Lan Ha Bay cruise overview
The three day, two night sailing on Erina Cruise, a ship with 27 cabins. The second night is what separates it from the overnight trip: the ship carries on past the day boat routes, and the itinerary picks up Lan Ha Bay, Viet Hai Village, Ba Trai Dao.
What the extra day buys you
A two day cruise gives you one afternoon and one morning on the water. Three days gives you a full middle day, which is when the tenders reach the parts of Lan Ha Bay that the crowds do not. You also get a second evening at anchor, which is the part most guests remember.
Cabins and price
Erina Cruise has 5 types of cabin on this sailing. Prices start at $290 per person in low season, based on two adults sharing. High season runs from October to April and costs more; the table on this page shows the exact figure for your date before you book.
Booking
Pick your date and cabin above. Ava confirms the cabin and your Hanoi pickup within one hour of booking. The road transfer between Hanoi and the pier is quoted separately unless the itinerary says otherwise.

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.
