Two nights on a smaller, wellness-focused cruise, following a less-travelled route through Halong and Lan Ha Bay, where time on the water is as much the point as the places you stop.

Halong Bay

Indochine Premium Overnight Halong Bay Cruise

This one-night itinerary is structured to make the most of a short stay. From the moment the boat leaves Tuan Chau Port, you’re moving through the limestone formations that define Halong Bay, with stops built in so you’re not just watching from the deck. You’ll kayak or take a small sampan into a sheltered lagoon, walk through one of the bay’s largest cave systems, and spend the evening anchored among the islands. Accommodation is in a Junior Suite, which means a proper sense of space for an overnight stay, a private balcony, and large windows that keep the view with you even when you step back inside. On board, there’s a restaurant, bar, and sundeck, so you’re not limited to one central area as the cruise unfolds.

Halong Bay

Bhaya Premium One-Night Cruise

The ships are smaller, with just three to seven cabins and a maximum of 16 passengers, and one of the highest crew-to-guest ratios in the region. This one-night cruise takes you to the Trinh Nu area and the impressive Sung Sot Cave and includes a host of on-board experiences such as Tai Chi on the deck and the chance to create authentic Vietnamese cuisine.

Halong Bay

Bhaya Soul Cruise

Step aboard the Bhaya Soul Cruise and let the emerald waters of Lan Ha Bay guide you into a world of serenity and wonder. Glide through hidden lagoons by kayak, discover secret caves steeped in history, and savor the golden glow of a sunset from the sundeck. Indulge in a soothing wellness ritual, taste the rich traditions of Vietnamese rice-wine and wake to the gentle rhythm of yoga as the bay stirs to life.

Halong Bay

Bhaya Classic Overnight Halong Bay Cruise

The newly refubished Bhaya Classic fleet varies in size and features 15-20 en suite cabins. The classic style of the vessel reflects Vietnam’s heritage and there is a relaxed, informal feel on board. This four-star traditional-style wooden junk offers contemporary luxury, high standards and a relaxed experience. Bhaya Cruise is committed to preserving the environment and supporting the local community with several initiatives. Bhaya Cruises is a vital supporter of the Save the Langur campaign to protect the endangered primates on Cat Ba Island by selling merchandise onboard to support the campaign. There is a zero single-use plastic policy on board, and every year, staff participate in an annual clean-up event to remove waste around the bay. Bhaya Cruises also works with Viet Hai villagers and Cat Ba Island authorities to support the livelihood development of local people and encourage passengers of Bhaya Cruises to enjoy organic vegetables and fruits produced by Viet Hai farmers.

Halong Bay

One-night Au Co Halong Bay Cruise

Experience the very best in comfort, style and fine dining during off-the-beaten-track itinerary which will take you beyond Halong Bay to explore the more secluded shores of its lesser-known neighbouring bays. Enjoy activities such as t’ai chi, kayaking, cave explorations and fruit carving demonstrations. There are 32 spacious cabins, most of which have private balconies offering views from the side of the ship. The excellent facilities include a bar, open-air Jacuzzi, boutique library and restaurant serving a fusion of Vietnamese and western dishes including freshly caught seafood and seasonal fresh produce.

Halong Bay

Extended Indochine Premium Halong Bay Cruise

This itinerary gives you time and access to get to know Halong Bay properly. The first day introduces Halong Bay’s headline scenery, limestone islands, caves, and sheltered lagoons, while the second takes you beyond the main route into quieter areas. What makes it work is the balance: structured excursions when they matter, and enough time in between to take in the setting without feeling rushed. The ship is one of the larger vessels in the bay, with 37 cabins spread across three decks, so there’s space to move around and more than one place to sit, both indoors and out. Cabins feature floor-to-ceiling windows and private balconies, keeping the view close at hand throughout. On board, there is a restaurant, a bar, sun decks, lounge areas, and a small pool, giving you options beyond a single shared space. If you’re mulling over this trip for your family, it’s helpful to know that there are interconnecting Junior Suites, which makes a practical choice for a family of four travelling together without needing to split up.
