Drawing inspiration from a deep passion to preserve and celebrate the beauty of the World's Natural Heritage, Halong Bay, as well as to share with both domestic and international tourists the love and invaluable experiences gained from years of shipbuilding and maritime transportation, the Grand Pioneers brand has been researched, developed, and operated by the Viet Thuan Group with the philosophy of 'Passion for Perfection,' officially pioneering a new direction in the luxury cruise resort segment in Vietnam.
Grand Pioneers aims to lead the future of maritime tourism in Vietnam and beyond, pioneering distinctive journeys that blend modern luxury with timeless cultural values. Staying true to our spirit as Pioneers in the Legacy Journey, we aspire to chart new sea routes, explore unique destinations, and craft extraordinary experiences that honor both tradition and innovation.
As a trailblazer in green cruising, Grand Pioneers is committed to preserving the natural and cultural heritage of Ha Long Bay through responsible operations and sustainable design. We deliver exceptional, meaningful travel experiences that reflect our deep respect for the environment, local communities, and the enduring legacy of Vietnam’s maritime beauty.
Grand Pioneers redefines safety and comfort with world-class standards. Every detail is designed for peace of mind—from 100% purified and softened water for all onboard activities, to energy-efficient heated water systems. Certified Dutch bow thrusters enhance maneuverability, while a double-bottomed, double-hulled design offers maximum protection. As the first cruise in Halong Bay to feature a dedicated medical room with professional healthcare staff and fully equipped lifeboats, Grand Pioneers also ensures a serene environment with partitions resistant to noise, humidity, fire, and viruses.
Honored as the “World's Best Green Cruise Line 2024” by the World Cruise Awards, Grand Pioneers proudly leads The Legacy Journey with vessels engineered to world-class eco-friendly standards. From seawater-cooled DAIKIN air conditioning systems that cut emissions by up to 40%, to durable INTERNATIONAL PAINT coatings that reduce environmental impact, every element reflects our commitment to sustainability. Powered by low-emission YANMAR engines and equipped with HAN YOUNG wastewater treatment systems that meet the highest environmental regulations, Grand Pioneers sets a new benchmark for green luxury cruising in Halong Bay.
Spanning six decks and measuring 110 meters in length, Grand Pioneers sets a new standard for modern luxury cruising in Ha Long Bay. With nearly 19 meters of width, the vessel offers an exceptionally spacious layout designed for couples, families, and groups. Guests can choose from a range of premium room categories and enjoy standout amenities—including the bay’s largest four-season saltwater pool, elegant dining venues, multiple bars, a spa, gym, kids club, and more—for a journey of unmatched comfort and unforgettable moments at sea.
