Which trip to take to Southeast Asia?

MCD

I'm trying to decide which tour to take. I've seen many posts about pre-tour trips to Ha Long Bay. I've also been told by a friend not to miss it. One of my concerns is that I am a solo traveler and don't know Vietnamese language, so I don't want to get stuck in a situation where no one has my back. Are there English-speaking tour guides? Will the tour pick me up and drop me off at the hotel in Hanoi? Will the hotel in Hanoi (Sofitel Legend Metropole) allow me to check out but store my checked luggage until I return from the cruise?

I know that the Vietnam, Cambodia & Laos trip includes a night on Ha Long Bay, which would alleviate those concerns; however, I think I would prefer visiting Thailand to going to Luang Prabang in Laos. What are the pros and cons of each trip? I would like to visit Hoi An (which is on the "Laos" trip) and Hue (which is on the "Thailand" trip). I also would like to go to China Beach (which is on the "Thailand" trip).

Thanks for your help.
