Great cruise. Incredibly well-prepared and informative about the bay. Some locations are guided by crew members as well. The cave was truly magnificent, and the excursions were enjoyable.

Excellent Ha long Bay overnight cruise

Hermes is a fantastic option for a peaceful, secluded overnight getaway in Ha Long Bay. The cabins are big, with only 10+. I was fortunate to reserve the Presidential Suite, which has a fantastic view, separate indoor and outdoor jacuzzis, and all-around window doors. Adore it.
Janet, the sales person at BestPrice, is very knowledgeable and kind.

@Stephen Hargreaves:

The price is seperated cabin price and transfer so that you can make decision on your own. For the flight depart at 16:00 am you will need a private transfer to go direct to the airport, the price will depend how many person will go
