FAQs
What are the differences between 3 Days/2 Nights (Legacy Journey - Odd Date) and Day Boat - Even Date?
2 Grand Pioneers vessels organize 2 different 3 day/2 night programs. The differences are below:
- Visiting area:
- Legacy Journey: Bai Tu Long Bay & Halong Bay with stops at Thien Canh Son Cave - Cap La - Da Xep Nature Park - Vung Vieng Fishing Village - Sung Sot Cave or Titop Island
- Day Boat: Only Ha Long Bay with stops at Sung Sot Cave - Trinh Nu Cave - Pearl Farm Exhibition Center - Luon Cave
- Schedule:
- Legacy Journey: You are not transferred to a day boat for excursions on Day 2 as the Grand Pioneers vessel sails continuously on the bay without returning to the pier.
- Day Boat: You are transferred to a day boat for excursions from 8:30 am to 3:45 pm on Day 2 while Grand Pioneer Cruise returns to the pier to drop off 1-night guests and pick up new guests. You will not have access to your cabin during this time but your cabin is guaranteed to be safe.
