Amazing Sena Cruise!

We enjoyed and were satisfied Lan Ha Bay cruise when sailing with this cruise. The ship is very pretty with its vintage and Indochina beauty. Interesting activities, especially, since we had the opportunity to put on Ao dai at the dinner. If you are seeking a professional and luxury cruise for Ha Long Bay, this cruise is the right choice.
