✨ Experience Boutique Comfort with a Modern Twist

Doris Cruise is a 5-star steel cruise ship offering luxurious journeys through Lan Ha Bay, the tranquil neighbor of Halong Bay.

Each of the 24 spacious suites comes with a private balcony, Jacuzzi tub, and full-glass windows for breathtaking views throughout your voyage.

The cruise is ideal for honeymooners, families, and small groups seeking a balance between adventure and luxury, without the tourist crowds.

From daily kayaking excursions and cave visits to cooking demonstrations and cocktail hours, Doris ensures every moment onboard is meaningful. The ship’s fine dining restaurant, spa and massage center, and sunset bar elevate your journey into a truly memorable escape.
