Hera cruise 2 days/ 1 night
Hera Cruise (often referred to as Hera Grand Luxury Cruise or Hera Grand) is a premium 5-star luxury overnight cruise in Halong Bay and Lan Ha Bay, launched in 2017 and highly regarded as one of the most elegant boutique vessels in the area. Named after the Greek goddess Hera (Queen of the Gods, patron of marriage and fertility), the ship blends celestial-inspired luxury with the five universal elements (space, air, fire, water, earth) to create an intimate, sophisticated experience focused on comfort, attentive service, and stunning natural beauty.
The ship features 11–13 spacious luxury cabins (ranging from 28–55 m²), each uniquely themed with a personal story, private balconies (or full bay-view windows), en-suite bathrooms with bathtubs, premium bedding, and high-end amenities for ultimate relaxation and privacy.
Here are stunning views of the ship’s elegant exterior sailing through the emerald waters of Halong Bay:
