Excellent experience

xcellent time on Indochine, Y was great and very entertaining! Also Tom Cruise was funny and worked hard to make sure we were all happy. All staff were fabulous, especially the kitchen staff, dinner was excellent!

Great cruise - highly recommend!

We had an absolutely wonderful experience on the Indochine Cruise! Very organise crew and team, the hospitality and warmth from the crew. A special thank you to David (Manager) and Yi, who are very friendly, and always making sure we were well taken care of throughout the journey. The food was excellent. Our room was beautiful with balcony and bathtub with stunning views of the bay. The sundeck is spacious, clean. The anchored spot was so clear and inviting that we even took a jump into the water despite the winter chill! 😄 Bamboo boat ride was enjoyable and suitable even for elderly, while the cave hike was fun and rewarding, though we’d recommend that people with mobility challenges may want to stay onboard to relax.

Amazing November Cruise

A truly magnificent experience.
The boat is beautiful—well-finished and carefully curated. It doesn’t feel like a themed attraction, but rather something authentic and welcoming. The staff is extremely kind and attentive, always available to help. Huy, who leads the team, is very friendly. They accommodated all our requests without ever making us feel out of place.
This time of year is perfect: there are very few tourists, which allows you to fully enjoy the experience. The day on the boat is well organized, with a balanced rhythm of pleasant planned activities and moments of relaxation.
The cabins are lovely, clean, and spacious, with huge windows that let you take in the breathtaking views of the bay. The kayaking excursion included with the overnight stay lets you explore the islands up close and truly immerse yourself in nature.
Many thanks to Y, such a lovely guy!
Everything was absolutely wonderful!

A total change of scenery!

Ha Long Bay Cruise

Our trip began with an 8.00 collection from the Pan Pacific in Hanoi for the trip to Ha Long Bay and Indochine Cruises. Beautiful ship crewed by the most excellent and hospitable staff. Food was lovely and served in the most elegant dining room.
Room again was lovely and air-conditioned.
Activities included trip to Sampan and rowed through the rocks and caves, swim off the boat, Vietnamese cooking.
On the second day We started with Tai Chi on the sun deck followed by a trip to amazing limestone cave.
I would highly recommend HaLong Bay and Indochine Cruises.

Cruise between nature and Asian hospitality

An unforgettable experience. The scenery is dreamy and the Indochina cruise with guide Felix was exceptional. Great hospitality, food, excursions and attention to every detail. Then during the kayak trip we could also spot the white-headed plebiscite (rarest monkey in the world). Thanks for everything

Mar de Otero 24/07/2025

Amazing trip

From start to finish, our Indochine Cruise experience was absolutely fantastic, and a big part of that was thanks to Félix. He is the most kind, pleasant, respectful, and attentive person you could ask for. Félix truly brought joy to the entire cruise – always smiling, always ready to help, and making sure every detail was perfect.

A Perfectly Emotional and Joyful Day

I never thought I'd be so emotional on my wedding day. Thanks to Indochine Cruise and Ms. Tu, my special day was filled with joy and unforgettable moments. The live saxophone and guitar music created an amazing atmosphere during the reception, and the DJ kept the energy alive all night. The team's dedication and passion made it all possible. I'm incredibly grateful for the experience and would highly recommend Indochine Cruise to any couple planning their dream wedding.
