Dragon Legend Cruise

HIGHLIGHTS

Dragon Legend Cruise echo’s the legendary formation of Ha Long Bay where it is said that Mother Dragon and her children descended to help the Vietnamese people fight against invaders.

In homage to Vietnamese legends and the desire to share with visitors our distinctive cultural values, Dragon Legend Cruise devotes its design to satisfying the expectations of visitors who wish to gain insight into the singular elements that characterizes Vietnamese culture.

The interior design of the well-appointed cabins, restaurants, and bar on this modern boat is an artful presentation of Vietnamese cultural design. The Dragon Head motif is the focus of the design together with Hung King dynasty decorative features and handmade cultural products from the many regions of Vietnam, bringing guests a sense of cultural experience and unique stay in this South East Asian country.

RESTAURANT

Dragon Legend boasts both indoor and open-air restaurants and bars to serve guests. The restaurants have been superbly designed with wood and metal elements in uniquely Vietnamese motifs. The traditional design, lighting, and wooden furniture make for a gracious settingfor dining indoors. The exceptional opportunity for outdoor dining (rare among the cruise offers in Ha Long Bay) is completed with an attractive rustic décor and charming lanterns, and imparts a feeling of harmony with nature.

On your Dragon Legend Cruise, you will be served a set menu, an à la carte menu and buffet meals with a diverse selection of delicious traditional Vietnamese cuisine composed of ahealthful balance of seafood, meats, vegetables and spices.
