Sail from Hanoi into the quiet corners of Lan Ha Bay, where Doris Cruise wraps you in soft luxury, golden sunsets, and calm emerald waters in just two unforgettable days.
In just two days, Doris Cruise Halong Bay 1 Night (2D1N) takes you from the vibrant streets of Hanoi to the gentle silence of Lan Ha Bay, gliding past emerald waters and towering limestone peaks. You’ll board a modern, boutique vessel departing from Halong Bay, settle into a balcony cabin, and let the world slow down as Doris Cruise traces a quieter route toward Tra Bau. This Doris Cruise Halong Bay 2 Days 1 Night journey blends soft adventure—kayaking, swimming, Dark & Bright Cave—with calm, unhurried moments on deck, from sunset tea to starlit squid fishing. Every detail is handled: curated Vietnamese cuisine, sunrise Taichi, local rowing boats, and a professional crew ensuring safety and comfort. Ideal for couples, small families, and first-time visitors seeking a refined yet approachable Lan Ha Bay cruise that can easily pair with a Vietnam Itinerary 6 Days — Unhurried Comfort or a longer Grand Tour Vietnam — Epic North–Central–South.
A 2-day / 1-night luxury cruise from Hanoi to Halong Bay & Lan Ha Bay aboard Doris Cruise, featuring kayaking at Tra Bau, Dark & Bright Cave rowing boats, balcony cabins, Taichi, and sunset tea. Best for couples, families, and short-stay travelers wanting soft adventure with hotel-style comfort and easy transfers from Hanoi. Perfect to combine with Sapa, Ninh Binh, or a Vietnam Itinerary 6 Days — Unhurried Comfort for a complete North Vietnam journey.
As part of Halong Bay–Lan Ha Bay’s sustainable travel regulations, the Bay Management Authority has banned single-use plastic water bottles and disposable plastic items on the bay. Doris Cruise fully follows this policy: you won’t find one-time plastic bottles or tools on board, and we kindly ask you not to bring or use them during your cruise. Instead, please travel with a reusable water bottle, which our team can refill—protecting the seascape you’ve come to admire while keeping you hydrated in comfort.
Your morning in Hanoi slowly melts into open highways, then into a wide sheet of emerald water as Doris Cruise becomes your floating home for the night.
✨ What You’ll Experience
You leave the city’s bustle behind and sink into the comfort of a limousine seat, watching rice paddies and riverbanks slide past the window. At Tuan Chau Harbor, the sea breeze greets you as you check in at Dock 35 and board Doris Cruise, welcomed with cool towels and a gentle smile. A refined lunch is served while the boat glides past limestone towers, guiding you from Halong Bay into the quieter embrace of Lan Ha Bay. In the afternoon, you slip into a kayak or the calm bay itself at Tra Bau, framed by dramatic cliffs and still, movie-famous water. As sunset nears, you return to the ship for tea, snacks, a hands-on cooking class, and a warm dinner before the night softens into squid fishing, stargazing, or simply enjoying your balcony.

A 2-day/1-night cruise is perfect if you’re short on time but still want a full Halong–Lan Ha experience: kayaking, cave visit, sunset party, and sunrise Taichi. Many travelers pair this itinerary with Ninh Binh or Sapa using a Vietnam Itinerary 6 Days — Unhurried Comfort.
Lan Ha Bay is sail-able year-round, but the most pleasant months are usually October–April with cooler, clearer weather. Summer (May–September) offers warm water and lush scenery but may involve short tropical showers. For longer holiday planning, consider a Vietnam Itinerary 14 Days — Grand Highlights, Local Heart that includes Halong or Lan Ha Bay.
Yes. Doris Cruise is family-friendly and suitable for most ages, with safe walkways, attentive crew, and a balanced program of activities and relaxation. Families often combine this with coastal stays in Da Nang or Phu Quoc using our Vietnam Itinerary 10 Days — Slow Luxury, Deeper Moments, Effortless Flow.
Absolutely. Many ViettrendTour guests include Doris Cruise Halong Bay 1 Night (2D1N) inside a Vietnam 7 Day Itinerary — Deep-Dive Discovery, Vietnam Itinerary 2 Weeks — Icons, Islands & Hidden Corners, or the Grand Tour Vietnam — Epic North–Central–South that connects Hanoi, Halong Bay, Hoi An, and the Mekong Delta.
Doris Cruise operates under strict Vietnamese maritime regulations, with licensed captains and up-to-date safety equipment. In case of adverse weather, the route or timing may be adjusted following Port Authority instructions. Our ViettrendTour team monitors conditions and can help you re-plan using alternative experiences from our Halong Bay Cruise — Icons, Caves & Sunset Horizons and Lan Ha Bay Cruise — Limestone Silence, Closer to the Water collections.
You depart from Halong Bay but spend most of your time cruising in Lan Ha Bay, known for fewer boats, calmer waters, and more intimate lagoons. If you prefer a quieter, more boutique feel, this Doris itinerary is ideal compared to classic mass-tourism routes like some Halong Bay Day Cruise — Caves, Emerald Channels & Sunset Sail.
Doris Cruise is a shared boutique cruise, but cabins are private and ViettrendTour can arrange private transfers and tailored pre/post-cruise stays. If you’d like a fully curated journey, our team can weave this sailing into a custom Vietnam Tour Package matched to your style and pace.
