FAQs

Is the Halong cruise luxury class?

Yes. We only work with 5-star or boutique-luxury cruises with private cabins and fine dining.

Is Ninh Binh a must-visit?

Absolutely. Known as the inland Halong Bay, it's stunning, peaceful, and offers a non-touristy experience.

How far is Ninh Binh from Hanoi?

It’s about a 2–2.5 hour drive. Transfers are private and scenic.

Can I skip Ninh Binh and fly to Da Nang instead?

Yes, for that we suggest our 5N/6D or 6N/7D itineraries covering Central Vietnam.

Is this package ideal for couples or families?

Both! We offer kid-friendly options and romantic touches like candlelit dinners or private boat upgrades.
