Typically, each cruise provides 1 – 2 bottles of water for free every day, and you will not be allowed to bring your own drinks. So, if you want to stay hydrated, bring some money (the drinks on board are a little pricy)
It is also recommended that you bring a camera or smartphone with enough of storage capacity for photos and videos in order to make the most of your trip. Prepare some waterproof protection for them, as you will be doing a lot of water-based activities.
Finally, remember to bring any medications or toiletries you might need while away from home.

The kayaking was a good thing to do. There was good food. Both trips on the bus were clean and on time. Also, don’t bring too much stuff; the rooms have everything you need. Lee, the tour guide also speaks English well and can answer our questions. The cruise was big and well-kept.
Kate H –
The cruise was beautiful, the staff was nice and helpful, and the food was good as well. The view of Halong Bay was an amazing part of the trip. We took their limo bus to get there, which wasn’t very comfy but was fine. Alex and Lee, our tour guides, were very friendly and helpful.
Katie –
We only had a few days to spend in Vietnam during our trip to Southeast Asia, so our family took a short trip to Ha Long Bay with Dora Cruise. Lee, our tour guide, was good, nice, and cared about everyone. I want to go back…! Love to recommend to others.
