Never regret our 2 nights on Ambassador Signature. From start to finish, the staff was so informative and helpful. We booked the transfer service from Hanoi. The tour was smooth and quite comfortable. The meals were beyond our expectations. All the dishes suited our taste and they were nicely presented. James and Patrik were excellent. Love the experience!

Dear Vamsika, Ambassador cruise and Ambassador signature cruise all belonged to the same company with the same quality service and facilities. However, Ambassador Cruise is sailing in Halong route and Ambassador signature cruise is sailing in Lan Ha route...So technically different itinerary. Regards, Phoebe

Asked by Donna Dela Cruz · 7 months ago
Hello, My flight from Cat bi to Danang is at 1:15pm. Do you think it's enough time if I book 2days/1night cruise? Until what time is the cruise? And can you arrange private transfer? Thanks!
1 answerAAnswered by Phoebe · 7 months ago
Dear Donna, Our cruise package will end at around 10.30 Am and we can help to manage the private car from cruise pier to Cat Bi airport. The route take normally 45 mins to 1hour to the place so approximately you will reach Cat Bi airport at around 11.45 Am and it's ideally perfect for your upcoming flight. Regards, Phoebe
