An honest price check
Is the Luxurious Cruise Worth the Price
For a departure on 7 October this cruise costs $182, which puts it in the middle of the balcony-and-bathtub cruises we compare, not at the top. The most reviewed of them, with 6,049 reviews, costs $187 for the same date, $5 more, for the same 23 hours on the water on a similar route through Ha Long and Lan Ha Bays.
The cheapest balcony-and-bathtub cruise with more than 1,000 reviews costs $151, $31 less than this one, at ★4.7. What the difference buys here is the ship: a pool, a jacuzzi, a gym and a spa, no cheaper cabin class on board, and 508 reviews at an average of ★4.9.
Pay it if you will spend real time in the cabin, the pool and on the sundeck. If you plan to kayak, visit the cave and sleep, a cheaper balcony cabin gives you the same bay. Prices move with the date, so compare on yours, and remember the $25 round-trip transfer is per person, on top of the price.
