Asked by Lily · 10 months ago
I'm interested in booking May 24th, 2026 for the 2day/1nt cruise for 6ppl. We're planning to be transported from Hanoi to the port but want to know if we can be driven to the airport right after the cruise so we can fly to DaNang. I want to know what time we'll be off the ship and how long it'll take to the airport so I can find out what time to book the flight. How much would the transfer cost total and what time would we be at the airport and when should i book my flight after the cruise.= (how early should we be at the airport to ensure we don't miss our flight). Thanks in advance!
1 answerAAnswered by Annie · 10 months ago
Dear Lily, For your group of six, I recommend a private minivan for the most comfortable transfer experience. It is USD 225/van/round trip Hanoi - Halong - Hanoi airport for 6 people and you will reach the airport at around 14:00 - 14:30. Best regards, Annie (Ms.)

Asked by Inchara · 10 months ago
Hi, 1. Is there a surcharge for booking on 23rd December (2D/1N) cruise? Are there any other charges that are not included in the 205$ per person offer? 2. Instead of being dropped back to Hanoi old quarter, we want to go to the Hanoi airport. Is that possible? It would therefore be Hanoi old quarter - Halong Bay - Hanoi airport. 3. Does the junior suite have a bathtub?
