Dear Melisa, Thank you for your inquiry! Regarding your question, the shuttle bus only picks up and drops off at the Hanoi Old Quarter so you can take a private car/taxi from Hanoi Old Quarter to the airport then. Can you share with us your travel date and plans so we can check availability for you? If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Best regards, Lily

Dear Abhinav Jain, Thank you for your email. My name is Jolie from Halong Bay Tours department and I am very glad to assist you with your trip. We are sorry for our late reply as we are currently on our Lunar New Year Holiday. Please help me to find the vegetarian menu of Oriental Sail attached to your mail. Also, the cruise bus can only take you to the Old Quarter thus please kindly consider 2 options as followed: 1. Taking the bus back to the Old Quarter, then we arrange a private sedan from the midway to the airport at US$ 20 extra => You can reach Noi Bai Airport at around 3:00 - 3:30 PM. 2. Taking a private sedan => You can reach Hai Phong Airport at around 1:30 - 2:00 PM - the cost is US$ 45 or Noi Bai Airport at 2:00 - 2:30 PM - US$ 100. I hope to hear from you soon and please let me know if you have any other inquiries. Best regards, Jolie (Ms.)

Answered by Melissa 9 months, 2 weeks ago
Dear Mr. Dave, Thank you for your inquiry! If you book your transfer with us the details will be as follows: (1) Pick up from Hanoi Old Quarter: 8:15-8:45 am. If you stay outside of the Old Quarter we can make some exceptions such as for Sheraton or Intercontinental Hanoi with pick up time at 8:00am; (2) Drop off after the trip: Cruise trip finishes around 11:30-12:00 and you will reach Hanoi between 2:30pm-3:00pm. Our bus can only drop off in Hanoi Old Quarter. If you wish to book a flight after the cruise trip please book one after 5:30pm to avoid rushing between places. OR you can fly from Hai Phong which is closer to Halong Bay. We do not offer a direct bus to the airport but our van can continue to the airport after dropping off guests in downtown Hanoi. The surcharge for this trip to the airport is $10/person and you will reach the airport at 4:00pm. I hope that helps! Melissa

Asked by Richard Ingram 9 months, 2 weeks ago
Hi, we are looking for a 2 day / 1 night Halong Bay cruise and see that you do these on Oriental Sails. We are slightly confused by timings and transport to and from Hanoi. (1) Firstly, when you say bus transfer, is it a small, smart minibus or a big bus / coach? (2) We see that pick up from the hotel is 08:00 and we sail by 12:00, but then another part of your website says 12:30? (3) The time getting back alongside says 12:00 on Day 2 but you say that check out is 11:30? (4) Do we only pay a deposit at this stage?

Dear Richard Ingram, Thank you for your inquiries. I am very glad to assist you with your trip. (1) Oriental Sails uses either minivan or minibus for the shuttle bus and it depends on the number of passengers every day. (2) Please be advised that the time is just approximate. The pick-up time in Hanoi is between 8.00 - 8.30am and the boat will be boarded between 12.00 - 12.30. (3) You will check out at 11.30am but you will need to wait for the bus as the bus will need to go from Hanoi to Halong. (4) To confirm the booking, we only require a deposit of 30% of total payment. The balance would be collected in cash when you are in Hanoi. I hope my info would be helpful and please let me know if you have any other inquiries. Best regards, Cindy (Ms.)

Dear Winifred Ng, Thank you for your question and there is a wifi on board, but its connection is not stable, thanks for your understanding. For the shuttle bus transfer, we offer it free of charge for the pick-up and drop-off within Hanoi Center/ Hanoi Old Quarter area. Thank you! I look forward to hearing from you, Kind regards, Sunny (Ms)

Asked by Winifred Ng 9 months, 2 weeks ago
Hi, I was thinking about going with this cruise; however, I was just wondering if there is a strict time for the last day of the cruise for the bus back to Hanoi? We wanted to walk around the Halong area and maybe catch a later bus back during the evening. Thanks, Winifred

I hope you understand this situation! Thank you! Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us! Kind regards, Sunny (Ms)

We had a nice stay with a caring and attentive team. The bay was beautiful and you will never regret it. The 1-night was a bit short but we enjoyed it a lot. Thank you!

We booked 2 nights and it was such a wonderful trip. The staff welcomed us and always responded to our needs quickly. The guide was knowledgeable about the area and helpful. Halong Bay was unbeatable. Highly recommend!

Food, cabin, staff are all good. The bay view was gorgeous. The activities were varied.
Activities after dinner could be more diversified.

A memorable experience! The location was fantastic. We love watching the islands when the boat is moving. The cave and the view from the top of the mountains were amazing. Should not miss! The staff was friendly and hospitable. Would recommend!

The tour with Oriental Sails was smooth although the spots were crowded and there were a bit too many activities. Food was abundant and of good quality. Our room was comfortable.

Oriental Sails was not a new boat but clean and well equipped. The excursions include majestic views such as Surprise Cave and Titov Island. It was very crowded too. Kayaking was nice.

The activities for 2-night tour could be more diversified. If we could kayak more on the second day, that would be better.
