The arrival of a major cruise liner in Hạ Long on January 1 marked a buoyant start to the 2026 cruise tourism season in Quảng Ninh Province, with thousands of overseas visitors stepping ashore on the first morning of the year. More than 3,000 international tourists aboard the Malta-flagged Celebrity Solstice docked at Hạ Long International Cruise Port, ushering in the New Year and opening the peak season for cruise tourism.
The Party Secretary of Quảng Ninh Province, together with leaders of the provincial Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism, attended a welcoming ceremony and presented flowers to the visitors. The event created a cordial and welcoming environment to begin the year. Many tourists expressed admiration for the hospitality and said they were impressed by the province's efforts to welcome international guests.
A visitor from Spain described his experience as a memorable start to 2026, highlighting the breathtaking scenery of Hạ Long Bay, fresh air, and favorable climatic conditions. He praised Vietnam as a beautiful country with friendly people and distinctive cuisine. Visitors from Mexico also appreciated the bay's remarkable natural beauty and noted that their stay had left lasting memories. During their two-day visit, tourists were scheduled to explore key attractions, including the Quảng Ninh Museum, Hạ Long Bay, and Yên Đức rural village. Some groups planned to continue travelling to other northern provinces, such as Hà Nội and Ninh Bình.
The Celebrity Solstice sails on a regional itinerary linking Thailand, Phú Mỹ, Chân Mây, Hạ Long, and Hong Kong, accommodating passengers from Europe, the United States, and Asia. With a modern port system, abundant natural and cultural resources, and a strategic location on major maritime routes, Quảng Ninh is regarded as an appealing destination for both domestic and international cruise tourism. Cruise tourism is expected to play a pivotal role in promoting local culture, stimulating economic growth, and supporting sustainable tourism development in the province.
