Canada"I miss Halong bay already, I will definitely return in near future"

Geresis Regal brings me so much fun and surprise. I cant imagine that kayak is the most exicting things in my trip, i did it with my new friends in cruise and they was talent and humerous. Hope i can back Halong again and stay longer!!

United Kingdom"A lifelong memory built with Genesis around Halong Bay, special thank to Mai"
From the accommodations (especially the balcony facing the harbor) to the staff (special thanks to our personnel Mai) to the well-planned excursions, the cruise amenities were beyond all expectations. A wonderful stay. It took me some time to decide which cruise to take, and I'm very pleased I went with Genesis. From the moment you confirm your ticket to the end of your travel, you will be incredibly well taken care of. I should mention that the cuisine was excellent - the course meals were delicious, and the garlic butter prawns were a personal favorite. Instead of taking time finding other tours, book with Genesis! You will not be disappointed.

Monaco"Just everything on point: the cruise itself, the crew, the accommodation, food, etc."
I went on a two-day, one-night cruise with my sister. Very well-organized cabin. The rooms were spotless and quite comfy. They presented a terrific, jam-packed program and kept to it. The meal was delicious. The personnel was always cheerful and trie their best to assist. Without a doubt, I would suggest this cruise.
Sasidhar
Germany"Good value for the price. Weather was not good but we enjoyed the trip"
The accommodation was well kept, and the crew from the ground to the ship was professional, kind, and happy. This cruise is highly recommended. We couldn't go into the cave because of the bad weather, but that's okay. We spent the time enjoying the onboard amenities which were enjoyable. The food was good, and special requests was available if necessary.
Jenelle
Australia"Genesis Regal gave us comfort and luxury services. Worth the money overall"
There aren't many vegetarian alternatives, but the team will do their best to accommodate your needs. The activities and the personnel are both good. This is highly recommended.

United States"Exceptional gorgeous Halong Bay. Will come back to see more of it"
Everything was fantastic, from the pickup in a fantastic limousine to the return to the coast. The personnel was quite polite, the manager was very happy, and the guide was very friendly. Extremely well-kept cruise. The rooms are really big and clean. Wonderful stuff to do, and I learned tai chi on the veranda with a gorgeous dawn. The food was wonderful, but there were just too many selections. During meals, the manager personally visits each table and requests food to be served. He is a fantastic vocalist, and he even encouraged us to join him. The guide is nice and entertaining, and he will make you laugh on the way to and from the airport. The front desk lady is very nice and friendly, constantly greeting me with a grin. I had fun squid fishing at night. A once in a lifetime opportunity
Leanne
Canada"Fulfilled trip with no mistakes, thank Tony for a great job hosting the trip"
Spending the day touring and traveling among the Ha Long Bay Islands is impressive enough, but sleeping on the boat among them and watching the Sunset and rise is an unforgettable experience. I joined a fantastic trip made even better by the crew of the Genesis Regal. Tony, our host, was engaging and amusing as he informed us about the islands and coordinated our numerous scheduled activities.
All activities were fun, and there was plenty of time for personal relaxation.
Another Wow element was the rooms. The accommodation was spacious, clean, and nicely designed, with views from every angle, including the bathtub (yes, there was a tub in the room) and the toilet.
Reet
India"Worth cruising to see the best of Halong Bay and enjoy luxury services"
My impression on staff of Genesis was really pleasant and kind. The pre-arrival help and prompt reaction by the Genesis representative were excellent. The cruise was brand new, with spotless accommodations and plenty of complimentary activities. The buffet offered a diverse selection of dishes, as well as vegetarian options. Overall, it's a really pleasant and well-managed cruise.

Singapore"This cruise is the highlight of our dream honeymoon vacation"
We picked Genesis Regal as our cruise for our honeymoon trip to Vietnam, and we thoroughly loved our two days and one night stay. Thank you to everyone on the team for the surprise honeymoon cake; we truly appreciate it!
Ming
Malaysia"Super friendly staffs, Nice Experience Onboard and cave visit quite interesting"
We were really thrilled to be upgraded to the VIP suite, which completely transformed our stay. The accommodation was stunning, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Halong Bay - it's impossible to beat that! The staff was fantastic, really polite and helpful. The bar was fantastic, and they remained up with us till the early hours of the morning to ensure we had a fantastic night. All of the activities were excellent. Thank you very much for a lovely vacation - one of the highlights of our trip to Vietnam.

