Calypso legendary 4* cruise on Halong Bay

2-day itinerary

Calypso Cruiser was inspirited by the myth of Calypso which also was represented in the traditional Asian design. “Glamour” and “Grandeur” are best to characterize the Calypso. The cruiser presents a luxurious exterior blending with the gorgeous nature of Halong bay harmoniously. Calypso Cruiser features 12 deluxe cabins, all finely equipped and exposed to the widest view of the bay as well as wide range of recreational activities in the spectacular scenery of the Bay of Descending Dragons.
