Here I compare the true five-star boats, since the word luxury gets stamped on almost every hull in the bay. The newest ships are steel-hulled, with balcony suites, spa decks and a pool nobody swims in past November. They sell out weeks ahead in peak season, so book before you land.
Experience luxury on a 2-day Ha Long Bay cruise with a balcony cabin, all-inclusive meals, and activities like kayaking, cooking, and Tai Chi.
“Amazing views and the food was surprisingly good! Shout out to the chef! The staff were very professional. Highly recommend!”
