We are travelling to Hanoi on a cruiseschip and we will arrive on the 6th. We would like to do a day cruise or overnight cruise but the itineraries don't match with our arrival or departure hours. We arrive the 6th at 11:15 am and leave the 7th at 7:00 pm. Are there any options for out situation? Thanks in advance!
Hi Davi! We understand your situation. In this case, it's quite risky for you to take the overnight cruise as your arrival time too close with the departure time of overnight cruise on 6th. However, as you depart on 7pm, 6th, a day cruise is a totally possible choice if your ship depart at Halong International Port or Cai Lan Port. The day cruise usually depart at around 10 am and arrive at 5.30 - 5.45 pm from Tuan Chau Port (only 15 - 20 minutes driving to Halong International/ Cai Lan Port).
You can consider our best suggestions for day cruise below:
- Amethyst Day Cruise - from $65/person
- Jade Sails - from $99/person
Hello! Are there any overnight boat cruises closer to Ho Chi Minh City? Most of them seem to be closer to Hanoi. Many thanks, Cynthia
Yes we have the mekong delta cruise, please check detail for offer.
I am looking to book a Ha Long Bay overnight cruise for 1 pax, departing 14 November from Hanoi for 2 days and 1 night. I would like to know what options there are and what the prices are (including all charges), especially for the Indochina Junk, Dragon Pearl Junk. Additionally, I would prefer a Bai Tu Long Bay or Lan Ha Bay route with activities similar to the Dragon Pearl Junk. My budget is around 100 USD.
If you travel alone there is a single charge and the budget will be higher than 100usd. And the cheapest one you can check for Renea Cruise with price about 190 USD.
I am coming to Hanoi on business from 15th July 2024. I was thinking of arriving on `14th July Morning and take a 2 day 1 night cruise to Halong bay. Can you suggest a good vessel (Company name) within $150-$ 200 range with best facilities and modern rooms and whom should I contact for booking. Thanks
