As Ha Long Bay becomes increasingly crowded — with ports overflowing with tourists and caves packed to the point where there's barely space to walk and the main route is jammed with Cruises and Boats — the experience can start to feel overwhelming and uninspiring. With over 20 years of experience organizing tours in Ha Long Bay, we recognized the need to offer something new — a fresh perspective on this iconic destination, while still fulfilling the deep desire to explore and admire one of the world’s natural wonders. That is exactly why the Unicharm Cruise was created. Under the management of Vega Travel Co., Ltd. Not only will you be served with elegance and sophistication, but you'll also enjoy immersive experiences throughout the entire 24 or 48 hours (with our 2Day-1nite or 3Day-2nite itineraries). Guests will have the chance to explore and admire Ha Long Bay from a unique perspective — the quieter, hidden side of the bay, where tourist boats are rarely seen. By this itinerary, we believe that we will satisfy customers who are not interested in crowded tourist attractions and those who have passion for discovering. With a unique journey departing from Tuan Chau Harbor, the cruise quietly sails away from the crowded heart of Ha Long Bay, passing through Cua Van — the meeting point between Ha Long Bay and Lan Ha Bay. Here, the waters come alive with untamed energy, as fierce waves surge like wild beasts across the open sea, roaring and crashing against towering limestone cliffs, sending white foam exploding into the air, misting an entire corner of the sky. Unicharm Cruise continues to take you deeper into the stunningly serene and poetic corners of Lan Ha Bay — a hidden paradise where it feels as if there’s only the sky, the sea, the islands… and us. UniCharm Cruise has a restaurant, a bar and a huge sundeck for relaxing. With free WiFi, this 4-star cruise offers a private beach area and room service. The accommodations offers a 24-hour front desk. All guest rooms come with air conditioning, a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, a fridge, a kettle, a bidet, a hairdryer and a desk. With a private bathroom fitted with a shower and free toiletries, Every cabin feature large glass doors offering panoramic views of the entire Bay. At UniCharm Cruise all rooms are fitted with a wardrobe. Guests at the accommodations can enjoy a buffet breakfast. UniCharm Cruise offers a barbecue seafood dinner, cooking class. Activities such as Kayaking, snorkeling, trekking in Catba national park and biking in Viet Hai village, guests can be enjoyed in the surroundings, and guests can relax along the beachfront. This itinerary is designed with numerous activities, making it perfectly suitable for travelers who enjoy discovering new things.
