I will be at a Hanoi hotel for the shuttle pickup - but heading to Cat Bi airport after the cruise. Is there an option to go to that airport vs. back to my hotel?
Dear Peter, We can arrange a private car to Cat Bi airport for you and its price is USD 45 for a 4 seat car for 1-2 persons. Best regards, Cindy
I am staying at the Golden Lotus hotel - is that near where I can get the bus? Thanks.
Dear Christine Marie Mazza, Yes, the bus can pick you up at the Golden Lotus hotel for sure. Best regards, Cindy
Hi, I am looking to book for 22 - 23rd December. Need a suite with a baby cot and a small bed for my 2 kids. I want to take a private car from Hanoi airport around 6am to get to Ha Long for getting on the cruise. From what time can we get on the cruise?
Dear Ateesh Srivastava, Please be advised that a suite is not enough space to put both a baby cot and an extra bed for your 2 kids so can one kid share a bed with parents? Please note it takes only 2,5 hours to go from Hanoi airport to Halong and you can get on the cruise at 12.00pm so you might need to wait a few hours at the cruise's lounge or go around. Best regards, Cindy
