Answered by Amber | Jul. 19, 2023 08:34
Dear Debbie, Thank you for your inquiry and I'm glad to assist you with your trip.

I want to book the stellar of the seas cruise for 2 days and 1 night for 2nd (overnight) and 3rd May. I have a couple of questions: 1) What is the difference between the senior suit and junior suite? What would be the price for both? 2) On the way back to Hanoi we want to travel back to Hanoi by train on our own. Is there an option to only pay for the journey from Hanoi to Halong Bay? 3) We are likely not going to stay in the old quarter. We know that the shuttle bus will only pick us from the old quarter.

Asked by Maria | Jun. 07, 2021 09:10
Hello, may I ask if there is much difference between cabins on the first and second floor? Thanks!
Answered by Mary | Jun. 07, 2021 09:11
Dear Maria, Thank you for your interest in Stellar of the Seas Cruise. As you may realize that the Senior Cabin on the 2nd deck is a bit bigger than the Junior one on the 1st deck. Besides, it would be easier and nicer to watch the bay from a higher position. However, the furniture and amenities in both cabins are the same. Should you need further assistance, feel free to contact us. Regards, Mary (Ms.)

Hi. I'm confused. It says "Transfer from Hanoi to Dinh Vu Port and back (transfer time approximately 2.5 hours)" is in exclusion. But still, a full Itinerary says there is a limousine bus pickup from Hanoi. So... do you mean we have to pay for the limousine bus? If so, how much would it be? Thanks

I hope to hear from you soon and please let me know if you have any other inquiries. Best regards, Jolie (Ms.)

Answered by Hana | May. 01, 2019 02:28
Dear Mr. Abdallah Hussein, Thank you for contacting us with your inquiry! You can take the flight that lands in Hai Phong at 10:00am, from there it is about 45 minutes drive to Tuan Chau pier where Stellar of the Seas depart from. However, I just want to caution you of potential flight delays and you may miss the trip. It is best that you arrive in Hanoi the day before and take the shuttle the next morning. Best regards,

hi..... would like to book a cruise for3 day 2 nights around Sunday the 14/04/19 (14th April 2019) we are a family of 4 adults ( mum, dad and 2 tenagers age 15, 16) and 2 children age 7, 9 (total 6 people). I would like to book 2 junior suites next to each other with one double bed cabin other cabin with 2 larger beds. please confirm your actual departure date for this cruise,we would like a pick up from Hanoi hotel for all 6 family members .. and how long does it take to get from end of cruise arrival dock/marina to nearest airport being 'Hai Phong? as I want to get a connecting flight at 1 pm. thank you.
Answered by Hana | Feb. 10, 2019 09:39
Dear Mrs. Kennard, Thank you for your email and question! For your family, I recommend you to take 3 cabins in total as the price will be the same as 2 cabins plus 2 extra mattress. The cruise departs from Tuan Chau Pier and it takes around 45 minutes to get to Hai Phong Airport from there. I wonder if you can take a later flight? If you need to take flight at 1:00pm then it's a good idea to consider other cruises that depart from Hai Phong (and takes 20-30 minutes to get to Hai Phong Airport instead). For example you can consider Orchid Cruise: https://www.halongbaytours.com/cruise/orchid-cruise.html or Peony Cruise: https://www.halongbaytours.com/cruise/peony-cruise.html I hope this is helpful for you and please let me know if you have any questions!

My seafood allergy was well taken care of. The staff was dedicated and always smiled. Our butler Alice was knowledgeable and very helpful. The bay was polluted a bit by diesel and trash.
