The Amanda Cruise system consists of three brands: Amanda Cruises, Hera Cruises, and Cong Cruises. Amanda Cruises includes: Amanda Luxury Lanha Cruise with 20 cabins, Amanda Ha Long Cruise with 25 cabins, and Amanda Legend Private Halong Cruise with 5 cabins. Each cruise in the Amanda Cruises has its own distinct style and design, but they all follow the same service philosophy: WE DO NOT DESIGN A TOUR, WE DESIGN THE EXPERIENCES. As a result, we devote close attention to every customer’s experience. Amanda Cruises offers clients not only a pleasant voyage through Ha Long Bay, Lan Ha Bay, but also an opportunity to learn about Vietnamese culture and unique traditional characteristics such as Footstep of Heritage: Bamboo dance, Traditional Fashion Show, and herbal foot massages after a long journey. We are grateful that you have chosen to join us on this unforgettable trip.
Newly put into operation in November 2022, Amanda Cruise is a harmonious blend of modern and classic styles, providing a luxury boutique experience in Halong Bay.
Amanda Cruise includes 25 well-furnished cabins located on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd decks. All come with large glass windows or private balconies and all needed amenities such as a 32″ flat screen TV, air-conditioning, safebox, minibar, writing desk & reading lamp, telephone, bathrooms with shower or bathtub, etc. Rooms are spacious at 20 to 60sqm. Connecting cabins are available, very suitable for small groups or families with children.
Besides the popular activities onboard such as watching the sunset, joining a cooking class and sunset party, and doing Taichi, Amanda invites visitors to join a Gala dinner on the sundeck (if weather permits) and relax with a complimentary herbal foot bath, and complimentary food serving from 15:00 – 16:30 and 21:00 – 23:30.
