If you want to immerse yourself in the story of Emperor Bao Dai's reign, there's even a cruise inspired by his lavish lifestyle. Emperor Cruises takes inspiration from Vietnam's last Nguyen King to create a unique sailing experience in Ha Long Bay and lesser-known Bai Tu Long Bay. Black and white pictures of Bao Dai, his family, and royal events in the Imperial City of Hue grace the walls, and every day you can look forward to beautiful gourmet meals -- fit for a king.

The art of cruising “Immerse yourself in the art of cruising, visual arts, local culture, and history, on a journey of discovery of the past and present, a voyage through time, rich in memories in the Gulf of Tonkin and on the Red River.”

One of the most passionate people I know about cruising in Vietnam and sharing his love for his country. He is very creative in designing unique experiences for high-end travelers. In this book, step back in time to the early 20th century and the nostalgia of French Indochina through old photos and rare postcards. This art book complements the Heritage Cruises experience and brings alive the Gulf of Tonkin. This will be a book to treasure.”

I want to thank and recommend Mr. Thanh, my guide in Saigon..a man passionate about his job,who knows everything and who patiently answered to all my questions about his country!
