Real experiences from real travelers
The 25-minute flight was the best money we spent in Vietnam. Seeing the limestone karsts from above gives you a completely different appreciation for the scale of the bay. The pilot was professional and the landing on water was so smooth!
We booked the flight and cruise combo. It was perfectly organized. The seaplane ride was short but spectacular, and the transfer to the boat was easy. The cruise lunch was delicious. Highly recommend booking the package.
The views are breathtaking, truly unmissable. My only critique is that 25 minutes goes by very fast! I wish there was a longer option. But for the price, it is a unique experience.
I was nervous about small planes, but the Cessna felt brand new and very stable. The views of Titop Island and the fishing villages were incredible. A must-do.
The water looks so green from above! We got amazing photos. The staff at Tuan Chau Marina were very helpful with our luggage. A premium experience worth the cost.
Our first flight was delayed due to fog, but the operator communicated well and got us on the next slot. The view is magnificent. Don't forget your sunglasses.
Booked through this platform and everything went smoothly. The electronic voucher worked perfectly. The flight itself is magical—like a movie scene.
My husband surprised me with this for our anniversary. Taking off from the water is such a cool feeling. We combined it with a sunset cruise afterwards.
