FAQs
To fully experience Halong Bay, a three-day cruise is the best option for the following reasons:
- Diverse attractions: The program includes 3-5 places to visit, from limestone caves to fishing villages, islands, and pearl farms.
- Extra time: 3D2N cruise takes around 48 hours with an extra day (compared to 2D1N) to explore further the bay.
The main differences between the 3D2N and 2D1N cruises are the duration and price range. If you don't mind about travel time and budget, then definitely a Halong bay cruise 2 nights will be the best option for you.

Hello! We are hoping for a 3 day/2 night cruise in Halong Bay & we are open to the boat or itinerary but we do prefer a smaller boat. We are hoping to leave either December 26 or December 27.

Thank for contacting us, your travel date in peak tourist season so small boat is hardly available but we will try to looking for it and get back to you.
Hi we are starting our World trip in Vietnam. Few Days in Hanoi then onto a cruise for 3 days 2nights.6-8th Feb 2025. We would prefer a less tourist area thinking of Bai tu long rather than Ha long. Which boat would you recommend, after a bit of old style but with a touch of luxury. I’ve been looking but the choice is too big. Cheers Dave
For the unique itinerary now only Grand Pioner offer that but the boat is a bit big. You can have look at Ylang or Prince, Princess boat.

Hi, We are looking for a 3 day /2 night Halong cruise in June. 2 adults 2 children 12 & 16 yrs, We would prefer a newer boat, connecting rooms. My daughter has diffiuwith some food especially seafood so we need a boat that can accommodate. My son is a very big eater so we need a boat that has decent portion sizes. I would like kayaking in light and Dark Caves to be included in the itinerary and we prefer a quiet location. Non smoking boat is also preferable. We have been looking at 4 and 5 star boats with pick up from old Quarter in Hanoi. There are too many options. Can you help?
