Emeraude Cruise - Halong Bay

Emeraude Cruise - Halong Bay - Overview
Let Emeraude Classic Cruises transport you back to the days of old 'Indochine' as you discover magnificent Halong Bay in style on board a luxurious replica steamer.

One of the great natural wonders of the world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Halong Bay covers an area of 1,500 km over which are scattered thousands of limestone islands and grottoes rising from clear, emerald waters. The only way to really appreciate Halong Bay's natural beauty is on an overnight cruise.

In 1910 a paddle steamer called the Emeraude was offering unforgettable cruises on Halong Bay for visitors to what was then French Indochina. Today the Emeraude offers a regular cruise service on board a luxurious replica steamer with 38 cabins meticulously designed to evoke the nostalgic charm of colonial Indochina.

With polished wooden floors and brass fixtures and fittings the Emeraude's cabins offer timeless elegance while the restaurant offers delicious, freshly caught local seafood and the flavours of traditional Indochinese fare.
