Above and Beyond Service – A Perfect End to Our Vietnam Trip

We recently had the pleasure of experiencing Elite of the Seas, and I cannot speak highly enough of the incredible service we received—especially from Harry Vu and Alex Quy. From the moment we stepped on board, their attention to detail and genuine care stood out. I was unfortunately dealing with the flu during our trip, and both Harry and Alex went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and looked after. It wasn’t just service—it was kindness, and it made all the difference. We stayed in the Executive Suite, and wow—it was absolutely worth every penny. The space, the comfort, the little touches… everything exceeded our expectations. To top it all off, the seamless transfer back to our hotel in Hanoi made the entire experience effortless and stress-free. Thank you for making the final leg of our four-week journey through Vietnam truly sensational. It’s a memory we’ll always hold onto.

Response from the operator: Thanks so much for your feedback We are so happy that you enjoyed the Elite of The Seas - Top Vip Luxury Cruise in Halong Bay ( 2D1N ) Thanks again for joining us. Have a nice time in Vietnam! Best regards, Luong

Wonderful cruise on Ha Long Bay

The ship was beautiful, rooms were excellent, crew was friendly and attentive and food was wonderful. Cong, our butler was excellent, so attentive and friendly. A wonderful young man! Would recommend this to whoever is looking to do a cruise on Ha Long bay. Suggest 2 nights would be a minimum.

Great Ha Long Bay 2 night cruise cruise

Excellent 2 night cruise on this right sized luxury ship. Our personal butler (Alex Qui) was attentive to all of our wants and needs. Staff were superb and food was great-especially the presentation. We enjoyed biking, cooking class and relaxing.

Great time on Ha Long Bay!

We had a great time on Elite of the Seas. The scenery was beautiful and our butler Tommy was terrific! Sunrise tai chi and the tea ceremony was a perfect way to start the day!

Wow, Wow, Wow 🤩

I originally saw on tic tok a video of this cruise and i was hooked, if you are going to do something once, then make it the best you can. I opted for collection from my hotel in the heart of Hanoi, to the boat. We stopped on the way at a pearl factory, encouraging you to spend, not into Pearls so gave that a miss. We had to get a speedboat out to the boat, not sure as to why but it added to the experience. When we boarded the boat, it did give you that wow factor, it is simply stunning as are the rooms. We only opted for 1 night and i believe for us, it was the right choice. The food and service on the boat was first class and our waiter Alex was amazing in accommodating my dislike of fish and shell fish, even running through the menu and advising what replacements they could offer. The food was amazing (7 courses was a bit of a struggle) but the presentation and tastes was exceptional. The evening meal was also divine and i’ve got to mention Alex again, who made our trip even more special with his attention to detail. We had an amazing sleep and waking up to an amazing view that is out of this world is not to be missed. We were given details of going to a cave early morning but opted to chill and watch the beauty of Halong bay, by sitting on balcony. (There is no need to call the room to see if we are again coming to the caves and waking us up) we are adults and have alarms on our phones if needed. The one night did go quick, so i understand why others like to have 2 nights. It truly is an amazing experience and I would recommend Elite Cruises for that amazing experience and if you get Alex as your waiter be sure to say Hi, you are in excellent hands. Thankyou Elite and Thankyou Alex for the most joyful experience.

Elite of The Seas - Top Vip Luxury Cruise in Halong Bay ( 2D1N ): questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ha Long Bay.

How much does Elite of The Seas - Top Vip Luxury Cruise in Halong Bay ( 2D1N ) cost?

+

Prices start at $400 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Ha Long Bay usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Elite of The Seas - Top Vip Luxury Cruise in Halong Bay ( 2D1N ) take?

+

Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Ha Long Bay is not rushed.

Is Elite of The Seas - Top Vip Luxury Cruise in Halong Bay ( 2D1N ) worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 62 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable family friendly in Ha Long Bay, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Elite of The Seas - Top Vip Luxury Cruise in Halong Bay ( 2D1N )?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 144 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is Elite of The Seas - Top Vip Luxury Cruise in Halong Bay ( 2D1N ) suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 4. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 48-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Elite of The Seas - Top Vip Luxury Cruise in Halong Bay ( 2D1N )?

+

Around 22 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Ha Long Bay can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Ha Long Bay and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Elite of The Seas - Top Vip Luxury Cruise in Halong Bay ( 2D1N ) start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Ha Long Bay within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Ha Long Bay?

+

On Outty we rank every Ha Long Bay experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include All Inclusive 2 Days Halong Bay & Lan Ha Bay on Au Co cruise, Top Tier: Overnight Ha Long Bay Cruise 5-Star, Balcony Cabin-2D1N, All inclusive Bhaya 2-Day Halong Bay Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Ha Long Bay?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Ha Long Bay?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
