Exploring Halong Bay: The Ultimate Cruise Destination in Vietnam

This Halong Bay Luxury Cruise was made possible by:
eliteoftheseas.com
Elite of the Seas is the best Ha Long Bay cruise to enjoy jaw-dropping landscape. The luxury Ha Long tour creates a great opportunity for visitors to have a look at the miracle of nature. When choosing the 3-day-2-night tour, besides sea swimming, kayaking, local rowing boat, the tourist will have extended time to explore the wonderful places of Lan Ha Bay, and the small village Viet Hai is the highlight. With the top service created by the most enthusiastic host (hostess), 3-day-2-night cruising will be the best way to experience Vietnamese hospitality truly.
If you’ve never been to Halong Bay, you need to add taking a luxury cruise through Halong Bay to your bucket list! Halong Bay is a UNESCO World Heritage Site for a good reason. It is one of the most beautiful places we have ever seen! It’s filled with giant lime stone karsts that jut out of the water in every direction for miles.
The best way to experience the bay is by a luxury cruise. There are tons of cruise ship operators offering cruises through Halong Bay. The cruises range from cheap backpack boats to five start luxury cruise ships. Since visiting Halong Bay is most likely a once in a lifetime experience, we decided to splurge on a 5 star luxury cruise to ensure that we had the best experience possible!
We booked our cruise with Elite of the Seas and we were elated with our experience. Seriously, we don’t have a bad thing to say about Elite of the Seas, and that should mean a lot coming from me because when I splurge on an experience I am very critical. Also, the staff treated us like royalty! They made our experience even better.
