The most ideal flight after your disembarkation time is before 11:00 AM the 1st day or after 12:00 PM the 2nd day. As shuttle transfer service from Indochina Sails will return Hanoi right after gathering passengers who just finished the cruise trip, in case you take the flight over Halong Bay with the seaplane, you need to book a private transfer for transferring back to Hanoi.
