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,

The bed was very comfortable. The excursions were too crowded with boats and people. Spacing it out better would make them more enjoyable. There is a lot of pollution and trash in Halong Bay. In order to make this a luxury experience, an effort to clean it up should be done. The staff was very nice. We enjoy our cruise!
