Lan Ha Bay cruise overview
Swan Cruise 2 days/ 1 night is a Bai Tu Long Bay quiet value cruise selected for travellers who want a clear overnight cruise plan and local support from Ava Travel Hanoi. Swan Cruise is a Bai Tu Long Bay cruise for guests who want quieter scenery and a friendlier value option than many central Halong routes.
Why choose Swan Cruise 2 days/ 1 night?
The appeal is the slower pace, less crowded water, and a practical overnight programme with meals and activities included. This product page is written to help you understand whether the cruise fits your travel style before you reserve a cabin.
- Best for: travellers who want fewer crowds and a more low-key bay experience.
- Main strengths: Bai Tu Long Bay route, less crowded feel, good value.
- Before you book: Transfer logistics can differ from Lan Ha Bay cruises, so confirm pickup and pier details with Ava.
Cabins and who it suits
Cabin names and layouts vary by operator, but the main choice is usually between a standard sea-view cabin, a balcony or higher-deck cabin, and a larger suite or family setup. Couples should usually prioritise balcony position and deck level. Families should confirm bedding, child pricing, and whether connecting or larger cabins are available.
If you are choosing between several cruises, tell Ava your travel date, group size, budget, and preferred comfort level. We will compare live availability and explain whether Swan Cruise 2 days/ 1 night is the best fit or whether another Halong, Lan Ha, or Bai Tu Long Bay cruise would suit you better.

- Ask us to confirm whether transfer from Hanoi is included or quoted separately.
- Tell us about vegetarian, vegan, allergy, honeymoon, birthday, or mobility notes before confirmation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers for planning a Halong Bay or Lan Ha Bay overnight cruise with Ava Travel.
Halong Bay is approximately 160km east of Hanoi, usually about a 3 to 3.5-hour drive by expressway. Ava Travel can arrange shared shuttle or private transfer from Hanoi and confirm the exact pickup time before you book.
Lan Ha Bay is the southern extension of Halong Bay, near Cat Ba Island. It has similar limestone scenery but often feels quieter. Many premium cruises operate around Lan Ha Bay for a calmer overnight route.
A 2-day / 1-night cruise works well if your schedule is short and you want the classic overnight experience. A 3-day / 2-night cruise gives more time for kayaking, swimming, remote areas, and a slower pace.
The best months are usually October to April, when the weather is cooler and drier. Summer can still be beautiful, but rain and storm changes are more common, so Ava Travel checks weather and operator updates before departure.
Most overnight cruises include cabin accommodation, onboard meals, entrance fees for the scheduled route, and activities such as kayaking, cave visits, swimming, cooking class, or squid fishing. Drinks, spa, tips, and transfers depend on the cruise package and are confirmed before payment.
Send Ava Travel your travel date, group size, and cabin preference. We check live availability, confirm the best current price, explain inclusions, and help you complete secure checkout once everything is clear.
