time alone or with the group. Our guide, Dark, did a fantastic job showing us the beautiful scenery, sharing background information, and being very accommodating and helpful with all our inquiries. The food was good and diverse, with many vegetarian options. We highly recommend Autour Asia, and especially suggest asking for ..View More
