Overview

The story of Bai Tho Junks began in 1991, a time when Ha Long tourism was still in its infancy. With the vision of pioneers, this is the first private travel agency licensed to transport passengers and a pioneer in exploring the overnight cruise service model on the bay. After more than 30 years of association with heritage waters, Bai Tho Junks is not only a long-standing name but also a guarantee of a deep understanding of local culture and a dedicated, professional service style.To affirm its leading position, the group has built a multi-layered resort ship ecosystem, fully meeting the needs of international tourists. In particular, Victory Star plays the role of “flagship” – the most luxurious 5-star yacht. Along with that isVictory Cruise, a cozy 4-star cruise line with 21 cabins overhauled in May 2022, andTreasure Junk– a unique boutique experience with 14 cabins dedicated to exploring the pristine waters of Bai Tu Long Bay.In particular, the important piece that helps Bai Tho Junks maintain a strong presence is the fleet of day cruises and event services (Day Cruises). This is an iconic traditional wooden ship line, specializing in serving short cruises to visit the bay or large-scale MICE groups and wedding parties. The combination of luxury overnight cruise lines and a flexible sightseeing fleet has created a comprehensive service network, helping the name Bai Tho become a symbol of trust, reliability and hospitality right in the heart of the world’s wonders.

Frequently Asked Questions

What clothes and personal items should I prepare for the trip?

Because the itinerary combines both relaxation and outdoor activities, you should bring:

Light, sweat-absorbent clothing for daytime activities.

Sneakers or flats with good grip for mountain climbing (Ti Top Island) and cave tours.

Swimwear and sunscreen for swimming or kayaking.

A light jacket (in winter or when it gets windy at night on deck).

Does the cruise ship cater to individual event requirements?

Have. Victory Star is very willing to assist guests in organizing special occasions such as: Birthdays, wedding anniversaries, marriage proposals or small anniversary events. Please contact the reservation team at least 3-5 days in advance so we can prepare the cake, decorate the room or arrange a private party table as requested (fees may apply depending on the service).

What type of electrical outlet are used on yachts and what voltage is used?

The train uses 220V voltage. Sockets in the room are usually 2-prong or 3-prong multi-purpose types, suitable for most electronic devices from phones, computers to hair dryers. If you use a device with a special plug, please contact reception to borrow an adapter.

If I get seasick, should I go on a cruise?

You can completely rest assured. Halong Bay is surrounded by thousands of limestone islands, so the sea surface is very calm, with few big waves. In addition, Victory Star has a sturdy steel hull structure and a modern balancing system that helps the ship move extremely smoothly. If you are too sensitive, we always have anti-sickness medicine available at the reception to assist.

Does the cruise ship have regulations regarding smoking areas?

For fire safety and protection of common spaces, all rooms (cabins) are strictly non-smoking. However, guests can smoke in designated areas such as the Sundeck or outside open spaces.

While the corridors and walkways are generously spacious, we recommend that guests with limited mobility choose a suite on the first deck for effortless access between their stateroom and the dining venue. Active excursions, such as hiking, can easily be substituted with pure relaxation on board while taking in the magnificent scenery.
