Hi My name is Matt, and I am very interested into booking a cruise on your website. I have one question concerning a cruise I would like to take during the month of July. How is the weather in the month of July in Halong Bay? And If there is cancellation due to the weather, are we going to be refunded completely or not? Thank you ! Matt.

Dear Matt, Thank you for your question. In the beginning of July we rarely see storm. If there is cancellation due to the bad weather (it is out of our control) all travelers shall not take the cruise trip and need to come back for their own leisure. If you need us to arrange the hotel in Hanoi or any other tour instead, we will offer you and arrange everything. And finally the difference will be refunded to you as revised invoice of new itinerary. Should you need any further information or assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me.
