Good to know
- Cruises follow harbour authority weather rules. If the bay is closed for a storm, we move your date or refund in full. Life jackets are on board and the crew gives a safety briefing.
- Day 4 works best with a flight after about 6:00 pm.
- Prices are per person. Vietnam uses the dong (VND); cards work in most hotels, but bring some cash for markets and tips.
Cancellation
Cancel at least 14 days before arrival for a full refund. Inside that, hotels, boats and transport are committed and we refund whatever our suppliers release, and we show you exactly what that is.
