Without a doubt! Cruising offers an atmosphere that's just right for romance... cozy dinners for two, strolling on sundeck at sunset, drinking on sundeck in the night (even under the twinkling stars!). Most packages provide special services such as private function candle lit dinner on a private cave or lunch on a quiet beach. Some junk offer special programs for wedding ceremony or renewing your marriage vows.

Just enough for two or three day on the cruise though there is no restriction on how much luggage you can take onboard.

If you look on Vietnam map, you will see Halong lies in the Tonkin Gulf surrounded by many islands that made up Halong Bay. With its calm water, Halong Bay really acts as a shield that stops the entire violent waves, so it's hard to get sea sickness in Halong Bay.

Few routes that the junks cruise can be close to open sea that the junk was swinging up and down. But once the junk was surrounded by Halong Bay unique limestone islands, it became stable again.

Seasickness is not common on larger cruise ships as they are equipped with stabilizers designed to minimize the feeling of movement. If you should feel queasy, medicine is available from your cabin steward. If you are prone to motion sickness, you may want to consider consulting your doctor prior to departure.

Tip: When the junk gets swinging, do not walk around on boat to avoid seasickness.

Today's cruise ships are "one-class." Everyone can use all of the ship's facilities. The price of a cabin is based primarily on its size and location. Regardless of the category you book, you'll enjoy the same courteous service, menus, activities, and entertainment as everyone else on board.

Most cruises (ie: Halong Bay) have cabins that can accommodate up to 2 adults in one standard cabin except for river cruises where staterooms can accommodate up to 3 or 4 persons (triple and quad occupancy). There are limited numbers of triple cabins. If you have a need for a cabin that accommodates more than two people, we strongly encourage you to book as early in advance as possible as these cabins might be sold out.

Extending a gratuity to crew members, your guide or driver is strictly optional; however, in some countries, these personnel may anticipate that if you were pleased with their services, you will reward them in a monetary way.

Virtually every cruise ship (except for some smaller vessels operating in coastal waters) has a fully-equipped medical facility and staff to handle almost any emergency.

Many cruise lines now feature a more relaxed and casual approach to dress throughout the cruise -- while on others, formal dinners or parties are part of the fun.

Absolutely! Most cruise lines will even treat you to a complimentary cake and a chorus of Happy Whatever to honor the occasion. Your birthday or anniversary can be more festive with champagne, flowers, canapes, wine or cheese. You can even arrange for a special private party. All you have to do is advise us in advance.

No, you do not have to share a cabin with anyone. However, cruise cabin prices are determined by "double occupancy." In other words, you will need paying extra to have your own cabin. The good news is that some cruise lines offer lower rate for single occupancy.

Most of the meals offered with seafood as Halong Bay specialty is seafood; there is lots of sea dishes combined with traditional Vietnamese food, I’m sure you will like the food on boat, if you are allergic with seafood, please inform us your dietary requirements before your departure to Halong Bay.

After the afternoon cruise to see the hidden wonders of Halong Bay, Overnight boats will find a suitable place to anchor for the night, this place is normally inside the very calm bay surrounded by the islands.

Tip: Before we drop the anchor for the night, you will probably see the sunset so get your camera ready to capture some rare moments.

Summer is a good time to cruise on Halong Bay but the best time of year is during the spring or fall. Because the bay is situated in the northern part of the country, it can get colder in the fall and winter, and though you won't see extremes such as blizzards, it's still a lousy place to be when it gets cold.
