1. The Indochina Sails Welcome – Your Honeymoon Begins
Your private luxury vehicle transfers you from Hanoi to the Indochina Sails Lounge at Tuan Chau Marina. A personal concierge greets you with a chilled towel and a glass of sparkling wine. Your check-in is completed in privacy, and a tender boat carries just the two of you across the emerald water to the elegant Indochina Sails junk.
As you step aboard, the captain and your dedicated butler welcome you by name. You are escorted to the Indochina Sails Signature Suite – a spacious 42-square-meter cabin with large windows, a king-size bed dressed in fine linens, and a private balcony. Rose petals adorn the bed, and a handwritten love note welcomes you. A bottle of vintage champagne and fresh fruit await, setting the tone for your romantic Halong Bay honeymoon aboard this classic luxury cruise.
