Beautiful and dreamy
We love the whole hotel. The attention of all staff and Ludy customer service. Henar the Animation explained the museum and the paintings it has.

Very late cancelation
We traveled today to our pickup point in the harbor by ferry and taxi and 1 minute for pickup easy tours sends us a mail that our cruise is cancelled because they don’t have enough participants. Very unpleasant
via Viator
Fantastic! Totally recommend!
Beautiful, relaxing but active trip. Really glad I chose Lang Ha bay, less crowded and touristic. There was 3 ships in total on the bay. It was a small ship with 10 cabins, so just a few of us. The cabins were spacious, clean and comfy (the shower was separated from the toilet!). The itinerary was followed, the staff was great! Polite, profesional, attentive to detail. Tiger gave his best to make us enjoy ourselves to the maximum! Kayaking great, breathtaking secret spot, swimming on the bay, cooking class… so good everything. They fed us soo much delicious food! I was a bit disappointed by Viet Hai village. But thats all.

Worth a visit
The rooms were nice & all the facilities you need and private. It’s great deal for the price and nice to get away from the city. The guide & staff were all friendly, helpful & funny. Definite well worth a visit.

Trip for kayaking & swimming!
We’re very keen on the kayaking & water activities so we’re absolutely happy with this cruise trip. The lagoon called “Hang Toi/ Hang Sang” worth a perfect place for kayaking & swimming. Should do it!

Lan Ha bay deluxe cruise 2D/1N: kayaking & swimming at pristine places & meals: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hanoi.
How much does Lan Ha bay deluxe cruise 2D/1N: kayaking & swimming at pristine places & meals cost?
+
Prices start at $180 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hanoi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Lan Ha bay deluxe cruise 2D/1N: kayaking & swimming at pristine places & meals 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 Hanoi is not rushed.
Is Lan Ha bay deluxe cruise 2D/1N: kayaking & swimming at pristine places & meals worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hanoi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Lan Ha bay deluxe cruise 2D/1N: kayaking & swimming at pristine places & meals?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Lan Ha bay deluxe cruise 2D/1N: kayaking & swimming at pristine places & meals suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Lan Ha bay deluxe cruise 2D/1N: kayaking & swimming at pristine places & meals?
+
Around 2 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 Hanoi 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 Hanoi and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Lan Ha bay deluxe cruise 2D/1N: kayaking & swimming at pristine places & meals 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 Hanoi 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 Hanoi?
+
On Outty we rank every Hanoi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Ha Giang Loop 3-Day Small Group - from Hanoi, (Group/Individual) HANOI STREET FOOD TOUR, Incense Village Quang Phu Cau, Hat Village and Hanoi City 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 Hanoi?
+
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 Hanoi?
+
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.
What is included in Lan Ha bay deluxe cruise 2D/1N: kayaking & swimming at pristine places & meals?
