Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before booking your Halong Bay cruise

Halong Bay is approximately 160km east of Hanoi — about a 3.5 to 4-hour drive. All our cruise packages include round-trip transfers from Hanoi, so you don't need to arrange your own transport. We pick you up from your hotel.
Lan Ha Bay is the southern extension of Halong Bay, located near Cat Ba Island. It has the same stunning limestone karst scenery but receives far fewer tourists — giving you a more peaceful, uncrowded experience. Most of our premium cruises operate in Lan Ha Bay for this reason.
A 3-day / 2-night cruise is highly recommended if your schedule allows — you get a full day on the bay, time for kayaking, swimming, and exploring caves, plus a spectacular sunrise morning. A 2-day / 1-night cruise is a great option if time is limited and still gives you an authentic experience.
The best months are October to April, when the weather is dry and cooler. March and April offer warm weather with less rain. July and August are peak summer but can bring rain and occasional storms. We monitor weather conditions and will always advise you on timing before booking.
All meals on board, guided activities (kayaking, cave tours, cooking class), entrance fees, and return transfers from Hanoi are included. Alcoholic beverages and personal spending are not included. Check the "What's Included" tab above for the full list specific to this cruise.
