Itinerary

  1. Day 1

    Hanoi to Ha Long Bay

    Hotel pickup takes you through the Red River Delta on the drive to Ha Long City, with a refreshment stop along the way. Once you board the cruise, you'll head out onto Halong Bay and have lunch while the boat moves past those dramatic limestone formations rising from the water. In the afternoon, a tender boat takes you into Thien Canh Son cave to walk around inside. After that, you can swim, relax on deck, or join the chef for a cooking class if that interests you. Dinner happens on board, and then you'll stay overnight on the cruise.

    Start point

    Ha Long Bay to Hanoi

    Breakfast comes early so you can catch the sunrise over the bay. Then you'll transfer to a small bamboo boat and head into Vung Vieng floating village, surrounded by those rocky mountains and pretty quiet water. Back on the cruise after that, you'll grab lunch while sailing back toward the pier, and from there you disembark and start driving back to Hanoi. A refreshment stop breaks up the journey, and you'll pull into Hanoi in the late afternoon.

    Great introduction to all the Vietnamese/Hanoian food favourites/must-haves along with great stories, beliefs and traditions of the Hanoians by Sarah/Yen. Please make sure to arrive hungry as there are lots to taste and enjoy. I love the short walks and stops to cool off and enjoy the local atmosphere. The train street was a great way to top off the tour. Sarah is very friendly, a good story teller too. Tour is great value for money too. Highly recommended.

    Great guide who was really informative and friendly. Our guide Ben contacted us the day before to confirm timings which was really helpful. On the day we went to many landmarks and learnt a lot as Ben was very knowledgeable about them all. He also asked for any requests we had and was very happy to structure the day according to what we wanted. His English is good, would highly recommend!
