Larger than The Prince and Princess it is still small enough to get up close to the natural wonders, pocket lagoons and small fishing communities of Halong and Bai Tu Long bays. « less

We spent one night and two half days on the Red Dragon 2. While the weather was not great - very misty with periodic drizzle - the scenery was still spectacular. The boat had 4 of the 5 cabins occupied and was quite comfortable for an overnight cruise. There were only about 7 other boats, all from Indochina Junk, following... More

The boat was lovely, and our room superb. The robes provided were a nice touch, and we made use of them for watching the sun rise. Boat ride was very smooth, and the visit to the cave and fishing village was very interesting. The food was amazing - all fresh seafood with lots and lots to taste and eat

The Red Dragon Junk made my trip even more beautiful. Everything was wonderful - food, staff, activities, and cabins.

Our last trip brought us to Hanoi with Red Dragon. We booked our cruise via Red Dragon directly and invoice was provided by First Choice travel . The rest of the balance I had to pay in cash to a representative who showed up at our hotel to greet us before we started the cruise that morning. The weather was... More

Dont expect five star, four star or even three! The lovely photos of the rooms on the website don't actually exist. Keep your expectations low and you won't be disappointed. The communal seating was pretty disappointing- sure the group were nice- but small talking over a fifteen course lunch followed by another fifteen courses for dinner two hours later was... More

My husband and I spent two days and a night on the Red Dragon, specifically choosing a smaller junk that could access a less populated route and which provided us with pleasant company of another 7 people only. Our double room was pretty and private bathroom exceptionally well appointed given the space. The staff, service and food was exceptional; we... More

We selected this junk out of the options our hotel provided in hanoi. We picked up a small boat with 10 guest capacity for better service and quite got what we expected. Halong bay is a wonder and it veils the 4 hour trip from hanoi as well as the dump atmosphere of the city, harbour and the indochina enterprise... More

Anh gave us an excellent introduction and welcome followed by a very nice lunch. The 10 of us guests then sailed to theiir island... More

My husband and I spent two days and a night on the Red Dragon, one if the smaller junks that cater more to smaller groups and couples than to big party groups.
