Hanoi/Ninh Binh:2-Day Halong & Bai Tu Long Bay 5 Star Cruise

4.9 (258 verified reviews)

Before you book

  • The itinerary names Tuan Chau Marina as the boarding point, not the Ha Long International Cruise Port that most cruises here use, so confirm the pier with the seller. Check-in is at 12:30.
  • Not included: the limousine from Hanoi (8:00) or Ninh Binh (7:00) at $25 a person, drinks, insurance and a $19 charge the operator calls government VAT.
  • Peak season, 1 October to 30 April, adds $13 a person. A single cabin adds $80, and Christmas, New Year and national holidays carry a surcharge.
  • The operator needs every guest's full name, date of birth, nationality, gender, passport number and visa expiry date in advance. Not suitable for wheelchair users: the cave is reached by tender and stone steps.
  • Storms can close the bay at short notice, mostly June to September. Free cancellation ends 24 hours before departure, so ask the seller before you book whether a closure gets you a new date or a refund.
