  What an unbelievable day we have just had. Firstly we were lucky enough to have the most gorgeous weather, it started cloudy but by midday we had clear skies. Do was our guide and he was perfect. He constantly checked on us to ensure we had everything we needed and gave us information about the area! There was a great jacuzzi, bar and plenty of sunbeds/chairs for everyone to relax. We were able to kayak twice, once in the morning and once in the evening, and swim twice. The kayaking in the evening was in a perfectly secluded spot, just as the sun was setting! The tour was so well planned. Lunch was great, plenty for everyone and even snacks for the sunset too! If I could give it 10/10 I would! Thank you so much.

  This was an EXCELLENT tour. So appreciated getting picked up and dropped off at our hotel and having everything arranged. Minh and his team of amazing staff on the boat made it such an enjoyable day. There are many tours to choose from and we are so glad we chose this one. Mainly because of the jacuzzi which was lovely to sit in and watch the amazing scenery. Especially on a cooler day. But there is so much more to enjoy than the hot tub. It was so nice to have an EV ride to Viet Hai village and choose to bike. We picked the fish foot massage which resulted is so many giggles and really soft feet! Minh’s explanation of the rice wine and the Cat Ba geography was so helpful in understanding where we are. It was great fun to slide down into the swimming area - I’d just recommend taking off your sunglasses first or they will end up in the ocean. It was so relaxing to kayak around one of the islands. The tea is delicious and the lunch and snacks that are included are beyond our expectations. So delicious. There is also a delightful bar if you’d like other snacks & beverages. We enjoyed our time so much we booked it again a day later!! The second time was just as enjoyable. Thank you Cat Ba Panorama travel for making such sweet memories of our time on your beautiful island!

  You dont have to search anymore! This is the boattrip you need to chose!! This is the perfect one day trip around Lan Ha Bay. We chose the one day trip and it was amazing. Minh is the perfect guide and pics you up in the morning and drives you to the boat. It is a big boat with hottub and different levels with lounge areas and a little bar. But dont worry!! There is very few people on the boat and you basically have it all to yourself. You make a few stops to go down the slide and swimming, stops at a local village for biking and fish massage and finally some kayaking. It is really awesome. You are not rushed and get basically the whole bay for yourself. I really recommend this tour if you are looking for something non-touristy but still luxury!!! 10 out of 10 🤩

  Highly recommend! The tour guide Minh was very good. Informative of local history and ensured that we were in time and informed on each step of the itinerary. The itinerary itself was great. Swimming, slides off the boat, bike riding in one of the villages, those little fish nibbling at your feet (optional to try if you dare), the kayaking, the floating village, the cruising around the rock formations, even the ease of pick up and drop off. Great day all around and it was a small group on my day which helped us maximise the journey. Boat was very nice and grand with three levels you could roam around, hot tub, lounges on top deck, just spectacular. A must do in Cat Ba

  WOWWWWW!! Honestly the best trip we have ever done and we have travelled far and wide. We did the 2 day, 1 night cruise around LAN Ha bay. We stopped at Viet Hai village, where we cycled around, we kayaked early morning when it was very quiet so no one around. The food was amazing and the staff were better. Our amazing guide Minh ensured we were happy, well fed and had the time of our lives!! If in doubt book this tour, I will tell everyone how fantastic it was!! We had a birthday on board and the. Tea arranged a cake, beers, sparklers and it was so so special. Thank you again for creating the most magical memories!

  We went for a full-day trip and it was really very nice. There was a jacuzzi, sun loungers, and sofas to relax. We made a stop to swim and do some kayaking, which was great. Lunch was very good and the staff was excellent. A very good experience, everything was great.

  Wonderful Experience with Cat Ba Panorama Cruise in Lan Ha Bay! I just had a one-day tour on the Cat Ba Panorama cruise exploring Lan Ha Bay, and I must say I was extremely satisfied! Biggest Pros: Attentive Service: The staff and tour guide were very professional and enthusiastic, always ready to assist guests. The boat was clean and well-equipped, truly meeting the 5-star standard. Exciting Itinerary: The itinerary was logically planned, taking us to beautiful, less crowded spots in Lan Ha Bay. The Kayaking activity at Bright/Dark Cave was very enjoyable. The swimming and waterslide activities were a big hit with my whole group. Sunset Party: This was the unforgettable highlight! Enjoying tea and fresh fruits on the Sundeck with a 360-degree view of the sunset over Lan Ha Bay was truly romantic and relaxing. Cuisine: The food lunch on the boat was delicious and diverse, served attentively. Minor Note (Not a big deal): Occasionally, the signal (Wifi/4G) was a bit weak out in the bay due to the weak waves, but this actually helps you focus more on enjoying the stunning scenery! Absolutely worth the cost. If you are looking for a high-end, complete, and relaxing cruise tour to explore Lan Ha Bay, I definitely recommend Cat Ba Panorama! I will be back!

  We highly recommend this tour. Our guide gave a really personal experience and made a special effort to personally speak with us throughout the day. He was fun and knowledgable pointing out many areas of interest along the cruise. There was also a really personal touch for my girlfriend Hannah who had a sore throught and although we were unable to stop at the pharmacy along the way, lozenges and honey tea were provided to her specially which was very thoughtful. The boat itself is top end with lots of beautiful places to sit outside and inside along the route. Our first stop was kayaking through beautiful caves into lagoons. Next music with jacuzzi and swimming and slides into the water which was really fun. Third stop we looked at local fish at a floating house and were then allowed to kayak off by ourselves for over an hour which was great. Lunch was also lovely we had a vast array of different dishes to suit all. We cant thank Do enough for a wonderful day and from looking at other boats offering similar cruises this was a level above.
