Overview of Halong Bay Mid-range Cruises

Finding a cruise with great services at a reasonable price? Well, it’s not that hard to find the one that can satisfy you. The answer is right in BestPrice Travel's list of the best 4-star cruises in Halong Bay.

Halong Bay Mid Range Cruise

What are the differences between Halong Bay 4-star mid-range cruise and a 5-star luxury cruise? The 3 biggest criteria are the size, the price, and the facilities.

  • Cruise ship size: Most of the 4-star cruises are smaller than the 5-star ones. Only a few mid-range boats have 4 decks and have more than 20 cabins, there are usually 2 - 3 decks in this type of cruise and the number of cabins is just about 15 on average.
  • Cabin area: As the size of ships is not so big, there are not many cruises that can provide standard cabins at more than 20m2. They are still very comfortable as all the necessary amenities and facilities that you need are available.
  • Facilities & amenities: There are also a restaurant, a bar, a spa, and a large sundeck on almost 4-star cruises. A few cruise ships offer an outdoor jacuzzi, a mini golf, or a library so that you can enjoy your trip conveniently and joyfully.

 

Cruise Route & Itinerary

The itineraries for you to choose from when traveling with a 4-star Halong Bay cruise are diverse. There are 3 main destinations following the full-day, 2d1n, and 3d2n routes in the bay.

How to Choose A Mid-range Cruise?

Normally, the newer the boat, the more modern it is. Most of the 4-star cruises in Halong Bay were launched in the last decade, they are wooden boats with classic designs, narrow corridors, and small cabins. On the other hand, some cruises were launched in 2015 or newer with bigger steel boats, stylish designs, larger cabins, and modern facilities.

The price for 1 night on these new cruises is a little higher than the old ones, but with all the best experience they can bring to you, these boats are absolutely worth it. Some typical cruise names that can be mentioned are Sena Cruise, Calypso Cruise, and Starlight Cruise and you can book one of them with the cost starting from US $141/ pax.

Hi, we are two couples and did have a look at Cozy Bay cruise and Paradise Sails cruise and they look pretty appealing. Could you please confirm if these cruises are available for 27 and 28th November? Could you also please give us a few options available for these dates for a couple of budget cruises just so we can do a comparison and browse through them.

@Vijani:

Till now the cruise still available on your travel date so but Paradise Sails is a 4 star cruise so the price will be more expensive than Cozy Bay Cruise. If you are looking for another budget cruise there will be Oriental Sails available

Hello I am planning a trip to Vietnam for my honeymoon and would like to take a cruise in Halong Bay. It would be on June 1st for either a full day or 2 night 1 day cruise. Our flight leaves on the 3rd at 2am and we would like to spend some time in Hanoi before we leave, so I'm not sure if it would be better to take a full day cruise and enjoy more time in Hanoi or a 2 day 1 night cruise and spend the afternoon only in Hanoi. As for the cruise I would like one that goes to Halong Bay where we can see Sung Sot Cave or Thien Cung Cave as well as Trong Mai islet and Din Houng islet. As for the activities I would to go swimming and kayaking, visit a floating village or Titop island and do Tai Chi in the morning if we take an overnight cruise. Is there any cruises that offer this and how much would it cost? Thank you

Hi Rachael ,

If you have enough time i think 2 days 1night  cruise is more suitable and not too rush.

May I know more detail about time you arrive Hanoi on 1 Jun?
