4 Cabin(s)
Ideal for friends or solo travelers, the Deluxe Twin Cabin features two comfortable single beds surrounded by classic wooden paneling. Large sea-view windows allow natural light to fill the cabin, offering unhindered views of Bai Tu Long Bay alongside convenient amenities including 24-hour room service, slippers, and a private glass-standing shower bathroom.
Handcrafted by skilled artisans, the Deluxe Double Cabin is wrapped in rich teak and oak paneling, creating a warm and rustic Indochinese atmosphere. The room is thoughtfully designed with a large ocean-view window overlooking the bay, individual air conditioning, and a modern en-suite bathroom featuring a glass-standing shower enclosure.
Overview
Quiet waters, traditional wood, and the limestone scenery of Bai Tu Long Bay set the scene for a very different kind of cruise. Prince Junk Cruise keeps its experience intimate with just 4 deluxe cabins for more privacy and a closer connection to the bay.
Inspired by the traditional character of Vietnamese wooden boats, Prince Junk combines a classic design with comfortable modern accommodation. The handcrafted wooden interiors create a warm and timeless atmosphere, while the compact size of the junk makes the journey feel personal rather than crowded for a more relaxed Halong Bay cruise experience.
The Bai Tu Long Bay tour focuses on enjoying the bay at an unhurried pace. Guests can spend time on the sundeck, enjoy meals onboard, and take part in experiences such as kayaking, cave exploration, fishing village visits, Tai Chi, cooking activities, and beach BBQs, depending on the selected itinerary.
For travelers exploring Bai Tu Long Bay Cruises beyond the usual busy routes, Prince Junk offers a chance to discover the quieter landscapes of Bai Tu Long Bay while staying aboard a traditional-style vessel.
Take a closer look at Prince Junk with Halong Bay Cruise Deals and find a slower, more intimate way to experience the bay.
Highlights
Authentic Handcrafted Teak & Oak Architecture
Designed in the style of classic Vietnamese merchant vessels, Prince Junk stands out with its signature reddish-brown sails and exquisite wooden craftsmanship. The interior is meticulously built with rich teak and oak paneling, natural stone accents, and custom bronze fixtures created by skilled artisans. This timeless Oriental aesthetic creates a warm, rustic, yet deeply luxurious atmosphere throughout the ship.
