Belinda S
Rated 5.0 out of 5Amazing cruise
We had an incredible stay on the Anthena cruise ship. The staff, in particular Lily and Tonny were welcoming, professional and fun. Everything ran smoothly from pick up, organised activities, meals and general service. The rooms were large, the meals were extremely generous, you could never go hungry and the amenities were clean. Activities included a walk through caves, a beach visit and Kayaking through caves was a high light - watching the monkeys in their natural habitat was fascinating. Couldn’t have asked for more. Would absolutely recommend including this cruise in your Vietnam holiday.

We had a wonderful trip! The cruise was clean and well-maintained, and the crew was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful. A special mention to Lily, who was always smiling, kind, and happy to help. She really made our experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommended!

Its was a great experience. Staff was friendly. Especially Ms. Lily. She went beyond her duties to keep us company and help us understand the culture. Enjoyed the painting session in the cruise as well.
