I went in expecting good food after reading some of the reviews here but was disappointed. There was no shortage of food but the food was average at best. Rooms were dated. Towels provided in the room had brown stains on them. Airconditioning in the room wasn't working well, which made the hot summer night uncomfortable. Staff were friendly and... More

We booked the two night/3 day cruise because with the two day cruise, after the bus trip to Halong Bay, then home again, we figured that we'd only get two half days on the junk. We made the right decision. Over 20 guests left on the second day, leaving just us, for several hours. Then another couple with two children... More

We, 4 adults, booked a 3 day / 2 night cruise on Glory using Asia Trip Advisor. Had no problems in making the booking, and quick respsonses to all emails. The deposit paid in advance then balance paid in Hanoi the day before the cruise. We found the boat to be very comfortable, the bedrooms and ensuites are surprisingly large... More

Excellent Experience. I have done the "Ha Long Bay" cruise before, many years ago, and I can definitely say without a doubt this is one of the better operators out there, especially in view of the price. Excellent value for money. My wife and I took a 3 day 2 night cruise in early April 2012 and had a fantastic... More

Initial experience wasn't great; we went from Hanoi (4 hours) by bus to Halong bay but found out there (after another 4 hours waiting) we couldn't go because of bad weather (had to go back again 4 hours to Hanoi). Went 2nd time (2 days later); and this time the weather cooperated and we could go. Halong bay itself is... More

WE, as a group of five adults did the 2 day 1 night in Halong Bay with Glory Cruise with Susu as our excellent guide. The bus ride was the only minus, with my advice being: "Do NOT sit in the back seat of the bus if you have any back/neck issues", We found the trip home much more comfortable... More

The boat has seen better days, but in a akzeptabelem condition and has just been re-varnished. The food on the ship was very good and the rooms are well on the restaurant deck. room 201 to 204 The three day tour was well organized. Unfortunately, the bay is very dirty and the beach is a joke during the tour. More

We did an overnight stay in a junk boat in Halong Bay. The scenery is amazing. The staff on the boat are very nice and the rooms are surprisingly spacious given they are rooms on a boat! The bathrooms are also huge for a boat. The water is very calm, cant tell you are on the water. Would recommend Glory... More

We did the 3 days/2nights in early February. It was very well organised. The weather was cloudy all the time and a bit drizzly. The guide said that is normal and it's always like that this time of the year, little chance of sunshine and blue skies. The food was plentiful, with many courses, most of them local and delicious,... More

I did a 3 day (2 night) cruise to Halong Bay with Glory Cruises. I had a fantastic time. I am vegetarian & was worried about the food. I needn't have worried as it was superb. The 8 course lunch soon after we boarded set the tone for the food for the rest of the trip. Service was superb. All... More
