Wonderful experience from the outset. Communication was excellent, pickup was ontime and very comfortable, the board / crew / food / suite etc are outstanding and the sights are just beautiful. I cannot recommend Orchid and this experience highly enough.

The boat is just beautiful, not too many people on board so plenty of quiet space. The staff are so friendly and happy. The food on board is good quality and a nice variety. A wonderful experience.

We ordered a bottle of wine to share with friends, a Chilean Chardonnay, and we didn't take proper notice of the price, turns out it cost us $150 AUD, which was a bit of a shock. The same bottle off the boat is around $30AUD. We learnt our lesson and enjoyed cocktails instead!

What I liked the most was the cruise crew specially Tim our restaurant server who was helpful and friendly. The cruise route was great and all the activities we had were wonderful.

We didn’t spent much time in our main boat!

Wow, what to say really. What a wonderful overnight stay on the Orchid Classic. The rooms are beautiful and filled with colonial charm (while still having great modern conveniences). TV, safe, power shower and bath. Five star service from all staff. We didn’t have to lift a finger from the moment we were picked up from our hotel to the moment we were dropped back. The food was delicious (every single course of the five course lunch and dinner and the delicious buffet brunch before disembarking). The itinerary is packed, but the staff make it feel very organic and we never felt rushed. We enjoyed the evening cookery and the trip out to the caves and the squid fishing. We didn’t do the kayaking, but this was personal preference and everyone who took part said how much they loved it. The best thing about the boat was the people - the staff were lovely and despite doing this everyday with high turn over it felt personalised, and that it down to the energy and loveliness of the very hard working staff. I could go on, but I will finish by saying that this smaller more expensive cruise is worth every Penny.

Nothing, but I myself would not recommend the jumping into the water if you are not a strong swimmer as the current is very strong - staff should advise of this

The boat is very beautiful, typical vietnamese junk boat style. Clean, comfortable, and spacious. Only 14 rooms on the boat makes for an intimate experience. Food is unbelievably good and they really adapt to dietary requirements. The day events are well organised and fun. Out of all the boats we saw on the bay this fleet looked the most looked after. Highly recommended 👌

The cruise was wonderful, we had a great time. The ship was beautiful, and the crew was extremely helpful and very friendly and nice. The food was really good, our compliments to the chef.

Nothing, it was a beautiful ship.

Lovely boat and the staff were amazing, super attentive and friendly and tried so hard to make everything amazing for everyone on board

The bay is so incredibly polluted you really can’t get a good view without rivers of trash getting in your way. On our “kayaking activity” we just kayaked through tons and tons of trash and polluted water. There was no way to swim in that and it was so hot all you wanted was to jump in the water but there was no clean spot to do that.

Absolutely amazing and could not recommend enough! A beautiful boat with incredible facilities and views and great activities to enjoy! The staff were amazing and went above and beyond to look after us! Tien, Cris and Sunny made sure our trip was perfect and we can’t wait to come back

Nothing!
