On November 2, at Ha Long International Cruise Port, two cruise ships, Viking Orion and Azamara Pursuit, brought nearly 1,600 international visitors to Quang Ninh. This high-spending tourist segment contributes to boosting service and tourism activities, while opening up opportunities to promote Quang Ninh as a friendly, attractive, and culturally rich destination.
According to the plan, the two ships will stay at the port for 2 days and 1 night, departing at 13:00 on November 3. During their stay, tourists chose various itineraries to explore distinctive local scenic spots, landscapes, and cultural values such as: Ha Long Bay World Natural Heritage site, Yen Tu World Cultural Heritage site, Quang Ninh Museum, Yen Duc countryside village, etc., along with sightseeing activities in Bai Chay, Ha Long, and Hong Gai wards.
Quang Ninh is entering the cruise tourism season. From now until the end of the year, approximately 30 cruise voyages will continuously bring thousands of international tourists to the locality. Welcoming large-scale international tourist groups by sea continues to affirm Quang Ninh's appeal on the international cruise tourism map. With the advantages of natural landscapes, heritage systems, modern seaport infrastructure, and diverse tourism products, the locality is entering the cruise season with expectations of attracting more high-quality international tourist segments.
To effectively leverage this visitor source, connecting seaports with tourist attractions, enhancing service quality, and diversifying experiences are considered crucial factors that help extend length of stay, increase spending levels, and raise the value of tourism's contribution to local economic development.
