The cruise ship welcoming Vietnamese guests is Star Voyager of StarDream Cruises, manufactured in Italy in 1997 at a cost of 300 million USD. The cruise ship is nearly 262 m long, has 15 floors with 972 cabins, and can accommodate more than 1,945 guests. On board are three restaurants, a water park, a cinema, a mini golf course, a performance stage, a spa, and sports areas such as tennis, rock climbing, ziplining, and skateboarding.
The trip is provided by a Vietnamese travel company, with two prices: full package from 16.99 million VND per guest and cabin package from 13.99 million VND.
Mr. Tang Van Ngoc, a Vietnamese expatriate in Germany, said that when he saw the information about a cruise ship departing from Vietnam, he booked tickets for his family of four to experience it. According to him, the ticket price is not cheap compared to tours abroad, but departing from Vietnam helps save on travel costs and can combine visiting family.
Also choosing to buy a cruise ticket on June 13, Ms. Hai Anh, 35 years old, living in Ho Chi Minh City, shared that she had been to Singapore many times, but when she learned about the cruise departing from Phu My port, she decided to try the experience.
"I felt excited and a little nervous when I first went on a cruise on a long journey at sea," Hai Anh said.
In June, the Star Voyager cruise ship with a two-way itinerary welcomed more than 6,000 international guests to Vietnam via Phu My port on 4 days: 13, 17, 21 and 28, visiting Ho Chi Minh City, Cu Chi; at the same time, taking Vietnamese guests on board on the journey to Singapore.
Previously, if Vietnamese tourists wanted to experience international cruises, they had to fly abroad to board ships at major ports in Singapore, Hong Kong or Thailand. This process not only cost money for airfare, hotel and accommodation before departure, but also took time to complete visa procedures and prepare complicated itineraries. Therefore, having cruises departing directly from Vietnam makes it easier for domestic tourists to access, saving a significant amount of money.
