Essence Grand Cruise

The most modern cruise on Halong Bay 

In addition to international safety and technical standards, Essence Grand Halong Bay Cruise I boasts the luxury and modern aesthetics of a state-of-the-art supercruise, offering a more spacious and beautiful design compared to international cruises departing from Indonesia, Singapore, and beyond to Vietnam. This design provides passengers with a complete view to appreciate the beauty of the Halong Bay heritage site and other beautiful coastal areas in Vietnam. Furthermore, Essence Grand Cruises is equipped with a Building Management System (BMS) for more efficient operation management, reducing the number of system operation staff. It automatically adjusts temperature and cooling space, saving energy consumption for the air conditioning system. This guarantees absolute safety, saving over 30% on electricity, and minimising greenhouse gas emissions when gas-based air conditioning systems require repairs.
