We went on a 2 days 1 night cruise with Athena Cruise to Bai Tu Long Bay and it was outstanding! We had heard that Halong Bay was crowded so we opted for Bai Tu Long Bay which was fantastic and not at all busy. We really enjoyed the kayaking as we spent an hour paddling around the islands. The boat itself is fantastic and the food is so delicious. The staff are fantastic, they are so organised and nothing is a bother. They are very approachable and want you to make yourself at home. Highly recommend Athena to Cruise with.

We took the 1 night/2 day cruise option which was right for us. In real terms you're on board for 12 hrs and travelling there and back (from Hanoi) for 6 hours combined.Bags are taken from you on arrival at the cruise terminal and end up in your cabin.Cabins are lovely and luxurious. We even had a bath in ours!Our cruise manager Tim was first class and made sure we were kept busy in his engaging style. Tai Chi, massages, cooking lessons, trips to caves and tiny beach's, kyaking through the floating village, happy-hour!Great trip. Would recommend Athena.
