Full description
This is a 2-day experience in Ha Long. It is run by Doris Cruise 5 Star, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.
Nagoya is Japan's fourth city and the gateway to the Ghibli Park at Nagakute, opened in 2022 with timed tickets that sell out weeks ahead, to Nagashima Spa Land and its rollercoasters, and to Inuyama, whose castle is one of the twelve original keeps. Nagoya Castle's golden dolphins and the Toyota Commemorative Museum are the city's own sights, and hitsumabushi grilled eel and miso katsu are its food. The Ise Grand Shrine, Shinto's most sacred site, rebuilt every twenty years, is 90 minutes south.

Traveler Reviews
The room was great along with the staff and their organisation of everything. I was caught out thinking I had booked a 2 night cruise and being advised I had only booked 1. I read 2/3day as 2 nights 3 days when it actually means 2 days or 3days. This would be clearer described as 1 night /2 nights because as travellers we are thinking about where we are for the nights. Feeding lunch at 10:15am on the last day seemed silly and might be better to provide a sandwich for the bus home. The cruise groups need to get together to send out a clean up team each morning to collect the rubbish floating in
2 nuits 3 jours, bon compromis pour profiter de la baie mais aussi se reposer. Les paysages sont magnifiques, malheureusement beaucoup de traces de pollution dans la mer (dechets...). Le personnel était parfait et les chambres très propres et de grande taille.
Transfer confortable, mais l’attente au bureau avant de rejoindre le bateau a été pour nous d’1h30, beaucoup trop long ! Grosse déception du parcours car finalement on ne navigue que très peu, 1/2 h à l’aller idem au retour …proposition de faire du kayak mais à côté du bateau et balade à vélo comme indiqué . On ne voit qu’un spot de la baie de Lang ha . Sinon bateau le tulip ( annulation du Doris le jour même ) très confortable et le manager Maria est aux petits soins
Really enjoyed the kayaking and the second day when we weren’t surrounded by many other boats. Also food was good and staff very helpful
