1.3. A World-class Itinerary

At the 45th session of the UNESCO World Heritage Committee held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on the afternoon of September 16, 2023, the Ha Long Bay - Cat Ba Archipelago complex was officially recognized as a World Natural Heritage Site. This is also the first inter-provincial world heritage site in Vietnam.

Ambassador Signature Cruise itinarery

Ambassador Signature Cruise carries a pioneering mission for the Ambassador brand in enhancing the experience of visiting, relaxing, and staying in the world biosphere reserve of the Cat Ba archipelago as well as Lan Ha Bay, one of the most beautiful bays in the world. Despite having similar natural landscapes, this was the third time Ha Long Bay (in Quang Ninh province) has been honored as a world natural heritage (two previous times were in 1994 and 2000). However, it was the first time for Cat Ba Island (in Hai Phong City). 

A quiet itinerary in Lan Ha Bay - the forgotten heaven 25 km from Halong Bay sets Ambassador Signature apart from the other sister cruises. The cruise sails to the most untouched parts, such as Viet Hai Fishing Village and Dark-Light Cave, and offers exciting activities such as visiting fish lakes, bee houses, ancient houses, experiencing fish foot massage, kayaking, or taking a local rowing boat. If excursions do not take your fancy, ordering a massage and admiring the poetic bay from the airy sundeck or your private balcony is an ideal alternative for you.

1.4. The Center Of Events At Sea

Ambassador Signature Cruise events

MICE - a trend of tourism combined with conferences and seminars is becoming global. With many years of experience in the field of event organization, Ambassador Cruise does not hide its intention to turn Ambassador Signature into an event center at sea with a flat Sundeck design to maximize floor area. This is also the reason why Ambassador Signature does not have a rooftop swimming pool like some other cruise ships to optimize space for group activities such as Gala dinners, weddings, conferences...
