Bhaya Classic Cruises, Halong bay
Launching its first cruise back in the summer of 2007, Bhaya Classic Cruises is a member of what is now Halong Bay’s largest fleet of cruise boats & ships. The 4 Bhaya Classic boats are constructed in a classic, oriental style, while incorporating modern facilities catering to every aspect of passenger comfort.
Each Bhaya Classic boat has between 15 and 20 cabins, the relatively small design creating informal, warm spaces promoting a convivial feel on board. A refurbishment programme carried out in August 2015 has given the boats a fresh new look.
The Bhaya Classic boats are wooden boats constructed in the traditional oriental style long favoured by shipbuilders in this area. The construction material and style of the boats give them a classic feel which sets them apart from most cruise vessels around the world. On board, you will find atmospheric spaces which speak of the heritage design, and the small boat concept encourages a cosy feel which makes a Bhaya Classic cruise a pleasantly social affair. The colour scheme on board is a fusion of the rich browns of hardwood, white, and turquoise blue trim with red highlights. The wooden furniture on board only heightens the sense of timeless elegance which seems a natural extension of Halong Bay itself.
DELUXE CABIN
Combining traditional Vietnamese features and a modern Western touch, Bhaya Classic’s Deluxe cabins bring passengers a comfortable and cosy stay with high quality room facilities and amenities.
TERRACE SUITE
Offering a premier stay with private terrace looking out on Halong Bay’s breath-taking scenery, our Terrace Suite delivers an unforgettable vacation in this UNESCO World Heritage Site.
FACILITIES
