How much does a child cost on a Halong Bay cruise?
The short answer, from Ava Travel’s booking tables for 91 ships: a child aged 4 to 11 sharing their parents’ cabin adds a median of $139 to the cabin price for a 2 day 1 night cruise; children under 4 are free without a bed, and from 12 a child pays the adult price. Each cruise line sets its own child rate, usually as an extra bed price, so it ranges from $81 to $340 per child on the ships below.
How much is a Halong Bay cruise for a family of 4?
Two adults and two children (4 to 11) in one cabin cost a median of $567 for 2 days 1 night across the ships below, October to April. The cheapest is Annam Junk at $348. Not every double cabin takes two children: the booking table on each ship page only offers the combinations the cabin allows, and many ships also have family cabins that sleep four; see the best Halong Bay cruises for families.
