Wonderful way to see a spectacular part of Vietnam. Our cruise was relaxed and a lot of fun. The staff on board and throughout were great -not too pushy and became part of our group. Pinkie especially was a star and made the experience a top notch one.we were well looked after and the cruise ticked all the boxes and more in terms of food, safety and hygiene etc... best part was the size of the group. We had 14 people and quickly started to enjoy each other's company and learn about lots of different backgrounds, countries and cultures. There was also enough space to have quiet private time. Recommend this experience, Pinkie especially many thanks. Your local knowledge and management skills made all the difference.

Halong bay is spectacular and calypso cruise was a great way to see it! The boat and rooms were very comfortable and modern (and air conditioned!) and the crew were friendly and helpful. The crew made sure we were able to see all the sites despite having to get back to Ha Long early due to a typhoon. Our tour guide Tham was fantastic, very helpful and knowledgeable. Highly recommend this cruise!

Emma C 13-03-2017 Verified Purchase
I’ve just returned from the 2 night 3 day cruise and I absolutely loved it! What a spectacular part of the world. It’s like being in a fairytale. The calypso cruiser is not to big and not too small, it is just perfect. We only had 10 guests aboard my first night and 15 the second which made for a more personalised experience. The boat has old world charm but is still clean and had everything I was looking for. I like bed the beautiful top deck to relax and soak in the views. The activities were fun and well organised. The bed was super comfortable and I could see the islands floating past from my pillow!
The staff were fabulous. I had two incredible guides over my stay and I must make a special mention of Tamh who went above and beyond when I found myself in a bit of a cash debacle. She sorted a solution all the while making me feel calm. The captain and crew were aldo lovely.
I recommend the 2 night 3 day option ad you get to go swimming in the outer bay which you cannot in ha long itself. Thank you so much!

I did the 2 days/1 night package as part of a group tour. I had a great time. Unfortunately it was quite gloomy during our experience but you can’t control the weather. We did the kayaking experience which was so much fun. It was nice to see the beautiful setting from a kayak. The next day we started the day with Tai Chi on the sun deck. Then we visited the Canh Son Cave. We had a lovely time. Over the two days we enjoyed great food and drinks. The staff was definitely generous with the amount of food served. The food was delicious. The cooking demonstration was fun too. We also enjoyed happy hour at the bar and then some! Overall a great experience and a great way to see Halong Bay!

We had a great time on the Calypso. The food was outstanding highlighted with magic French fries that had a tint of coconut, succulent fried shrimp, and fish cakes. The guide, Thaam, was very friendly and responsive to all our needs. Recommended for all as this was a great value.
