1.Top Tier: Overnight Ha Long Bay Cruise 5-Star, Balcony Cabin-2D1N

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 2,251 reviews · from $174Our pick

Spend one night aboard a 5-star cruise from Ha Long to Lan Ha Bay, with a private balcony cabin, bathtub, meals, kayaking or a rowing boat, cooking class, tai chi, and cave visits. Hanoi transfers cost extra. Expect beautiful scenery, friendly service, and a busy schedule with limited time actually cruising.

“Really impressive trip/experience from start to finish. Transfer by coach was comfortable and safe. There was a brilliant mix of activities to do on board the boat, from kayaking, to cooking classes, to tai chi, to just relaxing with a drink on the deck. We were delighted to find our room was just like the wonderful pictures featured on this site, and it really was ultra-luxurious with incredible views and great amenities. The staff on board were all wonderfully helpful, polite and enjoyable to be around. I would cruise upon the Aspira again in a heartbeat, truly a perfect experience and I would recommend it to anyone!”
