Overview
Being one of the very first cruises to set sail in Lan Ha Bay, the southern part of Halong Bay, Orchid Cruise offers you a much more pleasant service with only a 2-hour transfer from Hanoi city through Hanoi - Haiphong Expressway instead of 4 hours on National Highway to the touristy Halong Bay.
Lan Ha Bay where the Orchid takes you to is very far from the tourist trap in the Halong Bay center, meaning a more secluded charm. The bay features approximately 400 limestone islands and islets, all of which are covered with trees and vegetation.
Orchid Classic Cruise brings the appeal of Lan Ha Bay and the elegance of orchids, one of the most popular flowers in the bay, into one graceful world. Right from the first moment of getting on board, you are immersed in the delightful scent of orchids, the scent of grace.
The elegance of the Orchid Cruise comes from its simple stylish design with the wooden furniture, fine monochrome pictures, and every detail on the boat. Orchid Classic Cruises are proud to offer big luxurious ships with only 14 exclusive suites, elegant bars, sophisticated restaurants, a well-furnished gym and spa, and spacious sundecks providing spectacular views of the bay, especially in sunrise and sunset.
Cruising with Orchid, guests will have a chance to explore one of the most stunning caves in Halong Bay, freely kayak in the vast ocean, and swim in the crystal blue waters. Taking a break in the Wonder of Nature, all life pressure will soon be left behind, giving space for the enjoyment of your journey through this amazing land.

Turkey"Orchid Exclusive, our cabin was amazing"
Actually, the speculator view of Orchid Classic Cruise, it really made an unforgettable impression on my mind. The accommodation is so convenient and comfortable for visitors like me. However, our pick up driver was a bit late which made me feel a bit uncomfortable. But it’s OK, it did not affect our visit. Great.
Ba K
Australia"Superb cruise and halong bay was really gorgeous"
The accommodation was lovely, and the dinner was unexpectedly tasty! The entire staff was attentive and courteous. The beds were comfortable, and the boat size was enough (not too many rooms) We chose to spend the second day on the boat in order to relax in our room. Remember that everything is added to your bill in the end (there is free water just ask for it). We were forced to stop at the pearl location before docking, don't know why
