Frequently Asked Questions
Is one night on the Ha Long Bay cruise enough?
<p>Yes, for most people. One night gives you the sunset, the kayaking and the sunrise. Two nights are possible if you want a slower trip.</p>
Do Nepali citizens need a visa for Vietnam?
<p>Yes. Nepali passport holders need a Vietnam e-visa approved before the flight. It is included in this package, and our visa team applies for you. Allow 7 to 10 days.</p>
Are flights from Kathmandu included?
<p>No. There is no direct flight from Kathmandu to Vietnam; most routes stop once in Bangkok or Kuala Lumpur. We quote the best fare for your dates and add it to the booking.</p>
Is vegetarian food easy to find in Vietnam?
<p>Yes, in the cities. Look for 'chay' (vegetarian) restaurants, and there are Indian restaurants in Hanoi, Da Nang and Ho Chi Minh City. Tell us in advance and we will ask the hotels and cruise for vegetarian meals.</p>
