    Asked on August 25th, 2024

    Just wanting to inquire whether how much if we wanted to have all transport private throughout the tour and what are the hotels included?

    Accommodation
    Transport
    • Old Quarter TravelOperatorWritten August 2024

      The hotels and cruise are 3-star quality. For private trnasport, I think you can use private car for airport pickup & drop off and Halong Bay. For Hanoi city and Ninh Binh, you can't use a private car for a group tour. Both group tours has about 18 - 22 people, not so big.

  • R

    Rachael

    Asked on March 20th, 2024

    I have question about the accommodation, apart from the cruise will it be the same hotel in Hanoi or will there be different ones? The reason I ask is because I have a lot of luggage that I'd rather leave somewhere instead of carrying everywhere. Maybe if it's the same hotel they could hold my luggage for the one night when we are on the cruise?

    Accommodation
    • Old Quarter TravelOperatorWritten March 2024

      Yes. Normally it's same hotel for all nights in Hanoi (I need to check for availability to be 100% sure). And you can store your luggage at hotel when you do Halong Bay cruise.

    Alexis

    Asked on May 31st, 2023

    Could you clarify whether the advertised price includes the price of hotel accommodation? If not, how much would accommodation usually be?

    Accommodation
    Price / Availability
    • Old Quarter TravelOperatorWritten May 2023

      Price is not included hotel accommodation in Hanoi. Price for a Deluxe Room with window at 3-star hotel is around $30 - $40 per room (2 people) per night.

      TravelerWritten May 2023

      On the advertisement it states accommodation included and when we are confirming dates, it gives us the option of selecting accommodation. What is included in the $360 price? And what did you mean by accommodation included?

    • Old Quarter TravelOperatorWritten May 2023

      It's included accommodation for 1 night on 3-star cruise for Halong Bay only. I mentioned clearly about it.

    Asked on September 2nd, 2022

    • Old Quarter TravelOperatorWritten September 2022

      From May 2022, Vietnam is fully opened for tourists and it mean you don't need to be COVID vaccinated to join this trip.

      Frances

      TravelerWritten September 2022

      Your tour guides also do not ask for vaccination if I join, correct?

    • Old Quarter TravelOperatorWritten September 2022

      He won't ask for it. Now in Vietnam all activies are same as before COVID. But we still do recommend you to do Covid test in case you don't feel good.

      Frances

      TravelerWritten September 2022

      If I would travel to Thailand one day before the trip, can I book a Hotel in "Quận Hoàn Kiếm" and then the transfer from the hotel is included?

    • Old Quarter TravelOperatorWritten September 2022

      Could you please make it clear "transfer from the hotel"? Did you mean from hotel to airport or hotel to hotel?
