Luxury Travel Vietnam to Recommend Safe Cruise Options in Halong Bay

Hanoi, Vietnam, February 24, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Ha Long Bay is a world heritage site and one of Vietnam's top tourist destinations. It is located about three hours east of Hanoi in the Gulf of Tonkin near the northern Chinese border. The emerald water is dotted with 1,600 dramatic limestone formations that form tiny islands.

Some 500 boats are licensed to take tourists on cruises. Many opt for day tours, while others prefer to sleep in overnight cabins on wooden junks, ranging from budget to luxury accommodation.

Our tour guide was great and a lovely, friendly man who spoke excellent English and taught us many things about local history and other events. Halong Bay is absolutely beautiful. Our cabin on second floor with a wonderful view, was great and very comfortable with good air conditioning. The food was fantastic, plenty to eat and the drinks were reasonably priced. We had no issues with security and felt completely safe, and even left our valuables in our cabin with a peace of mind, even though a safe was available. Our only regret was that we didn't do the two-night cruise,” said Mat, London, United Kingdom, a couple has just come back from Halong Bay on a private tour of Luxury Travel Company.
