Important Notes:

Calypso Cruise features

  • Calypso Cruise designs were inspired by traditional Halong Bay boats. The main colour of the cruise was white, mixed with warm brown colours in the interior to give travellers a cosy atmosphere. Despite a simple and cosy look, the 20 suite cabins on Calypso are equipped with modern facilities such as a flatscreen TV, AC, an en-suite bathroom, and a panoramic window or balcony view of the bay.
  • Another strong point is that the cruise offers a seasonal jacuzzi pool, which you might only find on a luxurious cruise. The spacious pool stays on the top sundeck, with a stunning 360-degree view as the cruise sails through Halong.
  • The restaurant of Calypso Cruise is on the 2nd floor, with a capacity of up to 48 people.
  • Not because of the budget that the food in Calypso is less fancy. The cruise focuses on mainly Vietnamese food, with various styles that are abundant and made from fresh ingredients. Travelers will have no worries about their diets as the cruise has special menus for each.

 

  • Happy Hours
  • Tai Chi 
  • Squid Fishing
  • Night music
  • Calypso Cruise offers a trip to Lan Ha Bay, the neighbourhood of Halong with a more calm and quiet atmosphere. Travellers will have the chance to go kayaking at Dark and Bright Cave, relaxing in Tra Bau, or swimming at Ba Trai Dao Beach.
  • More than that, with a 2-night itinerary, travellers will get further into the rural village of Viet Hai, biking through the calm and quiet of the lush green Cat Ba Island and learning about the cultural life of Halong.

4. If I plan to book a flight right after the cruise, what time should I book ?

The cruise would be back to the port at 11:30. It then take 3 hours to get back to Hanoi airport & 45 mins to get to Hai Phong airport. As a results, we strongly suggest:

  • Flight from Cat Bi Airport (Hai Phong City): After 2pm
  • Flight from Noi Bai Airport (Hanoi City): After 5pm
5. What should I pack for the cruise ?

When packing for Cruise, the most important items to bring are comfortable clothing, swimwear, and sunscreen. If you travel during winter months (November to Feb), you may also need to pack a light jacket or sweater to keep warm during cooler evenings.

 Typically, each cruise provides 1 – 2 bottles of water for free every day, and you will not be allowed to bring your own drinks. So, if you want to stay hydrated, bring some money (the drinks on board are a little pricy)

It is also recommended that you bring a camera or smartphone with enough of storage capacity for photos and videos in order to make the most of your trip. Prepare some waterproof protection for them, as you will be doing a lot of water-based activities.

Finally, remember to bring any medications or toiletries you might need while away from home.
