The boat is really nice and very clean. The staff is very professional, nice and very polite. They really did a great job to celebrate my husband’s birthday by decorating in the room and a special table and cake at supper. The manager, the assistant Manager Sarah, our server Tony were all great and very helpful.

Great Service by the crew

Great cruise by Dora Cruise The scene of the Bay is amazing. The service on the boat is really good. I would like to thank Jerry who took great care of us during the 2 days in board. Food is good. The points to improve are: - Wifi - activity on daily boat (Hay Viet village is not interesting) - Night activities after dinner

Great cruise!

We thoroughly enjoyed our 1 night, 2 days on Dora cruise. The bus that picked us up from Hanoi was amazing! It was like being in first class! Once we got on the boat from the tender it was straight into a delicious set lunch. We were in room 202 which was a bit more expensive but worth it for the panoramic views. Denis our waiter was lovely and so attentive and thoughtful bringing our son some ginger tea to help his upset stomach. The activities of kayaking and jumping off the boat swimming were lots of fun. All the staff were excellent. Highly recommend this Dora cruise!

Great staff

The staff are all amazing, the boast was in good condition, a few small wear and tear things, but nothing that detracts. We looked at so many cruises and I think at this price point they are all similar, except the dinners were buffet which I was not expecting, and they were just average buffet. The lunches were great. Breakfast buffet was also average but I think they were doing the best with what they had and expect they would all be similar. The experiences were great and it is an amazing place. Also be aware that they go through Lan Ha Bay, not Ha Long-all similar scenery and actually less boats and people in Lan Ha Bay.

Good cruise!

So many choices to choose from for a cruise at Ha long bay. We spent a lot of time looking for the right cruise and we're glad to have picked Dora. The crew was very nice, friendly and professional. And the food was great. We opted for the 3 days and we do not regret it. 2 days is way too short. Thanks to the crew for a great experience
