Mrs. Till Cray Philippines Stayed 12/06/12 10:26

Good: "We have just returned from a 2D 1N cruise on the Marguerite Junk and it was very good.

Our guide from Hanoi 'Tien', was great and all staff were very accommodating and friendly.
The rooms were clean and comfortable, the food was great and plentiful and consisted of good choices.

Our activities - exploring a cave (quite busy and touristy), kayaking nearby the floating villages (fantastic), swimming (jumping off the boat to my kids delight!), squid fishing (not successful but interesting), and a cooking class (a bit of fun) were enjoyed by all on board.

Bad: " No"
