Aphrodite Cruise Halong bay (#204)

The most beautiful of all the goddesses was Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty. She was often called the “sea-born” goddess, because she was formed one evening from the foam of the crystal waters of Paphos in the fragrant island of Cyprus, where its waves beat upon a rocky shore.

Together with the mythology history, we bring the breath of ocean and the authentic culture of local fish farm in Halong Bay to your truly experience on board with Aphrodite Cruises which featured luxury boutique concept and also cruise its own route away from the crowd to untouched areas of the bay. With its golden sails, polished woodwork and refined traditional decor, private waiting lounge, and longer cruising loops, Aphrodite Cruises truly offer an unforgettable ambiance of relaxed elegance.
