Lan Ha and Ha Long 6-Star Cruise, 2 or 3 Days

About this experience

You arrive at Tuan Chau Marina between 11.30am and 12pm, and a speedboat takes you out to the cruise. Check-in is at 12.30pm with a welcome drink and a cold towel. Lunch is served as the boat sails toward Lan Ha Bay. The afternoon is yours: a swim in the open sea or the floating pool, the panoramic pool on deck, or a kayak on the calm water of Ao Ech Lagoon. Then the sunset party, a cooking class at 6.15pm, dinner at 7.15pm and squid fishing after dark. The listing also puts Dark and Bright Cave on the program, by kayak or bamboo boat.

Prices start from $179. You choose 2 days (1 night) or 3 days (2 nights) when you check availability; the 3-day option adds a second night on board. All meals, the cabin with its private balcony and bathtub, entry fees, kayaking, the cooking class and squid fishing are included. The gym is free to use. The round-trip transfer from Hanoi or Ninh Binh is $25 per person extra, and the spa, drinks and tips are paid on board.

Celebrating something? Honeymoon and anniversary cabins come at no extra cost, and the crew offers a birthday cake if your birthday falls on the cruise. Tell them when you book.

Tips before you book

  • Book 3 days if you can spare them. Two nights give the trip room to breathe.
  • Ask for the honeymoon or anniversary setup at booking. It costs nothing extra.
  • Add the $25 transfer if you come from Hanoi or Ninh Binh. It drops you right at the pier.
  • Pack swimwear and gym kit. The pools and the gym are free to use; the spa is paid.
