Peony Cruise was launched in late October 2018 and has become one of the most popular overnight cruise choices in Lan Ha Bay. The modern steel vessel offers 20 well-appointed cabins with all the comforts expected of a 5-star overnight cruise.
On Day 1, the cruise stops at Tra Bau Area for swimming and kayaking, followed by a sunset party with Happy Hour drinks and a spring roll cooking class. Day 2 of the 2-night program brings guests to Viet Hai Village on Cat Ba Island, while the final morning includes a visit to Trung Trang Cave – one of the most impressive caves on Cat Ba Island.
With 339 excellent reviews and a 9.7 rating, Peony consistently ranks among the top-rated cruises in the bay.
