My family of 4 is planning to take your 2-day/1-night Ha Long Bay cruise starting on Dec 28, 2024. We'll stay at Melia Hanoi Hotel on Ly Thuong Kiet Street. Questions: 1. Where are the pickup and dropoff locations of your shuttle bus? 2. Will you pick us up and drop us off at Melia HaNoi Hotel? 3. When is the checkout time on the 2nd day of the cruise? 4. We'll book two cabins. Are there connecting cabins? Thanks. -Peter
