Exceptional experience. I am really impressed by the professionalism of the staff. The transfer bus was so comfortable. The room was clean, spacious, the food options were the best, as a vegetarian I always feel « left out » but at this cruise I had so many options to chose from. It was such a peaceful cruise.

We absolutely loved our time on Doris. The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful. Brian was a character, making mango daiquiri on request. Michael was incredibly helpful and was able to tell us a lot about the wildlife in the area. The food was amazing (sometimes a bit more than needed) and all of the days trips were great. Glad we did the 2 night cruise.

Nice boat with friendly and helpful crew. The boat taking you to and from the boat took 40-60minutes which was a bit more than expected. Food was ok, but the views were amazing. Nice and clean rooms.

BEST Ha Long Bay Cruise
Our trip with Doris Cruise Line was amazing. Everything was flawless from start to finish. The communication was extremely easy for pickup and drop off. The bus was right on time and picked us up right outside our hotel. The bus was extremely comfortable and quick. From there the tender from the pier to the boat was quick and easy. The staff was extremely inviting and enthusiastic. The food during our stay was excellent. There was a wide variety for all appetites. Our room was fantastic and the views from the balcony were surreal. The entire boat was clean top to bottom. The location the cruise went to was very secluded during the day. We were worried about this because many travel blogs and forums said the Ha Long Bay cruises are over crowded with ships and not worth it. The Doris cruise was not like this at all. We spent a lot of time searching for a cruise and there were many to choose from. Don’t think any more, JUST BOOK IT!

Honeymoon suite was incredible, huge and beautiful, very large outdoor private terrace (though semi overlooked by next door). Great experience, though would have liked more time cruising (we had a 45 minute tender boat transfer) and as all these cruises, tried to pack too much activity into a short time and sadly even Lan Ha Bay was busy with lots of rubbish in the water. Food was good including lots of vegetarian options. Overall very good.

Staff were very friendly and organized. Activities were fun but wish there was something other than squid fishing at night as it was not in season and you were not going to catch anything. Food was good but not a lot of variety.

Lovely boat and lovely crew as well! There are some others like Elite which look a bit more modern but this has a nice colonial feel. Also, it’s not as big so make sure where your room is for the noise.

Service was simply amazing. Crew members are very friendly and helpful. The only thing that frustrated me during my stay was roaches. They were on the ship, and also in my room. We caught 3 little ones in our room on day 1. Cruise management has to take action before the infestation gets worse.

The cruise ship is luxurious - the rooms have big windows and the view is just wow. They try to accommodate your dietary preferences, the activities are pretty nice. My only critical feedback is that “limo” they put us in for transfer to Hanoi was not very comfortable ride.

Loved Halong Bay, Doris ok
Fabulous staff, wonderful trip. Tat was a great host, very sweet. Our butler Annie was lovely. The room was tired and really need updating however the private balcony was great! The most disappointing thing was the spa. It wasn’t accessible via the top deck bar area and you can’t see anything when sitting in the spa. Also on day 2 it was green!! Awful, we didn’t go in on day 2. Good on the buffet each meal was really good. The day trip to the village was great!
