pieshops Posted September 24, 2015 #1 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Does anyone know what lines run smaller ships that can dock closer to Hanoi and Bangkok, etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoyaheel Posted September 24, 2015 #2 Share Posted September 24, 2015 I'm booked on an Azamara cruise that goes into Bangkok & Ho Chi Minh city (they have 2 of the old R ships) Similarly, I would guess that Silversea, Regent, Seabourn & Oceania would be able to dock closer, if they offer those ports on itineraries.

Floridiana Posted September 25, 2015 #3 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Ponant has small luxury ships that get close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alidor Posted September 25, 2015 #4 Share Posted September 25, 2015 We were on Azamara a few years ago and they did get to dock really close in - it made everything so much nicer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl Rosebery Posted September 26, 2015 #5 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Oceania can get close to Saigon and Bangkok. Nobody can get to Hanoi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trend Posted October 9, 2015 #6 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Ociana does not go into Klong Toey port like Azamara. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pieshops Posted October 10, 2015 Author #7 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Thanks all for the help. I think we will be sticking with NCL. All others I have checked are double or more The price of the suite we have booked for basic cabin on other lines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisemom42 Posted October 11, 2015 #8 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Guess it's all in what's important to an individual. I'd rather have a smaller cabin and not spend valuable sightseeing time in drives that can be hours to get to the sights.... I cruised on Voyages to Antiquity's Aegean Odyssey last year. Not only do they dock close (Bangkok, Ho Chi Minh City), they include most shore excursions and have top notch lecturers onboard ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maryann ns Posted October 12, 2015 #9 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Check the included items on Azamara and Oceana and you may find they are not that much more expensive. For Hanoi you really want to take a land tour. It takes half a day to get there from the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
