Answered by Cindy 3 weeks, 6 days ago
Dear Mark Deniger, Thank you for your question! Please be advised that you must get on the pier at between 11.30 - 12.00 and it is about 1 hour drive from GOT ferry to your cruise ship pier. To avoid any delay, I would like to suggest you a cruise from Halong instead where is only 30-minute drive to your cruise ship pier. You can consider Paradise Elegance, Aphrodite. Or if you like the itinerary of a cruise to Lan Ha Bay, you can consider Stellar of the Seas. This cruise departs from Tuan Chau and goes to Lan Ha Bay - the same itinerary with Ginger cruise, Peony cruise. If you take Stellar of the Seas, you will surely get back to your cruise ship by 1.00pm. I hope to hear from you soon and please let me know if you have any other inquiries. Best regards, Cindy (Ms.)

Answered by Jolie 3 weeks, 6 days ago
Dear Lorraine Knott, Thank you for your question. I am so sorry that the cruise's shuttle bus can only pick up and drop off within Hanoi downtown as the airport is around 35km far away. Hence, you can take the shuttle bus one way from Hanoi at US$ 20/person, and then on the way back we offer a private car straight to the airport at US$ 100. You will reach the airport at around 14:00 - 14:30. Should you have any further questions, please feel free to ask us! Best regards, Jolie (Ms.)

A memorable trip to Halong Bay on Heritage Line Ginger Cruise. The crew team is caring and friendly. They treated us like royal. Our cabin is beautiful and had a wonderful balcony. Lan Ha Bay view is speechless and we would definitely choose 2 nights if they had.

The bay view is poetic and magnificent. The room of Heritage Line Ginger Cruise is spacious and includes enough modern amenities. The ship has a nice design and fewer cabins which is a huge plus. Recommended!
