Flamingo is a one of the totem animals living on earth and bearing so many worth meanings. This kind of bird symbolizes for the long-life, elegance, wisdom, balance, good lucks and happiness and that is the reason why we decide to name our cruise’s brand as “Flamingo Cruise” Built up completely since 2014, this 4-star Flamingo Cruise has 3 floors with 14 cabins in total, in which there are 8 Deluxe cabins on the 1st floor and 6 other premium & suites cabins on the 2nd floor and its luxury restaurant & bar plus the sun-deck are on the top one.
In general, the cruise features spacious, well-appointed cabins and suites with large en-suite bathrooms, large sun-deck with comfortable lounging furniture and elegant dining rooms and bars. We have designed and fitted our boats to international standards while maintaining traditional style, creating the perfect balance of modern comforts and nostalgic ambiance. All cabins are well-organized and sophisticatedly designed by equipping a plenty of modern facilities & technology which look like you are staying at 3-star plus luxury hotels on land rather than a cruise in the bay. This is also the major difference from other cruises.