Australia"Awesome! The crew, the food, the itinerary and even the guests with us"
This was our 3rd Halong Bay Cruise, and Genesis was by far the best! The staff - super friendly when we’re onboard which they treated everyone of us like a first class passenger. They made every effort to make sure that we were comfortable and enjoying the trip. Some cool activities while we’re onboard ensuring that we get the most experience while we’re cruising along the Halong Bay, including kayaking, cooking, fishing, cave exploring etc. The food on the boat was by far the best we've had.
The activities were top-notch and well-planned.
Konstantinos
United Kingdom"Relaxing trip... if you are thinking of booking Genesis, go ahead"
We had the finest cruise ever! Incredible view of Ha Long Bay, one of the most beautiful sunrises we've ever seen on a non-peak season visit. The entire check-in and check-out process was really easy, with the staff providing an excellent summary of our stay. There are several activities available, including a boat ride, canoeing, fishing, and swimming. The accommodation was very delightful, quite big, and the view of Ha Long Bay from there was spectacular. After a long day of commuting, the bathtub was ideal for unwinding. It was really beneficial that they provided commuting choices from/to Hanoi, making it easy to reach the port.
Everything was fantastic, with only a few suggestions for enhancements. I wish we had more time to rest and not hurry into activities right after lunch for a one-day visit. The food was delicious, but the amounts were little. I wish there was a wider variety of dessert selections. On the second day, when canoeing, there was a lot of trash in the water, which indicates that the bay is not well maintained. We experienced a lot of noise from the eating area upstairs throughout the night (probably while cleaning with a lot of furniture dragging on the floor).
Atith M
Cambodia"Thank Genesis Regal for amazing trip, I will suggest this cruise for friends"
My husband and I did a lot of research to find an ideal cruise to spend our first vacation together, turned out Genesis was more than our expectation! Everything, the detail on the ship nothing was old or worn, we had very helpful staff and the food was absolutely amazing, spacious cabin, fantastic Spa,... I cannot say enough of it!
Meg
Australia"Excellent services & good food - my best trip in Vietnam ever!!!"
The boat was spotless, and the view from our suite was breathtaking. During our 2D1N schedule, the crew was fantastic and really helpful! The area of the harbor we visited was particularly excellent since it was less crowded, and all of our activities were well-timed to avoid large groups from other boats. A big thank you to the crew for being so attentive and involved in all of the visitors' experiences!
Dennis T
Turkey"Memorable trip with my family with the help of Halong Bay Cruise Deals"
The hotel shuttle from Hanoi to the cruise center was seamless. We chose a three-day, two-night vacation to do more activities, including a speed boat ride to Cat Ba Island. The quiet town on Cat Ba island offered a wonderful experience, complete with gorgeous scenery while we rode our bicycles. We also went swimming at a secluded beach with breathtaking views. As it became too hot to swim, they even advised we go to another spot for more comfort.
Special thanks to our tour guides, Naomi and Trang, who were attentive, helpful, and sensitive in assuring our well-being throughout.
The devotion of all the staff made our stay unforgettable.
Jonna
Canada"Never knew Halong Bay can be that breathtaking & Genesis crew was awesome"
It was our first cruise with my elderly parents, and the trip was nothing but soothing, delightful, and wonderful! We initially reserved two rooms for a total of six people. The room's glass windows gave a fantastic view of Halong Bay, and the sunset from the balcony was breathtaking. I enjoy it when we sit on the sundeck together and watch the sunset. In addition, the staff was friendly and attentive to my elderly parents. Most significantly, all of the meals served on board were delectable! We thoroughly loved all of our meals, which were all served to perfection. The staff also demonstrated how to make spring rolls, and we had a great time making our own. There was also a cocktail show, which kept us occupied for a while. It was a great opportunity for the family to gather together without worrying about wifi or network disruptions and enjoy the luxury cruise. Thank you again to all of the nice and helpful crew members that made the vacation so memorable for my family and me!

American Samoa"My sis and I had a wonderful time with Genesis Regal, the food was very tasty"
It was my best halong bay cruise on Genesis Regal with Phi Phi, Alex, Nancy, Mai... The activities were superbly organized and the food was excellent. The only minor issue is the poor WiFi and TV connection... Special thanks to the crew for their tremendous efforts in making us feel at home... I will definitely recommend this cruise for friends!
