Amazing cruise experience
Everything was very clean, the schedule was followed perfectly, and the crew was incredibly friendly … There were plenty of activities to enjoy, including kayaking, cooking classes, Tai Chi, karaoke and squid fishing .. Special thanks to our guides Man and Evan who were fantastic throughout the trip !

Beautiful bay, wonderful experience, terrific tour guide ('Sunday')
This was a 2 day/1 night cruise in Bai Tu Long Bay. We aren't what you would call 'cruise people' (I've always thought going on a cruise would be an awful experience, and just equated it with too many people/outbreaks of infectious disease). However, I was wrong. What made this trip so special was the stunning scenery, the wonderful boat (where there were only about 25 of us onboard), the kayaking trip (calm, peaceful, and wonderful to be on the water), and also the incredible food that we received. In addition, our tour guide (who was called 'Sunday') was an absolute joy - from the moment we met him to the last wave goodbye, he made sure absolutely everything was organised perfectly, that we all got the very most out of time in the Bay, and that we had the opportunity to learn more about Vietnam, ask questions, and just get 'under the surface' of the country and its culture. 'Sunday' also arranged for us to do some Tai Chi on deck at dawn (sounds cringey, but it was a lovely thing to do), to try playing a traditional Vietnamese instrument (the Dan Bau - he played it much better than I did), and to also do a bit of night squid fishing. All-in-all, he really made a great trip and an even better one.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Swan Cruises Halong & Bai Tu Long Bay 2D1N & 3D2N - All inclusive: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hanoi.
How much does Swan Cruises Halong & Bai Tu Long Bay 2D1N & 3D2N - All inclusive cost?
+
Prices start at $70 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 Swan Cruises Halong & Bai Tu Long Bay 2D1N & 3D2N - All inclusive 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 Swan Cruises Halong & Bai Tu Long Bay 2D1N & 3D2N - All inclusive worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 93 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 952 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Hanoi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.
Can I cancel or reschedule Swan Cruises Halong & Bai Tu Long Bay 2D1N & 3D2N - All inclusive?
+
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 Swan Cruises Halong & Bai Tu Long Bay 2D1N & 3D2N - All inclusive suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 1. 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 Swan Cruises Halong & Bai Tu Long Bay 2D1N & 3D2N - All inclusive?
+
Around 333 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 Swan Cruises Halong & Bai Tu Long Bay 2D1N & 3D2N - All inclusive 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 Ninh Binh Day Trip from Hanoi with Tam Coc or Trang An & Mua Cave, Ha Giang Loop Tour 4 Days 3 Nights with Ha Giang Vision Tour, Halong Bay Day Tour With Titop Island, Cave, Kayak & Lunch. 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.
