    Stunning views and beautiful boat

    Everything about this cruise was amazing. The boat is well equipped with great cabins with balcony a few sower and free standing bath. The food was amazing and lots of it. Most importantly the staff exceeded our expectations. Highly professional and nothing too much trouble. We went in winter and it was cool on deck and they offered blankets. A must do.

    Incredible

    The food was out of this world. I was really worried as I am a vegan. But when 12 different vegan dishes arrived with spices and aromas to die for I was totally blown away. The boat was immaculate, the staff efficient (a little quick to bring drinks you pay a fortune for though) and the itinerary just right. We saw the pearl farms, the caves, the islands and a temple. Great trip, well done.

    Great boat beautiful location

    We had a wonderful overnight in Halong bay after the bus dropped us off - spent the time cruising, kayaking, a cooking class aboard plus went ashore. The place is crowded but we found a nice private corner for the night - accomadation is superb

    Orchid Cruises 2 Days/1Night 5 Star All included: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hanoi.

    How much does Orchid Cruises 2 Days/1Night 5 Star All included cost?

    +

    Prices start at $390 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 Orchid Cruises 2 Days/1Night 5 Star All included 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 Orchid Cruises 2 Days/1Night 5 Star All included worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Hanoi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Orchid Cruises 2 Days/1Night 5 Star All included?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Orchid Cruises 2 Days/1Night 5 Star All included 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 Orchid Cruises 2 Days/1Night 5 Star All included?

    +

    Around 1 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 Orchid Cruises 2 Days/1Night 5 Star All included 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 Orchid Cruises 2 Days/1Night 5 Star All included?

    +

    Included: Food for 2days,guide,entrance fee,pick up & drop off at hotel in Hanoi Old Quarter; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Not included: Drinks to order. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Orchid Cruises 2 Days/1Night 5 Star All included include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 397 listed pickup locations in and around Hanoi. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Orchid Cruises 2 Days/1Night 5 Star All included offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Orchid Cruises 2 Days/1Night 5 Star All included?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to Orchid Cruises 2 Days/1Night 5 Star All included if the weather is bad?

    +

    It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Hanoi. Standard cancellation terms apply.
