My wife and I did this trip last year. As suggested by Alfred Molon, there
are plenty of operators in the 'Old Quarter', north of Hoan Kiem Lake. We
used Handspan located at 80 Ma May Street for the Ha Long cruise. They
offer one or several nights tours and other adventure tours. Their prices
were reasonable and provided an excellent boat and food for the cruise. I
would use them again. You can Google them on the Internet. Happy travels.

I'd be careful of having any clothes made in Vietnam. They don't seem
to last.
