Good experience but could be improved

The ship is definitely older but functional. Friendly staff and helpful. Bring water as they charge for it through the cruise (all beverages are for sale). They need to improve their timetable as all boats are trying to do the same activities at the same time leading to the sites being extremely crowded (the second morning the sites were empty!). Overall worth it but if I was to go again, I would do a longer cruise or a day cruise.

Staff and service was excellent, However our room was very cramped and the double bed suffered from a gap in the middle. The boat was in ok condition, the food and bar service was ok. I would recommend spend a bit more money and getting on one of the larger boats

The view was amazing and service was incredible. The only thing I wish was washroom can be separated by a door rather than a curtain

Staffs were all nice and friendly. Food and beverage were excellent. They also produced inexpensive food upon requests. The rooms were big, clean and tidy. I was so happy to have a bathroom with a big window, so that I could enjoy the view of Ha Long Bay while taking a shower. The wood structure was a bit outdated, but overall still quite cozy.

Very touristy activities and crowded. Some random staff shouting at me to get out of my room for checkout with an hour left to go! Could not speak English so he just waved his hand and shouted checkout checkout repeatedly! Food is ok for catering style and buffet. The views of Ha Long which is what you do this for is fantastic especially at night and in the morning sun.

Everything was fantastic about this overnight experience with Syrena Cruises. The staff were very attentive and nothing was a problem for them. We had a room with a balcony with a fantastic view of the limestone islands jutting out of the water. The meals were beautiful and we also did a cooking lesson with spring rolls. The activities were also great. We walked through a huge cave, swam at a beach and there was a chance to climb a hill to a temple. We also did tai chi early in the morning. I would definitely recommend Syrena Cruises.

Really nice trip made even better by the great staff. The only disappointing thing was the wait for the transfer back to Hanoi but otherwise a really highly recommended cruise.
