Full description
This is a 2-day experience in Ha Long. It is run by La Pandora cruises - THD Travel, 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.
The price covers Round-trip shuttle bus, tour guide, Entrance fees and sightseeing fees, Deluxe en-suite cabin with air-conditioning and hot water and Welcome drink.

Traveler Reviews
It was great. Hung was an awesome host. The boat was a little older but still very nice. The staff were great and the food was awesome. I’d recommend for sure
Very beautiful tour, our guide Eric was very nice and also the crew members
Great experience! We've spent the night in Lan Ha Bay, which is less crowded, and that was totally worth it, the cruise was lovely - especially the cabin view - and a shoutout to the crew members and our guide Cody for taking care of us during the trip!!
Eric was a great guide! He kept us engaged and everything ran exactly as he planned. Thank you! 😊
This was a great excursion and Danny was a great guide. Really good value for money given it includes transfer to and from Hanoi (~3hrs). While the boat may be a bit older than other boats, it holds fewer people and therefore feels like a more boutique experience. The crew are super friendly and the food was delicious!
Really nice and cozy stay. Your guide Victor was amazing, he really make the trip so good.
Tour guide Eric was really helpful, all experience was perfect
All good, we loved the experience! Guide Eric was very helpful and kind.
Good value for money! Cody was a perfect guide and was always happy to help. The views are incredible, even with bad weather. Our food wishes were always catered to and we liked the included activities!
Great activities, Huy tour guide was very friendly and great at taking us around efficiently!
We loved Hieu Cody as our guide, he was funny and energetic and kept everyone laughing and on their toes. food was good, karaoke was good. I would only say the smell of the boat gas was a little annoying but love the trip, our cruise staffs.
Great trip! Not too crowded, activities (especially the swim and kayak) were amazing! Our guide Cody really made the trip, super enthusiastic and on the ball. Kept everything running very smoothly.
