Good: "Ha Long Bay is the first reason that we go to Vietnam. "

Bad: " Our taken boat has very short trip. The boat started at 12 pm and stopped for lunch at around 1.30 pm. We though it would continue after lunch but it didn't. The tour and staff on boat always urged us to pay more during the trip like to buy the fish from fish farm and they will cook for you. When you finish the eating, they will charge you the cooking and service fee. And also advised tourists to hire small boat to look around which also need additional cost."
