About Ambassador Cruise

Operated by APC Group, it has quickly become a top choice for travelers seeking a premium yet lively overnight or day cruise experience, with a fleet that includes Ambassador I (46 cabins), Ambassador II, and the newer Ambassador Signature (39 cabins). Known for hosting up to 120-130 guests (making it more social and vibrant compared to smaller boutique cruises), it consistently ranks highly on TripAdvisor for its scale, entertainment, and value in the luxury segment.

3 Things We Love Most About Ambassador Cruise:

Largest luxury “floating hotel” in Halong Bay – With up to 46 spacious cabins (30–50 m², many with bathtubs and large balconies), twin panoramic sundecks, and capacity for 120+ guests, it offers a grand, resort-like experience complete with live entertainment, outdoor jacuzzi, and a lively atmosphere perfect for groups or those who enjoy a more energetic vibe.
Premium dining & entertainment – Michelin-inspired à la carte menus, fresh seafood buffets, international cuisine (including Indian options), sunset Happy Hour, live music in the piano lounge, and evening activities like squid fishing – all served in stylish restaurants with floor-to-ceiling bay views.
Great value high-end service in prime locations – Professional multilingual crew (including Filipino staff for excellent English service), exciting itineraries covering iconic spots like Sung Sot Cave, Titop Island, and quieter Lan Ha Bay areas, plus convenient departures from Halong International Port – delivering true 5-star luxury at competitive prices for larger groups or families.

Ideal for those wanting a luxurious, fun, and social cruise with plenty of onboard activities and nightlife, while exploring the UNESCO World Heritage wonders of Halong and Lan Ha Bay.
