If my flight arrives at the Hanoi airport at 7:40am, can I make it to the shuttle bus?
Answered by Cindy | Dec. 07, 2020 10:14
Dear Tammy Tran, Thank you for your email! My name is Cindy and I am very happy to assist you with your trip plan! Regarding your question, please be advised that the shuttle bus leaves at 8.45 from Hanoi and it is 40 minute (without traffic jam) to drive from Hanoi airport to Hanoi city center. However, your flight might be delayed, you need to time take suitcases, get the car so please consider to rent a car go directly from the airport to Halong Bay. I hope my info would be helpful and please feel free to let me know if you have other questions. Best regards, Cindy (Ms.)

For the 3 day cruise, do passengers move to another boat, or stay on the same boat?
Asked by Samantha Sumarli | Jan. 16, 2019 12:25
Hi There. What is the cost of the shuttle? And can I check what time we will reach Hanoi? We have a flight to catch at 7pm and want to know if we would be able to make it on time.
Answered by Hana | Jan. 16, 2019 12:27
Dear Ms. Samantha, Thank you for your question. We offer free shuttle bus for President Cruise (limousine bus) and it will get back to Hanoi around 3:30-4:00pm. There is plenty of time for your onward flight, as it takes around 30-40 minutes from Hanoi Old Quarter to the airport. Best regards,

Ambassador Cruise is well appointed and modern. Our cabin has all necessary amenities as a 5-star hotel. Food on the restaurant was top-notch. Halong Bay is nice but a bit touristy and we saw rubbish in some areas. Wifi is weak.

Halong Bay is charming. We love kicking back on the sundeck at sunset and at night. Drinks are a bit pricey but pretty good. Food is 10 out of 10, lots of seafood and both Vietnamese and international dishes. Highly recommended!

My family stayed for 1 night on Ambassador Cruise. Our kids love the pool and kayaking trip. There were too many people on the beach but the hike to the top was nice. Food was delicious with options for both children and parents.

The ship is good but next time I will choose a smaller boat for more privacy and quietness. Halong Bay is breathtaking!

A big thanks to Halongbaytours team who were very enthusiastic to answer all of my inquiries. The trip was great. Everyone on board is welcoming. Buffet meals are varied and delicious yet sometimes the dishes are slowly refilled. Overall, we still had an unforgettable trip on Halong Bay.
