The Magical Bay Is Calling For You

You will meet your English-speaking guide at Cai Lan or Hai Phong Port and join our small group for a unique shore excursion to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Ha Long Bay. Embracing nearly 2,000 limestone islands and islets, the bay is not only one of the most famous attractions in Vietnam but it is also a jewel in the crown of the world’s heritage sites.

Leave for Tuan Chau Wharf, where we will board a junk for a 6-hour tour passing through the core of Ha Long Bay. The area is a perfect site for swimming, kayaking, or simply drinking in the picturesque water scene.

Uncover the Hidden Secrets Inside the Caves

Ha Long Bay is renowned for its breathtaking emerald waters and enchanting islets and caves, which invite travellers on a journey straight out of a fairy tale. There are countless stunning islets with funny names that will spark your curiosity, such as Hon Cho Da (Stone Dog Islet), Hon Ga Choi (Fighting Cock Islet), and Hon Dinh Huong (Incense Burner Islet).

As we cruise to the heart of Ha Long Bay, explore Sung Sot Cave. Sung Sot means “surprised,” and its name perfectly describes how visitors feel upon entering the cave. Here, your expert guide will share stories about the formation of Ha Long Bay so that you can gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of its beauty.

Next, hop in our kayaks to visit a tranquil lagoon. As you paddle through the calm waters, marvel at the beauty of nature around you. This hidden gem, accessible only by kayak, is where you can soak in the serenity and untouched nature that makes the place so special.

Rock Your Taste Buds With Seafood Treats

Relish in a culinary adventure with a delicious seafood lunch amid one of the most breathtaking landscapes of Vietnam, and even the world! After fuelling up with the local dishes, cruise to Ti Top Island, a must-see in Ha Long Bay with a steep slope on one side and an inclined slope on the other side. You can swim, sunbathe on the beach or climb to the peak of the island for a panoramic view of Ha Long Bay.

On the final leg, return to your junk and head to Tuan Chau Wharf for a transfer to your cruise ship. We guarantee that you will arrive at the port in plenty of time and never miss your departure.
