    Not fantastic for the price

    I’d start by saying that the service was great, from both the agency and the staff on the ship. This was booked and hosted by a travel agency who was excellent (Mr Kevin at Local Tours Vietnam). Very responsive and available, could not recommend their service more. I got a partial refund back for the trip. Tl;dr - take your money elsewhere unless they improve drastically, or pay at least quarter to half the price as that’s what it probably cost. Unhygienic in some respects, bad food, sparse ship with the feeling of not a lot of activities (not completely true as there were a lot of opportunities, just didn’t feel welcoming in my opinion due to atmosphere and timing) The actual cruise is the problem. It looks quite pretty and modern from the outside, including the rooms. The feel disappears when you’re on the ship. Everything feels quite sparse, and it doesn’t feel like there’s much to do. The hygiene of the ship was questionable, and so was the food. For the higher price you pay, the ‘fine dining experience’ was everything but. In saying that, there was plenty of food, you would not go hungry. We were given part of a chicken skewer that was raw. Not great, but more than happy for them to chuck it back on the grill to cook through, which they did. The second time it returned, some parts of it was still raw. This is coming from someone who is happy to eat slop and undercook pork/chicken/fish to make it more tender. The chicken was raw, no questions about it. There were also some extra guests at breakfast if you catch my drift. We came back from kayaking to try to use the jacuzzi in the afternoon, but found that it was dirty. Only a minor issue, possibly from previous guests (1 group before us even though they tried saying two groups came through), and they responded quite quickly to try to drain/clean it, but could not use it in the end as there was no time to do so (draining took 15-30 minutes, without including fill up time. Time slot only 1 hour).

    Response from the operator: Dear Nicholas Yap , Thank you for your detailed feedback. We’re glad to hear you had a great experience with the agency and staff, especially Mr. Kevin. We’re very sorry that the cruise itself did not meet your expectations. Your concerns about food safety, hygiene, and the overall atmosphere are taken seriously, and we sincerely apologize for these shortcomings. Your feedback has been shared with the team to improve our service. Thank you again for helping us do better. Best regards Kevin (Mr)

    Oasis Bay 5-Star Social Adventure Cruise For Luxury Backpacker: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hanoi.

    How much does Oasis Bay 5-Star Social Adventure Cruise For Luxury Backpacker cost?

    +

    Prices start at $239 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hanoi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Oasis Bay 5-Star Social Adventure Cruise For Luxury Backpacker take?

    +

    Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Hanoi is not rushed.

    Is Oasis Bay 5-Star Social Adventure Cruise For Luxury Backpacker worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 51 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Hanoi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Oasis Bay 5-Star Social Adventure Cruise For Luxury Backpacker?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Oasis Bay 5-Star Social Adventure Cruise For Luxury Backpacker suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Oasis Bay 5-Star Social Adventure Cruise For Luxury Backpacker?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Hanoi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Hanoi and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Oasis Bay 5-Star Social Adventure Cruise For Luxury Backpacker start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Hanoi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Hanoi?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Hanoi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Ha Giang Loop 3-Day Small Group - from Hanoi, (Group/Individual) HANOI STREET FOOD TOUR, Incense Village Quang Phu Cau, Hat Village and Hanoi City Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Hanoi?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Hanoi?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Oasis Bay 5-Star Social Adventure Cruise For Luxury Backpacker?

    +

    Included: Kayaking or bamboo boat and Entrance fees; English speaking Guide/Cruise Manager; Lunch; Dinner; and Breakfast. Not included: Beverages, Tips and Personal expenses. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Oasis Bay 5-Star Social Adventure Cruise For Luxury Backpacker include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 828 listed pickup locations in and around Hanoi. Be ready about 20 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Oasis Bay 5-Star Social Adventure Cruise For Luxury Backpacker offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Oasis Bay 5-Star Social Adventure Cruise For Luxury Backpacker?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Oasis Bay 5-Star Social Adventure Cruise For Luxury Backpacker wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Oasis Bay 5-Star Social Adventure Cruise For Luxury Backpacker if the weather is bad?

    +
