Misleading advertising - I made this cruise for a few days, I was very motivated to do it. The pictures mislead a lot! The boat as the buses are in very bad condition. There is no communication during the transfer. They just left me near the pier, in the middle of the street more than an hour waiting. Only right above boarding time is that they contacted me. The guide is super attentive but the rest of the team is very distracted and little present. The food was very good and always paid attention to the various allergies and vegetarians (a great positive point). The tour is a little tired because the stops made are very tourist and very crowded!! Even the Kayak are a well pulled 20 minutes to render because the bay is pretty small and quick to see. The tour is sold as 2 days and 1 night but actually are 24 hours on the boat!!! On the second day I felt a lot of pressure to check out the room so they could clean it for 12h to receive more customers again!!! A constant stress on the second day, lunch being served at 10:30. The boat was very degraded. From the bathroom, the sockets that did not load, the deck with tables and chairs of different shapes.... The best of the tour were the people I met and with whom I had a lot of fun!!!

Not the best - The beds had bugs. The WiFi didn’t work well. The tourist stops were crowded. The food was good, but the guide was kind of awkward. I overpaid for this trip through the hostel, so it wasn’t a good value.

Disappointing Experience on sunlight cruise on the ha long bay - Disappointing Experience on sunlight cruise on the ha long bay I recently had the misfortune of experiencing the service on sunlight cruise on the ha long bay , and it was truly disappointing. The staff's response was subpar, and their attitude left much to be desired. The cabin room was in a deplorable state, with an excessive amount of hair and bugs present at night. Furthermore, water was not included with meals, which added to our frustration. What's more, the actual experience did not match the promises made on the website. I urge the administration to take these issues seriously and make necessary improvements. Failure to do so will likely result in losing customers. Our family's experience was a waste of both time and money. I hope that future guests will not have to endure the same issues.

Fucking mess. Pollution - While the guests changed and the ship was cleaned, they dumped their heavy oil-added dirty water in the sea. If I find any contact with the Environment Agency, I'll report them there.

One of the Worst Experiences of My Life - One of the Worst Experiences of My Life We were a group of 11 travelers considering a Halong Bay cruise. I had seen 5-star cruise prices ranging from $120–$190 per person, so when I came across Sunlight Cruises and their glowing reviews, I was intrigued, even though no pricing was listed online. I called directly and was told: “You’re in amazing luck! we have just 5 rooms left. Since you’re booking last minute and not using our transport from Hanoi (we had our own drivers), I can give you a special deal: $80 per person. But you must promise not to tell anyone on board.” It sounded like a great deal, an upgraded room with a balcony at a fraction of the price. I was proud of the negotiation. I gave my credit card to hold the reservation immediately. When we arrived, we realized that the beautiful photos we had seen online were of a day cruise, not the overnight cruise we had booked and instead of seeing dozens of people, we say 5 or 6 people, still, we were hopeful. That optimism vanished the moment we boarded. The boat was a filthy, rotting, bug-infested, sewer smelling pile of wood. The air conditioning only worked inside the cabins; the rest of the boat was sweltering, over 100°F (38–39°C) with 90% humidity. Worse, the minimal AC in the cabins was turned off in the afternoon, so we returned to a boat that had baked in the sun, easily over 120°F (45–50°C) inside. When we opened our cabin doors, cockroaches poured out. Across our group, rooms had 4, 5, 7, 7, and 8 cockroaches that we could see. The so-called “cooking class” was a joke: a quick demo of how to roll an egg roll using raw strips of pork and dry rice paper. That’s it. You roll, you tuck, and apparently, you’ve just graduated from Vietnamese culinary school. And as for the “balcony upgrade” I was so proud of? Let’s just say if you and another person try to stand out there, you’d better be on very good terms — because the space is barely wide enough for two people to stand shoulder to shoulder. Calling it a balcony is generous. It’s more like a wall-hugging shelf with a view… of disappointment. I could go on for pages, but I think the picture is clear. I’ve traveled to over 100 countries and never fallen into a tourist trap—until now. This one made up for lost time. To be fair, the food was decent and plentiful. But once we discovered the extent of the cockroach infestation, none of us could bring ourselves to eat. I personally fasted for over 18 hours. Bottom line: If someone offered me $10,000 to take this cruise again, I would say no without hesitation. It was 24 hours of misery. I can’t speak for their day cruise, but if it’s operated by the same company or owners, my advice is simple: Stay far, far away from anything associated with them..
