Hello! I'd like to book a 2D1N cruise starting on 2 May, 2022 - I'll be checking out of my hotel (Hanoi La Siesta Premium Hang Be in Old Quarter Hanoi) on the morning of the 2nd. Is the transfer to Tuan Chau included in the price? Thanks!
Answered by Rosie | Mar. 26, 2022 11:49
Dear Roger, Thank you very much for contacting us. However, Paradise Sails is not yet back to the bay on your travel period. Could you please consider Paradise Elegance Cruise, which belongs to the same cruise company: https://www.halongbaytours.com/cruise/paradise-luxury-elegance.html? At the moment, Paradise Elegance is available on 02 May. The price for an Executive balcony cabin is USD 420/2 persons/2D1N including shuttle bus round trip Hanoi-Halong-Hanoi. Would it be okay for you, sir? We look forward to hearing from you soon. Best regards, Rosie (Ms.)
Asked by Smaran Shetty | Sep. 10, 2021 03:20
Hi, We are looking at 15th February for 1 night / 2 day cruise experience. We are two adults. Could you please share costs for the same? Also are there Vegan options? There was also a mention of Visa approval letter but int he exclusions it was again pointed out as something we would have to pay for. Can you please clarify on the same?
Answered by Jolie | Sep. 10, 2021 03:27
Dear Smaran Shetty, Thank you for your inquiry! Our offer of Paradise Sail is US$ 210/Deluxe cabin for 2 persons with US$ 30/person for the shuttle bus round trip from Hanoi Old Quarter. The cruise does cater to vegan food thus please kindly no worries about it. Also, we are glad to offer you a free visa approval letter. This is not a visa, you will use this letter and pay US$25/person for the stamping fee to get a one-month single entry visa when you arrive in Vietnam. Should you need any further assistance, please feel free to let us know! Best regards, Jolie (Ms.)
Asked by Daisy Ho | Aug. 25, 2021 06:54
Can my my family of 3 adults be in 1 cabin. if so, how much is it?
Answered by Cindy | Aug. 25, 2021 06:55
Dear Ms. Daisy, Thank you for your question. According to Paradise Cruise policy, each cabin on the cruise can house maximum 2 adults and 1 child under 12 year old. For your family, it is required to take 2 cabins instead and we can arrange them side by side. If you have any other questions please let me know! Best regards, Cindy (Ms.)
Asked by Joe | Aug. 16, 2021 05:25
Hello, is there any way to get to Cat ba island after the cruise?
Answered by Mary | Aug. 16, 2021 05:29
Dear Joe, Thank you for your question. To get to Cat Ba island from the Cruise pier (Tuan Chau), you can buy a ferry ticket at the harbor or rent a speedboat to save time. The departure time of the ferry from Tuan Chau after the cruise is 11:30, 13:30, and 15:00, and this is more cost-saving than a speed boat. If you have other concerns, we are more than happy to assist. Regards, Mary (Ms.)

Dear Mr. Lori, Thank you for contacting us and I am so sorry as it is impossible to add an extra bed into the same cabin on Paradise Luxury cruise due the cruise policy.

Dear Ms Julie, Thank you so much for your contacting us and I am so sorry as it is impossible to put an extra bed into Paradise's terrace suite cabin due to the limited of cabin size thus I am afraid that your kid will need to share the same bed with parents.

Hi. I can see that you are also providing Free Vietnam Visa approval letter. Does it only include for the cruise trip or can we use the same approval letter to visit other places in Vietnam?
Asked by melissa lee | Jul. 19, 2016 06:06
hi~ we're planning to visit there 11~12 August 2016. we're 4 adults and one boy(7 year old), 2 year baby. do u have any connecting room? so we can go in& out parent's room easilly during the stay.
Answered by Sunny | Jul. 20, 2016 12:09
Dear Melissa, Thank you so much for your contacting us and please kindly find my comments as below. 1/ There is no connecting room on Paradise cruise thus the only option available for your family is next door rooms. I hope it is alright for you. 2/ The best option is to book 2 deluxe or 2 deluxe balcony cabin and your 2 year old can share the same bed. We can arrange an extra mattress for your 7 year old if you need or he/she can also share bed in the second room. 4/ Shuttle bus transfer cost is US $ 35 per adults and US $ 30 per kid at 7 for a round trip transfer Hanoi hotel - Halong - Hanoi hotel. For this cost, I think you can consider to change to our private 7 seat car which is more comfortable for your family and we can arrange a baby seat if you need one. Best regards,
Answered by Sunny | Jul. 27, 2016 12:25
Dear Joy, Thank you for your contacting us. About the cruising route of Paradise Luxury cruise, it is not cruising on Bai Tu Long Bay but it is on Lan Ha Bay and Halong bay.

hi we are 4 adults and one children aged 13. suggestions for rooms?
Answered by Sunny | Jul. 12, 2016 11:09
Dear Surendra, Thank you so much for contacting us and due to Paradise cruise's policy, children from 12 years old will need to pay as an adult cost and cannot share cabin with 2 parents. Thus your group will need 3 cabins ( 02 double or twin + 01 single cabins). We can arrange these 3 cabins side by side. If you need some other suggestion for cruise with family rooms please let me know! Thank you for your understanding!
Asked by Sally | Jul. 11, 2016 01:52
Is there any room on Paradise Cruise that can stay 2 adults and 2 children (9 & 11)? Or connecting rooms?
Answered by Cindy | Jul. 11, 2016 04:38
Dear Sally, Thank you for contacting us and your family will need 2 cabins as no connecting cabins are available and Paradise Luxury cruise only allow for 2 adults+ 1 child maximum per cabin. However, as both of your children are under 12, you can get a 25% discount on the cabin. We can arrange the cabin side by side for you too. Best regards,
