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.
We are always here to help you. Please kindly tell us the requirements for your ideal overnight cruise in Halong Bay: Style, Destinations, Duration, Departure date… and our travel experts will be right there to consult!

Harry is a lively and fun-loving tour guide. This cruise was the most enjoyable. The cruise crew is quite kind, and the food supplied is great. We enjoyed activities such as kayaking, bamboo boat rides, cooking classes, and swimming.
