🎶 Setting the Scene: Music and Ambiance
The music and overall ambiance successfully created the perfect celebratory and relaxing mood:

"I live in Japan and came across the Dolphin Halong Cruise on instagram. Reached out and was given options for our stay. We are staying in Hanoi and I opted for a day cruise. We have two kids aged 10 and 13 years old. We are also vegetarians and while it is a buffet style meal, we had a lovely set vegetarian menu. Every step of this cruise was lovely from the charter limousine bus pick up to the harbor, to the cruise and then back home. Food was AMAZING. Didn’t eat everything because it was so much. We had lovely cocktails that aren’t included but were well priced. My kids did their thing in the pool—I have to admit that we didn’t do any of the shore excursions. There was a cave visit, beach visit, another cave climb for a lively view of the bay. We stayed on the ship and rented a cabana—again very reasonably priced. Was a highlight of our vacation! Thank you to Fatima who took very good care of us and made sure we were satisfied. Hi go Lu recommend!!!!"
