According to schedule, the ships departed at 11am and arrived at the port at around 3pm the same day.
However, the group will not stay overnight in Ha Long, but will return to Hanoi. The reason is because the group is too large, and from many countries flying to Hanoi, so they will stay in Hanoi for convenience in picking up and dropping off from the airport to the hotel and vice versa.
At the same time, due to the large number of people, if you stay in one place every day, it will take a lot of time to check in and check out of the hotel.
