A Great Time In Beautiful Cruise
So luckily we spent 2 days on Indochina Sails Junk. The various foods served were so amazing while we enjoyed the Halong Bay area, especially, when the vegetarian options were available. ‘Chang’ and the crew are so enthusiastic with us.

Pretty nice
I went with my partner to visit Halong Bay, staying for 2 days on this ship.
It is a pretty boat, with friendly 24-hour service, and very delicious breakfast and lunch (weaker dinner). Beautiful rooms, with a balcony overlooking the sea.
There is Wi-Fi but you don't get the Internet well; the TV is not in Spanish; The activities were good but the cold weather affected us a bit.
Great overall.
