Robert gave us the best day! We had a great day tour in Halong Bay with Robert. He was so informative about Vietnam for my 6 kids. He was attentive, kind, patient and knowledgeable. He went above and beyond sending us so much information on where to eat and suggestions of things to see after the tour. He is the best photographer, suggesting wonderful spots to take pictures. We felt at home with him and he made our day so fun and easy! My 3 year old got a rash and he helped us figure out what to do and offered to help us get medicine at a pharmacy! Robert personally made the tour the best!

Fantastic Experience for our family with Robert on the private tour We had an amazing time on the private tour of Ha Long Bay. Robert was an especially great guide, who did a fantastic job explaining different aspects of the day, while teaching us various bits about language, culture and food. We are a family with 6 children between the ages of 3 and 16, and Robert did a great job making it an awesome experience for every age. The kayaking was a lot of fun, and worked for every age. And the kids (and adults) had a great time in the cave. The private tour worked great for our family, giving us flexibility on schedule (we were running late in the morning), and the route that our boat took was away from the large crowds and never felt very busy. The food was great for lunch - much better than I expected. Shrimp, squid, fish, crab, rice, fruit, spring rolls, etc. It was really a great day, and Robert helped to make everything really nice for our family. I would 100% recommend.
